Advertising Balloons Direct

The balloon does one job: it makes people notice a place they have driven past a hundred times without seeing.

What it costs

Every price below is current for 2026. Plain means the balloon on its own; printed means your artwork on it. There is no quote form standing between you and the number.

How it works

We size the balloon to the site rather than the photograph. That usually means asking about the wind, the anchor points and what is overhead.

Gyms and fitness studios

January is the whole year for a gym. A balloon during the first three weeks catches people who have decided to join something but not yet decided where.

Real estate open houses

An open house is advertised to the street, not the internet, on the day itself. A balloon marks the property from both ends of the road.

Campaigns and public information

Campaign visibility is legally temporary and practically urgent. Inflatables suit both conditions better than anything that needs planning permission.

Holiday weekend sales

Holiday weekend traffic is heavier and slower than normal, which is the ideal condition for outdoor advertising that depends on being looked at.

Closing and clearance sales

Clearance sales need urgency more than reach. A balloon reads as temporary in a way that a banner does not, which is exactly the message: this is happening now and it will not be here next month.

Questions we get

Can we reuse it next year?

That is the normal pattern. Stored dry and out of the sun, a balloon comes out for the same sale for several years running.

How long does a balloon last?

The polyurethane we weld is rated in years of outdoor use, not weeks. What wears first is usually the printing on a balloon flown in strong sun every day.

Do I need a permit?

It depends entirely on the city and how high you fly. Most sites under fifty feet on private property are straightforward, but ring your local planning office first.

What we build

• Advertising blimps — Helium blimps from 10 to 30 feet, flown on a tether above the building. Visible from roads that cannot see your sign.
• Cold-air inflatables — Ground-standing shapes, characters and product replicas, run on a quiet blower. No helium.
• Round balloons — The classic sales-event balloon, 4.5 to 14 feet across. The cheapest way into outdoor advertising.
