The 2018 Anniversary Event celebrated the third anniversary of Rocket League as well as the tenth anniversary of its predecessor, Supersonic Acrobatic Rocket-Powered Battle-Cars. The event ran from July 9 to July 23, 2018. An 'Anniversary' Playlist was added to the Casual Playlists page, which featured the Throwback Stadium arena, with the goal layout being reminiscent of SARPBC.
Balloons were a currency players could earn throughout the event by playing matches online, used to redeem items in the event store (shown below).

Trivia[]
@RocketLeague on Twitter: "Heads up! Throwback Stadium will also feature SARPBC-style ball weight, so expect the ball on Throwback (and only Throwback) to act a little ‘lighter’ than normal."
