Planning a shop opening, product launch, roadshow or event? Explore how advertising balloons and custom inflatables can create a branded entrance, display your product at a larger scale or provide a visible feature for your promotion. Start with your goal, then see real examples and discuss a suitable format with APB.

Your campaign, your setting

Find a display for your promotion or event

Choose by what you want to achieve. These are balloon and inflatable display options; the right format depends on your brief and site.

03

Roadshow and portable promotional display ideas

For a campaign with planned stops, consider a product replica or branded stand. Discuss transport, storage and setup at each venue before choosing: suitability for moving between locations depends on the size, configuration and support required. Discuss the handling and setup requirements for your itinerary.

04

Branded entrances for openings and events

An inflatable arch frames an entrance and carries your event identity. Specify the clear opening needed for people or vehicles as well as the overall space available. Anchoring and site arrangements need confirmation; an event rental is subject to the date and package.

06

Outdoor advertising ideas for shops and premises

Ground displays, moving skydancers and aerial balloons offer different ways to mark a shopfront. Share photos of the site, available space, access and site rules. Outdoor suitability depends on the configuration and operating conditions. Confirm weather, placement and site requirements, including any proposed roadside setting.

07

Brand-activation displays and photo opportunities

A brand character, oversized product or hot-air-balloon replica can form a visual feature for a campaign or photo setting. Choose around your brand and available footprint. Discuss the display itself with APB; the display enquiry does not include complete activation or event management.

08

Illuminated logo displays for events

A lighted balloon stand places printed branding on an illuminated sphere supported by a pole and base. This differs from a large illuminated helium balloon above an event. Confirm the format, lighting, power supply and package you need; stand rental availability requires a date and location check.

Buying or renting a promotional display

Tell us whether this is a single event or a planned campaign, where the display will be used and whether you intend to use it again. APB can discuss purchase or rental against your requirements without needing a product name first.

For other formats, ask us about a custom display for your campaign.

Questions about advertising displays

What can I use to draw attention to a shop opening?
Consider a branded advertising balloon, moving skydancer or entrance arch. For celebratory decoration, explore balloon decorations separately. Space, access, power and site requirements determine which option is suitable.
What display can I use for a product launch or roadshow?
A product replica highlights packaging; a mascot represents a brand character. An arch or balloon may be more appropriate if the goal is to mark an entrance or location. For a roadshow, discuss transport, storage and setup for the planned stops.
Can you make a giant version of our bottle, packaging or brand character?
Send reference photos, brand artwork, the intended dimensions and how it will be used. APB can review the shape and requirements with you before confirming a suitable design and scope.
I do not know the product name. Can APB recommend an option?
Yes. Tell us what you want to promote, your venue and town, dates and available space. A reference photo is helpful if you have one; you do not need to choose a product first.
Which displays can be used indoors or outdoors?
Suitability depends on the display configuration, support, venue rules and operating conditions. Share the proposed setting so APB can discuss the requirements. Confirm weather, placement and operating requirements for your site before proceeding.
Can I rent a display for one event?
Ask us about renting an inflatable arch or lighted balloon stand. Availability, branding, setup, collection and service area require confirmation for your event date, location and package. Other formats can be discussed as supply enquiries.
What affects the price, and how early should I enquire?
Dimensions, shape complexity, artwork, quantity and requested services affect the quote. Enquire with your intended date as early as you can so APB can check what is feasible for your brief; there is no fixed price or universal timeline for every display.
Can APB help with delivery, setup or collection at my venue?
Share the venue, town, access details and support you need. APB can confirm the available service scope for that location and package. Delivery, installation and rental collection are separate arrangements to discuss.
