ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. – Another Balloon Fiesta is in the books. In addition to the weather hiccups, there were notable changes for the 53rd edition of the Albuquerque International Balloon Fiesta.
Los Ranchos held the first ever Fiesta event outside of Balloon Fiesta park with the Globito Glow event along Fourth Street.
The gas balloon races were skipped this year due to a scheduling conflict in France.
Eleven special shapes also made their debut this year, even as the future for the fan favorite “Darth Vader” balloon remains uncertain. A fundraising effort is underway to rebuild Darth Vader’s fabric. Until that happens, the 2025 Fiesta could be the sith lord’s last.

“Looking in the sky is like watching a Jackson Pollock painting,” Pagosa Springs pilot David Bair said. “These balloons are everywhere — just splashes of color. And you can’t take it in, it’s too much.”
