Balloon Academy

balloonentertainment_0_0No doubt about it. We love what we do and enjoy sharing our artistry with others. We can teach anyone 5 years of age or older how to make their own balloon creations, with our Balloon Academy offerings geared to the age and size of your group. 

Our Balloon Academy for adults starts at 2 hours in length and includes all supplies necessary for up to 20 people to have fun! Each guest will learn to make up to 4 balloon creations. Ask us about our Balloon Artist’s Create-It-Kit, an add-on fun party favor packed full of everything needed to impress their friends and family at home with their newly acquired skill! Balloon Academy starts at $450. 

Our Balloon Academy for elementary through high school students is a full-day program which can include up to 3 two-hour workshops where students work together to build a balloon sculpture which is displayed in their school. We have taught thousands of students how to create sculptures with balloons around the globe! Our daily rate starts at $1850 plus travel.

Get ready to zoom in on all of the details in this step and repeat balloon surround! 

Our client came across a photo of soybeans we had created with balloons at the @iowastatefair and asked what other crops were possible. ANY! All of them! Seriously, send us your challenging projects. 

For this installation, we got to revisit corn and soybeans, create a custom color balloon to make wine grapes, and gave cotton and wheat a spin for the first time. We love how this turned out! 🍇🌽🌾💨🌱

A love letter from Up, Up & Away to the “old” KC airport: Thank you. Thank you for sending us off on adventures and welcoming us back home. You sent us off to Belgium to help build the world’s largest balloon sculpture. You welcomed us back from Honduras where we met kiddos who had never had their own balloon. Many times your doors have slid open when we’ve arrived with suitcases heavy with balloons. When our work was done, your artful floors welcomed us back home. 

And then there were the times when we weren’t traveling…. The unveiling of @southwestair’s Missouri One, celebrating the children of fallen military heroes as they left on @americanair’s Snowball Express flights, the World Series fanfare with @delta, the adorable puffins @icelandair had for their inaugural flight, @jetblue’s Big Apple soirée, a fun kickoff for @alaskaair… We have had amazing celebrations within your curved walls. Thank you for the memories that have shaped not just our business but our lives. Grateful. ❤️

Well hello there, @buildkci!

We love a good color palette and theme and go the extra mile to make it happen with balloons. From custom creating balloon colors to designing balloon artistry that perfectly coordinates with other design elements, we are all in. And especially when it’s for such an incredible moment for our city. 💙✈️
