About this emoji

🎈 Balloon is an emoji in the Activities group, event subgroup, first released in Emoji 0.6 (2010). Emoji 0.6 is the label Unicode gives to characters that became emoji with Unicode 6.0 in 2010, before emoji had version numbers of their own.

CLDR, the Unicode project that supplies emoji names in many languages, gives it the English keywords birthday, celebrate and celebration; that is what emoji keyboards match when you search.

It is a single code point, U+1F388, named BALLOON in the Unicode standard.
