Arches, Drops & Races
Here’s the hot air balloon we made at Coombe Abbey for a 1st Birthday celebration. The basket was made using Quicklinks and we left the back open for children to walk in for that instagram photo. This was part of a bigger decoration, you can see more examples of the theme below. How to make […]
Some more Smiggle action but this time Candy Cane decorations in Oxford Street, Bluewater & Kingston. They look fantastic, the entire team loves them! Thanks for always doing such a great job 🙂
We were back in Liverpool to help decorate an evening VIP event, installing these arches using 16″ Gold & Black balloons. It was great to see the below photo in the Liverpool One office (the 2015 balloon drop).
Here’s a Pudsey balloon arch and 16″ Yellow balloons in bunches for the BBC One Show.
Here’s another entrance at The Alexander Stadium for Uk Athletics using 16″ balloons. Here’s an example of the same location with 11″: This shows the difference between 16″ & 11″ balloons on a 7 pole arch. Bigger arches are sometimes too flexible so I helium filled the 16″ Red & White to get more lift […]
For the launch of the movie “Mamma Mia Here we go again” the theatre show had a special night. I installed this entrance arch and some bunches in each bar to dazzle up some preview screens of the new movie. This was an install at 5pm and de-rig at 11pm….. so I got myself some […]

Decided to go with colour ‘Golden Rod’ rather than ‘Orange’ for this Greggs arch – good decision.
Here’s my first Vodafone Rainbow arch in The Bullring, Birmingham. I’ll embed some tweets below as I do more locations.
I worked on the London Marathon again this year. First things first, this is not my client and never has been – but I’ve worked on this event enough times to blog about it. So I first did it when Mars took over in 1984 (34 years ago). It’s a long time ago and it’s […]
Here’s the entrance arches I setup in Glasgow for UK Athletics. They were placed at the bottom of the split stairways outside The Emirates Arena. Dig the Scottish colours.
Another arch using 8 poles for Uk Athletics at the Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham. Here’s last years if you’re interested. 8 Pole arches are too flexible for outdoors but as there’s no wind in the arena it was a rare opportunity to have a play and GO BIG.
