5-Stage Hot-Air Balloon Timeline Template for PowerPoint & Google Slides

This slide features a vibrant five-stage timeline using stylized hot-air balloon icons to represent sequential milestones from 2015 to 2019. Each balloon is rendered as a gradient-filled vector object—pink, green, orange, blue, and purple—and is anchored by a subtle basket illustration at the base. Years appear in bold beneath the baskets, connected by a flowing line that weaves through an abstract mountain-silhouette backdrop. Customizable icon placeholders within each balloon allow presenters to swap in relevant symbols—documents, user profiles, piggy banks, lockers, team icons—to quickly illustrate project phases, financial goals, or organizational milestones.

Designed as a master-slide asset compatible with both PowerPoint and Google Slides, all elements—including gradients, icon fills, fonts, and shapes—are fully editable via slide masters. The timeline’s horizontal flow can be effortlessly reoriented to vertical layouts or split into multiple segments, while grouped objects maintain alignment and spacing when resized or recolored. Text placeholders beneath each stage support detailed descriptions and callout notes, and the light-gray mountain backdrop can be toggled on or off to suit presentation themes.

The template’s vector format ensures crisp rendering at any resolution, from widescreen projectors to printed handouts. Predefined color themes and grouped objects enable rapid alignment with brand guidelines—swap out gradients, adjust icon color schemes, or apply corporate fonts in seconds. With drag-and-drop ease, presenters can reorder stages, add or remove milestone points, or hide baskets and connecting lines to create custom workflows. Accessibility features such as high-contrast shapes and optional descriptive labels ensure clarity for all viewers. It also includes multiple theme variants—light, dark, and monochrome—and is print-ready for handouts or whitepaper integration.

Who is it for

Ideal for project managers, marketing strategists, and corporate planners who need to visualize timelines, roadmaps, or milestone tracking. Consultants, trainers, and executives can leverage this slide for stakeholder briefings, investor updates, and training modules.

Other Uses

Repurpose this infographic for product launch schedules, budget reviews, change-management workshops, or educational roadmaps. The hot-air balloon motif can also illustrate aspirational goals, growth metrics, or employee onboarding journeys.
