One of the biggest advantages of custom inflatables is their versatility. With the right design and a little creativity, you can stretch your investment across multiple events, years, and even marketing campaigns. Repurposing inflatables isn’t just smart; it is essential to make the most of your budget while keeping your events fresh and exciting.
At Inflatable Design Group, we specialize in creating high-quality, eye-catching inflatables that are built to last for years and events to come. Check out your YouTube channel for tips and tricks on cleaning and caring for your inflatable to make sure it lasts for years.
The Forbidden Kingdom Dragon: From Center Stage to Photo Opportunity
One example of repurposing inflatables is the massive custom inflatable dragon we created for the Forbidden Kingdom Music Festival. In its first year, this dragon dominated center stage, breathing life into the festival’s main performance area.
The next year, the festival organizers brought back the inflatable dragon, but this time as a giant photo opportunity in a different area of the festival grounds. Fans lined up to snap selfies with the beloved inflatable dragon, and just like that, the dragon got a second act.

Don Toliver: Reusable Inflatables on Tour
Rapper Don Toliver took repurposing inflatables to a whole new level during his last concert tour. We worked with his team to create custom inflatable stage props that were larger-than-life versions of Don himself. At some tour stops, the inflatables stole the spotlight on stage, adding an unforgettable visual to his performances. At other locations, the same inflatables greeted fans outside the venue, serving as epic photo ops and helping build hype before the show even started.
Flexibility was key, and Don Toliver’s inflatables delivered.
Ozzy Osbourne: An Inflatable Rock Legend on Tour
When rock icon Ozzy Osbourne dropped his “Patient Number 9” album, he did it in style with a towering inflatable replica of himself. The inflatable debuted at San Diego Comic Con 2022, instantly becoming a crowd favorite.
But Ozzy’s inflatable journey was just getting started. After Comic Con, the inflatable went on a cross-country promotional tour, popping up at iconic locations like the Venice Beach Boardwalk, the Las Vegas Welcome Sign, and the Utah State Line. Even now, it occasionally makes appearances at special events, reminding everyone that Ozzy will never leave the spotlight.

Rolling Loud: Inflatables that Keep the Festival Vibe Alive
The rap festival Rolling Loud has also mastered the art of repurposing inflatables. Each year, their towering colorful inflatable sculptures make a comeback at a different place within the festival grounds. Organizers move them around the festival grounds to create new photo ops, fresh landmarks and exciting visuals that keep fans talking.
With about five different sculptures in various colors, Rolling Loud proves that a good inflatable makes great festival décor!
Start/Finish Line Arches: Double the Fun with One Inflatable
Another practical way to repurpose inflatables is by using an inflatable arch for both your start and finish line. Whether it is a 5K, marathon, or a charity fun run, these arches are designed for double duty with removable banners.
Customizable, removable banners allow you to use the same arch to mark both the start and finish line. This saves you time, money, and storage space. We offer many different styles and sizes, and each one is fully customizable to match your event branding. See examples of some inflatable arches we have made on our website.
