Air filled balloons in balloon nets hanging from the ceiling are released to heighten the excitement of your special event

To raise Funds for a School
Schools get involved with balloons to raise money.  Every year they guarantee a good return on your outlay.  You also benefit from publicity.  Get in touch with you local paper, if you explain to them the impact a balloon race/release has in a photo shoot, and as well as that the monies it raises for the school it will help to make your local community aware of your fundraising efforts and will raise the image of your school. A balloon release is an event people will want to watch.

Charity Fund Raising Events
A balloon launch looks great in the local papers and it will help to raise extra publicity money for your cause. If you advertise that the balloon race / release will happen at the end of the day you will ensure that visitors stay to see this instead of disappearing after a couple of hours.  Stalls and other ideas will then continue to make money throughout the rest of the day. It is also a good idea to contact your local newspaper to raise awareness of your cause

Sell The Balloon Race Tickets
Get as many persons as you can out there selling the balloon race & release tickets being sure that reliable records are kept.
 
Press Release Media Attention
Organise press releases and media attention.This is especially important if the purpose of the event is as part of a fund raising exercise.
 
Inflate the Balloons & Attach Balloon Race Tickets
On the day of the event - inflate your balloons and attach the balloon race labels. The nearer you do this to the time of the balloon event the further the balloons will travel. Dont start too early and never blow up the balloons prior to the balloon release day. Helium filled balloons will over time - lose their gas - but should stay inflated for quite a few hours - and of course once released into the sky - they will stay inflated for longer.
 
Place all balloons in the balloon release nets.
Do not be fooled into thinking that you dont need a Balloon Release Net - a Balloon Release Net will ensure that the balloons are kept together securely until the balloons are ready to be real eased.

Some balloon races and releases are organised using the idea that leading up to the day of the balloon release from the balloon net - tickets can be sold The tickets can be printed with the name and address of your school or organisation or company etc


On the day of the release / race the labels are attached to the helium filled balloons which, at a given time are released from the balloon net. Each balloon label has a request that the finder should post it back to the school. Prizes are given to the person whose label is returned from the furthest point. Many labels are returned from Europe.

Here at Balloon 4Fun we understand the three most important "musts" for organising a successful balloon release. One - everything must come together on the day. Two - it must be SAFE AND ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY and finally, it must be appealing and profitable. We will handle your order efficiently - we only and give any advise necessary to ensure that you have a successful Balloon Release for your Event - whether it is a balloon release just to celebrate a special occasion or a fund raising event.

IMPORTANT ADVICE


DO!
DONT!
Use only bio-degradable latex balloons and hand tie them
Use any foil or non-latex balloons
       
All balloons must be filled with Helium. Helium balloons are lighter than air and rise naturally - the gas expands causing the balloon to burst into tiny fragments hastening the decomposition process.
Attach ribbons, valves or string to the balloons being released as they or often non-biodegradable and can endanger wildlife.
       
Ensure that all balloons sold near the balloon release site are weighted and cant escape.
Release any balloons that are larger than 12 inches.

ESSENTIAL!
For balloon releases of over 5000 balloons you must have the written consent of the Civil Aviation (CAA). For releases below 5000 balloons, written approval is not required by the CAA.

The CAA can be contacted on 020 7453 6599,
and requires at least 28 days notice
