Reflecting on a Year of Unique Custom Inflatable Creations

With Thanksgiving this week, we are reminded of everything we have to be grateful and our clients and the custom inflatable creations we get to bring to life are at the top of our list!

At Inflatable Design Group, our greatest joy is working with clients who trust us in bringing their unique visions to life.  From first-time collaborators to returning clients, the season of gratitude is the perfect time to reflect on the incredible projects we got to work on this year. 

Welcoming New Clients and Projects

In 2024, we were fortunate to collaborate with new clients who brought our team fresh and inspiring ideas.  One of our favorite projects was a collaboration with artist Jessica Teckemeyr who trusted us to transform one of her sculptures into a giant inflatable.

This inflatable art sculpture, which included internal lights that made it glow from within at night, captivated audiences both during the day and at night.  It has traveled to various art exhibits and even has it’s own Instagram account: @glowing_spinx where you can follow along on it’s journey.

Grateful for our Longtime Partners

To our long-time clients, we are always excited to team up and create new ideas.  This year, we had the pleasure of working with Adult Swim again to design various custom inflatable creations for their Comic-Con exhibit.

From a giant inflatable skull entryway to a towering inflatable dinosaur photo op, and even a custom inflatable Rick and Morty ladder crawl, their booth was a fan favorite.  These inflatable creations created buzz among attendees and helped Adult Swim stand out leading to a successful event. 

We love collaborating with returning clients.  Check out more Comic Con inflatables on our site!

New Custom Inflatable Concepts = Giant Statements

2023 also brought us new, bold, and ambitious projects that helped us push the boundaries of custom inflatable creations.  One of our standout projects of the year was crafting 40 foot inflatable replicas of boxers Mike Tyson, Jake Paul, Katie Taylor, and Amanda Serrano for their iconic fight, marking Netflix’s live sports debut.

These inflatables traveled to major cities, generating excitement for the streaming event and drawing crowds in.  From promotional tour stops such as NYC to fight night at the Dallas Cowboys Stadium, they proved how impactful custom inflatables can be!  Read more about the giant impact these giant inflatables made in our case study.

Custom Inflatable Creations: A Long-Term Investment

At IDG, one of the reasons we love what we do is knowing that our custom inflatable creations are made to last.  We use the highest quality materials available in the industry.  This means that our custom inflatables are more than just show-stoppers, they are also a great investment that can be used year after year!

This year, we saw the return of our 25-foot inflatable Ozzy Osbourne replica.  This custom inflatable creation was originally brought to life for Comic-Con in 2022 and then he traveled around the country making pop-up appearances at various events.  This year, inflatable Ozzy made a comeback by appearing at the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame event alongside the Cleveland Browns.

We always enjoy seeing inflatables we have made in the past years continue to shine at new events year after year.  See more pictures of the Ozzy Osbourne inflatable on our website!

Looking Ahead to 2025

To everyone we have had the pleasure of working with this year – new clients, returning partners, and everyone in between – thank you for making this an amazing year of custom inflatable creations.  We can not wait to see what amazing concepts we will get to bring to life in 2025.
