The opening night of the balloons portion of the 2025 Balloons Over 66 was celebrated with a ribbon cut in front of the Comfort Inn & Suites in Lincoln. This year there are 38 pilots with their colorful balloons who are dotting the skies around Lincoln. The first official launch for the public was held immediately after the ribbon cut, with balloons launching from Open Arms Church on Rt. 10.

On Saturday evening there will be a 6:15-6:30p.m. launch from Open Arms Church on Illinois Rt. 10. Balloons will then return to the launch site for the evening glow event that is expected to start at approximately 8 p.m.
