Custom Inflatable: Gov Ball NY

Updated: Jun 12

This year, we were asked to create a colorful, giant custom inflatable sign for the Governor's Ball in NYC. One of the biggest music festivals of the year, the Gov Ball draws in people from all over the world. Standing tall in front of the famous Unisphere, this custom display was the perfect backdrop for photos and videos. Festival-goers couldn’t resist snapping selfies and group shots in front of it.

This custom inflatable for music festivals was a game-changer for the festival's visual appeal. Positioned against the iconic Unisphere, the sign's tie-dye design instantly drew attention. The vibrant mix of colors not only caught the eye but also perfectly captured the lively spirit of the festival. During the day, the bright colors stood out against the sky, creating a picture scene that attendees couldn't resist. At night, the sign was illuminated and continued to attract attention and add a unique touch to the festival grounds. 


Social Media Buzz

The Gov Ball inflatable wasn't just a hit in person – it took social media by storm. Thousands of festival-goers shared their photos and edits with the hashtag #GovBallNYC, and the inflatable sign was a common feature in these posts. Instagram, Twitter, and TikTok were flooded with pictures and videos of people posing in front of the sign. The colorful design and prime location made it a perfect spot for selfies, group photos, and even creative shots. This social media buzz not only amplified the event's reach but also created a sense of community among attendees, all sharing their unique moments with the same iconic backdrop.

Benefits of a Custom Inflatable

Custom inflatables offer many ways to enhance your event, providing numerous benefits that go beyond mere decoration. A custom inflatable provides a unique way to display your brand, logo, or message. By incorporating your event’s branding into the design, you create a memorable visual that reinforces your brand identity. This is particularly effective in crowded event spaces where standing out is crucial. Customizing your design also lets you choose specific sizing to ensure they fit seamlessly into any venue. Large-scale inflatables like this one are ideal for outdoor festivals, parades, or large venues. In contrast, smaller inflatables are more suitable for indoor events. Custom sizing allows inflatables to adapt perfectly to the venue, complementing the event layout. Compared to other large-scale marketing and decoration options, inflatables can be a cost-effective solution. They are reusable, durable, and easy to transport, providing long-term value. Once you have the display, it can be used at multiple events, making it a worthwhile investment. Despite their large size, our inflatables are relatively easy to set up and take down. They can be inflated in a short amount of time and deflated for easy transport and storage. This makes them convenient for event organizers who need to manage time and logistics efficiently. 



The custom inflatable sign at Gov Ball NYC 2024 was a standout feature, adding vibrant visual appeal and becoming a central photo spot for festival-goers. Its design and prominent placement against the Unisphere show the importance of how the placement of your display can heighten your display's impact at events.
