Lots of people have been asking us for giant inflatable spheres recently, so we’ve been kept busy designing and making giant balloons and hot air balloon inflatables too. It’s wonderful to know that Spring is underway and life is returning to normal again. Bring on the festivals and sports events! The sphere shape is a wonderful design for an inflatable …
When Covent Garden came to us with the idea of floating a giant inflatable rainbow over their site we agreed that it would be a great idea. What better way could there be to demonstrate the hope we all share that better times are around the corner? What’s more the rainbow has become the symbol of not only hope but …
The nearest Saturday to Remembrance Day is always the day of the Lord Mayor’s Show. We know this because we have made inflatables and travelled to London Wall to install them every year for the last 23 years! Compared with the 800 years that Lord Mayor’s Show has been running, 23 years makes us newcomers to the event! However, we …
Hunter Boots approached us here at ABC Inflatables in the late summer having been very impressed with the 10 meter high inflatable Burberry Bears we made last year. They asked if we could make a giant inflatable representation of their luxury backpacks that were just being released on the market. This was part of their “Hunt the backpack campaign” to …
It was a fine morning in late August when we set up this impressive 4 meter diameter sphere. As you can see, we had printed it to represent a traditional gas balloon from the 19th Century. With a real hot air balloon basket to complete the picture it really did look like a period Victorian scene. Which was the whole …
April was all about ABC inflatable spheres! ABC are dab hands at creating inflatable spheres for use at outdoor and indoor events. We must have made hundreds, if not thousands, over the years. They are great for parades, sporting occasions, exhibitions and any other event where you need to make an impression. They carry a client’s logo and branding and …
In February, we were busy with one of our favourite commissions! Anya Hindmarch asked us to help once more with her amazing love letter to London. After the phenomenal success of last year’s Chubby Hearts project, it was exciting to be involved again. In 2018, Anya created a ‘love letter to London’ to coincide with London Fashion Week. She floated …
November brings the Lord Mayor’s Show on the nearest Saturday to Remembrance Sunday, one of our absolute favourite events of the year. It meant an early start to get up to London to help all our clients with their inflatables. There is always so much excitement in the build up, before the procession starts. It is great fun watching the different …
One of the most prestigious commissions we have ever had – and certainly one of the biggest! – was from world-famous fashion house Burberry. We had a multiple order from them for several giant cold air-filled Burberry Bear inflatables. Burberry’s new creative director Riccardo Tisci has redesigned the company’s logo. He has now intertwined the initials of the founder – …
August has been just as busy as July. We made a series of slightly unusual cold air-filled inflatables to be used at different outdoor events. The first of our cold air-filled inflatables for August was our giant Cow. Our good friend and artist Mark Sephton, designed her. Doesn’t she look brilliant?! Everyone loves a giant inflatable animal and she certainly …
