Balloon Emoji 🎈
Emoji Meaning
A balloon with a rope. It usually serves as a party decoration for birthdays or other occassions. Most often it's pictured red. This emoji may be used to congratulate somebody on their birthday, when you're wishing them all the best. After the movie “It” (based on Stephen King's novel) got released, this emoji has gained a new meaning, as an indication of something unsettling and petrifying.
The symbol “Balloon” is included in the “Celebration symbols” subblock of the “Miscellaneous Symbols and Pictographs” block and was approved as part of Unicode version 6.0 in 2010. In 2015, it was also approved as an Emoji in version 1.0 and added to the “Event” subcategory of the “Activities” category.
