The inaugural Super Big Balloon Build is announced

Big Balloon Build has announced the first Super event to take place in July 2024 in Ohio.

The Super Big Balloon Build will take place from 14 to 19 July 2024, in Canton, Ohio. The build’s theme will be folklore and fairytales and will include battling fire breathing dragons, giant ogres, dancing fairies and mystical creatures, made from 250,000 Gemar balloons.

Taking place in an art museum, the build will become a work of art for all the balloon artists involved. The build’s partner charity is Arts in Stark, which uses the arts to ‘create smarter kids, new jobs and healthier communities’.

In a Facebook reel, Big Balloon Build director, Stuart Davies, said: ” This will be our first Super Big Balloon Build. We used to work with 125,000 balloons. This build will be quarter of a million balloons and 100 balloon artists.

“We will be creating the most unbelievable displays in Canton, Ohio, in July 2024. We are going to be based in an art museum gallery. You will be an exhibited artist for a period of five days.”

Those wishing to apply to take part in the build, should visit www.bigballoonbuild.com.
