Natalie Clark’s Dark Sky Pavilion
Inflatable Design Group creates custom inflatables for many different purposes! One such purpose is to enhance the stargazing experience of Wyoming residents. Artist and sculptor Natalie Clark commissioned the talented artists at IDG to create the “Dark Sky Pavilion”. This Pavilion is 28 feet tall with a 20-foot circumference. As you can see in the pictures below, it has two entrances and one sky window, described by Natalie as “reminiscent of the Artist James Turrell’s sculptural chambers which incorporate magical viewing sky gazing portals”. So, the Dark Sky Pavilion made a spectacular meeting place for the Solar Eclipse on August 21st, 2017. Also, the path of the shadow of this solar eclipse passed through Wyoming, making this custom inflatable pavilion a popular viewpoint! Inflatable Design Group helped make this rare event even more special for those interested through this custom inflatable pavilion. So, check out the cool pictures below!
Dark Sky Pavilion (Continued)
In addition, the custom inflatable stargazing pavilion’s design was intended to “incorporate a cosmic geometry on its shell”. According to Natalie, the inflatable provided more use than just a viewpoint of the solar eclipse. “The pavilion would serve as a promotional tool, provide a noticeable meeting point, offer protection from harsh winter winds, allow outdoor planetraium projections and serve as a warming hut”. So, these services will be available for many starry nights to come, as IDG inflatables are reliable and durable. The inflatable pavilion enhances the Wyoming free public stargazing program by providing these services. Natalie also mentioned that the cold temperatures at night are a main factor sending stargazers home early. Therefore, IDG’s inflatable pavilion solves that problem, keeping people warm, happy, and starry-eyed! So, consider this Autumn example when thinking of ideas for your next fall event!

Breast Cancer Awareness with IDG Inflatables
IDG is doing its part to raise awareness for breast cancer this month. Check out our educational breast cancer related inflatables. Every year, the month of October is dedicated to the campaign to raise awareness of the disease. “More women are diagnosed with breast cancer than any other cancer, besides skin cancer”. An estimated 42,260 deaths resulting from breast cancer this year (cancer.net). Therefore, please help to continue to spread awareness of this disease. In addition, join the cause by donating to the National Breast Cancer Foundation by following this link and clicking “Donate Now”. The IDG team has worked with different groups to create educational inflatables that address breast cancer and other diseases. Contact IDG today to learn more!
Inflatable Educational Breast Tunnel
IDG works with Interactive Exhibits to create educational medical exhibits using inflatables. For example, as you can see in the picture below, the “AmeriBreasts” are walk-through breast cancer exhibits. IDG and Interactive Exhibits give you the opportunity to participate in an immersive educational experience about breast cancer. The features of the custom inflatable exhibit include “inflammatory breast cancer, various stages of breast cancer 1 to 4, blood vessels, lymph nodes, and screening and early detection information” (interactiveexhibits.com). In addition, the inflatable exhibit stands tall enough for adults to comfortably walk through and view the various features. The outside of the inflatable is the outside view of a woman, with a white shirt on and the pink breast cancer awareness ribbon donned. Also, the pictures below show how event-goers participate in the educating lessons of the inflatable breast cancer exhibit.
According to a local Philidelphia news site, Phillyvoice, “Inflatable breasts draw eyes, people to wellness event”. The large inflatable is impossible to miss when walking by. Also, the exhibit is a very effective way of spreading awareness about the disease. One event attendee told Phillyvoice, “It’s amazing how you can look (inside)“. That kind of reaction is what we’re looking for! The eye-catching exterior of the inflatable draws people in, and the interactivity and educational lessons keep people there! Therefore, the AmeriBreasts inflatable breast cancer exhibit is perfect for events such as breast cancer awareness month events, health museums, hospital conferences or promotions, and more! See what Inflatable Design Group can do for you by checking out our Inflatable Medical Exhibits page. In addition, check out the Interactive Exhibits site. Help the thousands affected by this disease, spread breast cancer awareness, one inflatable at a time!
The Pink Ribbon
The pink ribbon has become the universal symbol of breast cancer. Wearing the ribbon is a simple way of showing love and support for those battling breast cancer and hoping for a brighter future (nationalbreastcancer.org). The ribbon’s origin is connected to Charlotte Hayley, who had battled breast cancer. “She introduced the concept of a peach-colored breast cancer awareness ribbon. She attached them to cards saying, ‘The National Cancer Institute’s annual budget is 1.8 billion US dollars, and only 5 percent goes to cancer prevention. Help us wake up our legislators and America by wearing this ribbon.'” (pinkribbon.org). Self Magazine’s Alexandra Penney, along with others interested in promoting breast cancer awareness with a ribbon later turned the peach-colored ribbon into the bright pink we know today. Though the pink color has not been around as long, the ribbon has been a universal symbol of awareness and support for 30 years now!
As you can see in the picture above, Inflatable Design Group does its part. Along with educational breast cancer inflatable exhibits, IDG created a giant inflatable pink ribbon. To add to the movement of wearing a small ribbon, the IDG team created a 10-foot-tall custom inflatable ribbon. The size alone is eye-catching, and the bright pink makes the inflatable impossible to miss. What better way to grab people’s attention than with a giant inflatable ribbon promoting breast cancer awareness? So, check out IDG’s eye-catching inflatable shapes and logos page for more! Contact IDG today to see how we can help you promote breast cancer awareness!
Cancer Treatment Centers of America Bracelet
The talented team at Inflatable Design Group created a giant bracelet to promote the Cancer Treatment Centers of America (CTCA). The CTCA is a network of five comprehensive cancer care and research centers and three outpatient care centers that serve cancer patients throughout the United States. Among other diseases, the CTCA has many resources to not just diagnose, but treat those affected by breast cancer. So, should someone choose to become a patient, the CTCA offers multiple options for treatment. These include surgery, chemotherapy, hormone therapy, and others. So, even though the CTCA did not have our IDG team include all this information on the bracelet, the organization received effective promotion. Our large bracelet included the CTCA logo with the name, “Cancer Treatment Centers of America” printed largely and clearly in the center. Also, underneath the logo and name, IDG printed the slogan, “Winning the fight against cancer, every day”.
This bracelet proved was an effective form of promotion and also helped promote cancer awareness to all those who came in contact with it. Also, you can see other custom inflatables like this on our product replicas page! In addition, all IDG products are made with durable, weather-resistant material. Therefore, the CTCA has the option to utilize this promotional product well into the future in any form of event. Indoor, outdoor, rain or shine, Inflatable Design Group’s products will stay strong.

How You Can Help
Every October is Breast Cancer Awareness month. However, fight against disease is important year-round. So, here are five ways you can show support for breast cancer awareness, according to the National Foundation for Cancer Research: (1) Wear pink during the month of October, specifically on October 18th. This helps spread awareness and get people talking. (2) Help a cancer patient. If someone in your life is suffering from any cancer, do your best to help them out when you can. (3) Educate yourself (and others). There is a lot of information on breast cancer and its effects, but not everyone knows about it. Let’s change that! (4) Spend wisely. Make sure you know where your money is going when making donations. (5) Directly fund research initiatives. The National Foundation for Cancer Research has more information on this here.

So, whatever they thought of, we brought it to vibrant life! Explore your artistic ideas with Inflatable Design Group! Contact us today or a free estimate!
Customizing Inflatable Products
Inflatable Design Group has a reputation for creating eye-catching custom inflatables. How do we create fully customizable inflatables? Well, first, we have wonderful representatives that communicate effectively with clients through email and by phone to estimate and plan the project. Then, we utilize 3D imaging software to visualize clients’ creative ideas. The 3-dimensional rendering is then stylized according to the client’s preference. Therefore, any color, design, or style is possible with Inflatable Design Group! IDG makes sure you have a part in every step of the process! Next, the inflatable is crafted based on dimensions to scale of the 3D model. In addition, IDG’s talented painters make sure the colors pop and designs turn out the way you envisioned! Furthermore, every inflatable is tested before being sent.
As you can see in the images above, the client’s artistic imagination turned into vibrant life! In this specific case, famed photographer and director David LaChapelle was the client. Therefore, the custom inflatables were part of the promotional art installations being photographed. As part of the Smirnoff Midnight Circus campaign, IDG created specialized these inflatables to fit the atmosphere. David LaChapelle’s photography style has been described as surreal, giving IDG a unique challenge. So, how does a custom inflatable company create art worthy to be shot by such an acclaimed photographer? Well, the paragraph above describes our customizing process and the photo galleries exemplify our portfolio. The first of the two pictures above includes our hard-working IDG team working on the giant inflatable head. So, you can see that our talented artists go to great lengths to ensure the inflatable meets the preferences of every client!
Custom Inflatable Art Makes a Statement
In another installation photographed by David LaChapelle, IDG created a giant inflatable tank. The inflatable stood as part of Diesel’s “Make Love Not Walls” campaign. Diesel’s artistic director, Nicola Formichetti, told Adfreak, “We wanted to spread a positive message and show that a brighter and exciting tomorrow is possible”. Our team at Inflatable Design Group did everything we could to promote that message through the inflatable customization. Therefore, we stylized the custom inflatable tank according to the client’s vision.
As you can see in the picture below, we colored the tank in multiple vibrant colors, striped vertically across the whole inflatable. Also, the tank’s gun barrel followed the same striped style. Our custom inflatable tank was utilized in the campaign in different ways. For instance, people walking by a Diesel store location found the inflatable standing tall behind the statement, “Make Love, Not Walls”. The brightly colored inflatable definitely caught the public’s eye, drawing attention to the campaign. Therefore, IDG supported Formichetti’s vision. Let us turn your vision into reality with custom inflatable art pieces! Contact us today for a free estimate!
Inflatable Art Interpretation
In addition, the talented artists at IDG created an inflatable for a 2001 piece by David LaChapelle titled, “Death by Hamburger”. The piece, according to Tel Aviv Museum Curator, Nili Goren, is a “criticism of some of the values consecrated by contemporary society – the addiction to fast food, the worship of anorectic models of beauty, and their destructive encounter”. One of the best things about art is that it is often interpreted differently by different people. So, looking at “Death by Hamburger”, pictured below, what do you think? In addition, do you agree with Goren’s analysis? Art makes one think critically, in a fashion unlike anything else.

Educational Experiences with Custom Inflatable Animals
Inflatable Design Group has collaborated with charitable organizations to help make the world a better place. For example, IDG created products for the Elephant Thoughts organization. Elephant thoughts is a Canadian charity, founded in 2002 by a group of teachers, principals, and other professional educators. According to the website, Elephant Thoughts’ “membership and volunteers consist of 1000’s of teachers globally. This helps us leverage the expertise of hundreds of education professionals to create some of the most effective and innovative educational solutions offered in any school, anywhere”.
To support Elephant Thoughts’ wonderful devotion to education, IDG created multiple animals. These animals ranged from 8-15 feet tall and had a tunnel-like space at the bottom of each inflatable. This is where the educational part comes in. IDG also created anatomically correct inflatable vital organs and spaces where those vitals should be. Therefore, one could take an inflatable duck intestine and place it in the correct location. These custom inflatable educational animals were utilized with elementary students following their animal anatomy lessons. Therefore, the students had the hands-on opportunity to practice their knowledge. This inflatable activity undoubtedly helped the students retain the anatomy lessons. The Inflatable Design Group was honored to work toward such a noble cause with the Elephant Thoughts organization. If you would like to learn more about Elephant Thoughts or donate, follow this link!

A custom inflatable from Inflatable Design Group can bring your characters to life. IDG has a reputation of high quality, accurate inflatable character replicas. For example, the picture below is a custom inflatable representation of the BeKyoot character, Momocheet. BeKyoot is an artist that creates adorable comics, illustrations, art streams, and merchandise. One of the 17 original characters is a kitten that loves sweets called Momocheet. So, BeKyoot had the talented IDG team create a custom inflatable Momocheet character to bring Momocheet to life for the many Comic-Con fans!
The inflatable pictured in the above collage on the left is based on the Momocheet plush toy. BeKyoot wants to advertise for their new merchandise while creating the best atmosphere for their fans. So, Inflatable Design Group provides the exact product needed! The custom inflatable kitten is very accurate to what the plush toy looks like. Also, the inflatable stands about 5 feet tall. This makes it a very photogenic inflatable. Therefore, fans flock to this custom inflatable kitten to take pictures of and with it! Standing next to THE Momocheet?

Adult Swim Custom Inflatables
Outside the convention center, the popular adult-oriented programming block of Cartoon Network called Adult Swim set up a carnival for fans to enjoy. This carnival, titled “Adult Swim on the Green” has been a recurring feature of Comic-Con festivities. As you can see here, Inflatable Design Group has created products for Adult Swim’s Comic-Con carnival before.
This year, the talented IDG team created a giant inflatable Early Cuyler from Squidbillies. Also, we made a large Rick head from Rick and Morty. Finally, we created a Robot Chicken head from Robot Chicken. The event includes food, games, and a giant screen showing clips of Adult Swim shows. The festivities occur underneath a large shelter. To draw in as many people as possible, Adult Swim had IDG create custom inflatable characters to place on top of the roof. Therefore, the carnival was impossible to miss! With Rick, Robot Chicken, and Early Cuyler looming above the treetops, many Comic-Con event-goers were attracted to the event! For your next carnival, event, or promotion, utilize Inflatable Design Group‘s talented team to make sure you can attract as many fans as possible!
Custom Interactive Inflatables
One of the most effective elements of entertainment is interactivity. When an event-goer is a part of something, he or she is much more likely to stay and enjoy the event! For example, as you can see in the pictures below, the Peanuts booth at the 2015 Comic-Con was a hit! To boost awareness of the release of the Peanuts Movie, they had the talented IDG team create a custom interactive inflatable. This bright red inflatable house stood over 20 feet tall, making it very eye-catching. Built as a larger-than-life replica of Snoopy’s dog house, fans couldn’t resist taking pictures of and with the giant custom inflatable.
Not only is the size and accuracy impressive and successful at attracting fans, but the inflatable was interactive as well! Fans were able to walk into Snoopy’s house and even slide out! The interactive fun that this inflatable product brought to the Peanuts booth helped make the event a huge success.

Custom Inflatables at Comic-Con Booths
Inside the San Diego Convention Center, there are many sections to the massive 4-day Comic-Con event. One of the largest attractions is the Exhibit Hall. This enormous room contains booths from artists to comic book writers to authors to television networks to toy companies like Hasbro!
Each booth host has one goal: to attract as many people as possible. Therefore, they must use entertaining and eye-catching resources. Nickelodeon had a life-size Krusty Krab, Chum Bucket, and Mrs. Puff’s Boating School from the beloved show, Spongebob. In addition, Marvel showcased statues and incredible accurate recreations of popular Marvel Cinematic Universe characters. A few years ago, Hasbro promoted their booth with a large custom inflatable blowfish from Inflatable Design Group. As you can see in the picture below, the blowfish swam above event-goers heads on top of the booth, attracting people to Hasbro’s products! For example, the Hasbro game, “Blowfish Blowup” was brought to life by the giant custom inflatable blowfish that IDG created. Make your ideas come to life with a custom inflatable from Inflatable Design Group!
Giant Custom Comic-Con Inflatables
Inflatable Design Group’s giant custom inflatables are impossible to ignore. I had the wonderful opportunity to attend Comic-Con this year. I had never been to Comic-Con before. However, I was thoroughly impressed by the booths, panels, costumes, and everything else included! There’s nothing quite like enjoying exclusive and highly anticipated entertainment with over 100,000 like-minded fans.
However, the Comic-Con festivities were not just inside the convention center. A large part of downtown San Diego is decorated to extend the current Comic-Con excitement. So, booths, carnivals, yachts, and buildings all participate in the convention. As you can see in the picture below, Cartoon Network promoted the Regular Show with a giant inflatable Mordecai and Rigby. These immense custom inflatables loomed on top of a building near the convention center, creating awareness for the show and excitement for fans to see Cartoon Network at Comic-Con. Furthermore, giant custom inflatables like these and the Adult Swim characters proved to grab my attention as I explored the awesome convention.

Therefore, the design you bring to us doesn’t have to be conventional or fit a template. We offer full customization. Below is a picture of the Bass Pro Shops inflatable money machine.
Brands and Inflatable Money Machines
Brand awareness is one of the most important aspects of a growing business. Utilizing the attractive draw of an inflatable money machine to improve customer familiarity with a brand is something companies have successfully done with IDG for years!
Here’s how it works; a company is planning a grand opening event. First, it needs something that can both attract people to the event as well as promote its brand.

Inflatable Money Machines and Custom Shapes
As exemplified by the Bass Pro Shops custom inflatable money machine, IDG can create your custom money machine according to the shape you want! The Inflatable Design Group team can create a square inflatable money machine no problem. The iHeart Radio inflatable product pictured above is an example of a simple option. This square money machine is brightly colored and has iHeart radio’s logo and name all over it. Therefore, the promotional aspect of the inflatable money machine can be successfully done no matter how simple or complex the shape of the machine.
Some of the more complex inflatable money machines are custom shapes. As long as the inflatable money machine has a space for the money circulation, the shape can be customized to your preference. The benefits of customizing your inflatable money machine include increased promotional ability and lasting impact on the customer. The increased promotional ability comes directly from the power to bring your product, logo, anything connected with your company to an inflatable reality. Bounty had a roll of paper towels towering above the money machine. Cres Cor requested their money machine in the shape of a 10-foot tall beehive. EZ Marketing had IDG create an inflatable money machine in the form of a brightly colored jukebox.
The pictured custom inflatable money machines above attracted customer attention by being unique. IDG made this possible through our talented team members and the creative ideas of the company representatives! Make your next inflatable money machine a custom shape!
Make a Statement with an Inflatable Money Machine

For an event, Inflatable Design Group created the inflatable money machine above for icanaffordcollege.com.

Custom Inflatables Built the Hype for Astroworld
In the weeks before Travis Scott’s highly anticipated Astroworld album dropped, IDG inflatables were utilized in attracting attention. Inflatable Design Group created multiple golden replicas of Travis Scott’s own head. Each inflatable head was about 17 feet tall and depicted Travis with his eyes and mouth open. The first inflatable was spotted on top of a popular music store called Amoeba Music in LA. As pictures of and with this inflatable head created a buzz in social media, fans found more heads appearing around the country. These locations included outside Minute Maid Park in Houston, Travis Scott’s hometown. On the Hard Rock Cafe in New York. Also, even on a barge floating through Sydney Harbour in AUSTRALIA!
The Travis Scott inflatable head went viral. Social media was on fire with everyone scrambling to find the next head to take pictures of and with it, some even made memes of it. The heads were a hit.
When social media grabs hold of your promotional campaign, you’ve won. Travis Scott and his team built the anticipation perfectly. IDG’s custom inflatables were an important part of this. Therefore, it’s a no-brainer that Inflatable Design Group is your go-to for promoting the next concert! The magic of inflatables is their portability, quality, and most importantly – they are very photogenic! People couldn’t help but take selfies with these giant golden Travis Scott head replicas, providing free advertising for the upcoming album. IDG is the key to build anticipation for your next concert!
Custom Inflatable Stage Props
The hype’s already been built. It’s now time for the big stage: the concert itself. Inflatable Design Group has the ability to bring your stage design to life! Whether it’s a giant lion face that stars the main stage of Life Is Beautiful 2016 music festival or custom characters that towered on each side of Foster the People‘s stage set, IDG makes it happen. The stage set and visual aspect of concerts these days have become increasingly more complex and impressive. It’s not enough to just have the performance – the stage set must be a spectacle that amazes the crowd. Each summer concert tries to out-do the next. So, make your stage the most eye-catching with custom inflatables from Inflatable Design Group!
The picture above exemplifies the “spectacle” that I referred to earlier. From the promotional inflatable heads to a giant inflatable astronaut as part of his stage set, IDG enhanced Travis Scott’s Astroworld tour.
Forbidden Kingdom Inflatable Dragon
Another example of going for gold with a stage set is the Forbidden Kingdom music festival. Forbidden Kingdom is a bass and dubstep music and arts festival held over a late February weekend in Florida. According to their website, the festival creates a story, a “Forbidden Tale” that paints a fantasy picture of the Forbidden Kingdom, complete with characters and a plot written by Joshua Dean Perry. The website provides a description of a major character – the dragon. “The Dragon is Forbidden Kingdom’s oldest and most powerful inhabitant. It lives to protect its life source and has the capacity to wield the mystical energy surrounding and upholding the Forbidden Kingdom, in its rawest and truest form” (forbiddenkingdomfest.com) IDG captured the essence of this dragon with an impressive inflatable that loomed above the crowd on top of the stage. The picture below is from the 2019 Forbidden Kingdom Festival.
Foster the People Custom Inflatable
In their 2012 tour, Foster the People utilized Inflatable Design Group’s resources to create characters that stood on each side of their stage. These characters exemplify the “custom” in “custom inflatables”. Take a look at the album cover for Foster the People’s 2011 album “Torches”. Two of the characters seen on the album cover came to life by IDG and stood over the crowd on their tour. “Foster the People’s drummer Mark Pontius explained that they wanted the characters that feature on the cover to be a motif throughout their music, the album and live shows” (Luther Codrington). Inflatable Design Group brought Mark Pontius’ wish to reality with custom inflatables. The characters provide a strong connection to the band, and that connection is established further when created in the form of larger-than-life inflatables and featured in the concert. Connect with your audience using custom inflatables. Contact IDG today!
Bonnaroo Inflatable Archway
Bonnaroo is another large festival that IDG has worked with. This time, the inflatable was on a smaller scale. IDG created a multicolored inflatable archway that stood over 10 feet tall and had the festival name, “Bonnaroo” written across the top. This archway stood over a popular walkway near the festival, serving as a perfect photo opportunity for fans to prove they were there. Following the common saying, “Pics or it didn’t happen”, this archway served as a designated group photo spot for festival-goers to post to Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook. Also, this shows that IDG can come through with not only large-scale custom inflatables, but with smaller inflatables. Our prices are fair for all products, but a less complex inflatable archway is a great way to fit your budget for this side of your concert.

So make sure your logo is in each picture taken and there’s some free advertising!
Swisher’s Marketing Campaign with Inflatable Misting Stations
Take a look at Swisher. A few years back, they launched a national marketing campaign to support its e-cigarette and e-cigar product lines. Part of the campaign was a “Vapor Tour” that included a booth, inflatable misting station, and something like a food truck, but for trying the new e-cigs. The truck stopped in high traffic areas and was displaying and offering products to those who walked up. The 2013 tour occurred from the summer months of July to September, hitting 15 cities from the midwest to the south. That summer was a hot one. It’s always hot in those areas throughout those months, but according to a national climate report, it was hotter than the 20th-century average.
One of the main parts of Swisher’s tour was an inflatable misting station from IDG! As they went from city to city, people in the area were drawn to the refreshing mist to escape the muggy heat. Once there, under the misting station, people are even more likely to give Swisher’s truck a tour. The misting station served multiple purposes; it was a promotional product as it had the e-cigarette line advertised on it. Also, it was a way to keep existing customers there for longer.
All in all, the misting station was an integral part of Swisher’s marketing campaign (the Vapor Tour). Especially for a summer road tour, a misting station is an important factor. The inflatable can be deflated and re-inflated, making it portable and very convenient. The refreshing mist is hard to resist. The customization makes the inflatable misting station look just the way you want. A misting station is a no-brainer for your next event! Let us know how we can design your vision!
Inflatable Misting Station Dimensions
Inflatable Misting stations can be customized to fit in small spaces at 10ft x 10ft size as well as larger sizes such as 10ft x 20ft. Also, like the House Misting Stations, the stations can be made to your specifications or details. The smaller, 10ft x 10ft misting stations are best for smaller areas, like next to a promotional booth or at an event. For example, the Durham Bulls minor league baseball team utilized a 10ft x 10ft inflatable misting station at an event and called it a “Cooling Tent”.
As shown in the pictures, many people were drawn to the misting station and were refreshed to escape the heat. Larger misting stations are utilized in events such as 5K’s or other events with many people in need of relief from the heat. Parks and recreation centers have utilized larger inflatable misting stations. Both of these examples are referencing the rectangular, tubular misting stations. However, not all misting stations have to look like this. Here at IDG, we specialize in custom inflatable products. For example, the Columbia Fire Flies minor league baseball team had their inflatable misting station look like a house, complete with triangle roof and rectangular doorway. Inflatable Design Group’s team can fit your specifications and details, so the sky’s the limit on these misting stations!
The Refreshing Use of Inflatable Misting Stations
Our misting stations have been utilized in many settings; including college campuses, car dealerships, airshows, concerts, running events and others. One specific example is the “Beat the Heat” mile, 5K, 10K, Half and Full marathon event. As referenced by the name, the event takes place in the heat of Springtime in Colorado. The relief from running anywhere from 1 up to 26.2 miles in those conditions can be found in the inflatable misting stations.
As a runner myself, I would like to make a personal comment about the benefit of these misting stations. Years ago, I was running a 3-mile cross country race in high-90 degree southern California weather. We didn’t have a nice inflatable misting station (I wish we did), but what we did have was volunteers on the side of the track with spray bottles full of cold water. They would mist each runner as he or she ran by. I honestly may not have finished the race if those wonderful people weren’t there to cool down my overheating body. I finished the race with a time to be proud of and that memory has stuck with me ever since.
That was only 3 miles, so imagine what those who are running almost 10 times that distance must feel during the race! I can attest to the refreshing feeling of cool mist as one is running a race, so if you are planning a 5K or other running event, definitely consider ordering an inflatable misting station from IDG!
Get Your Inflatable Misting Station Today!
Even if your event is not a running event this summer, you still need an IDG inflatable misting station. Here’s why: misting stations provide an opportunity to advertise (as mentioned earlier), attract people to your booth or building, and give event-goers a chance to rest and refresh. So what are you waiting for? Summer’s right around the corner! Contact us today to get started on your inflatable misting station journey.
