Inflatable Images

History was made on Route 66 and Inflatable Images was right there for it!

Tulsa’s Route 66 Capital Cruise just broke the GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS® title for the largest classic car parade EVER - and what an honor to be part of it. Thousands of stunning vintage rides cruised 5.5 miles down historic 11th Street right through the heart of the Capital of Route 66, and our inflatables helped set the scene all weekend long.

This wasn’t just a car show. It was a 100-year celebration of the most iconic road in America with live music, food trucks, vendors, and more chrome than you could dream of. What an unforgettable weekend in Tulsa!

Watching thousands of festival-goers stop, stare, and engage with our inflatables was everything we work for. From towering custom designs that dominated the skyline to interactive pieces that pulled people in from across the grounds, every inflatable told a story.

None of this happens without the people behind the scenes: the crew who showed up early and stayed late, the partners who believed in the vision before it was fully realized, and everyone who brought their energy and expertise to make it all come together. Events like this remind us why we love what we do.

Big energy. Bigger impact.

We had an awesome time bringing this festival to life with custom inflatables that turned heads and drew crowds all weekend long. From eye-catching designs to bringing the Maximum visibility, this setup was built to stand out and create unforgettable moments.

There’s nothing better than seeing people engage, take photos, and truly experience Sabine's vision in a fun, interactive way.

If you’re planning an event and want to make it impossible to miss—we’ve got you covered.

The energy was unmatched. A major shoutout to everyone who showed up!

Student-Built Festival Brings Giant Public Art and 10,000-Duck Race to Downtown Cuyahoga Falls

Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio - Beginning March 19, twelve-foot rubber ducks will begin appearing across Northeast Ohio.

The oversized “Giant Quackers” are part of a student-led marketing campaign launching the Ohio Rubber Duck Dash Festival, a three-day event taking place April 23–25 in Downtown Cuyahoga Falls.

Meet the traveling flock:
Peep (sponsored by Akron BBB), Sunny (United Way of Summit & Medina), Splasher (Stark State College), and Scooter (Acme Fresh Market).

From March 19 through April 25, the 12-foot ducks will visit Tallmadge, Peninsula, Munroe Falls, Hudson, Stow, Cuyahoga Falls, and three Swensons Drive-In “Duck Pond” locations.

They serve as the lead-in to festival weekend, when the World’s Largest Rubber Duck towers over Front Street, student artwork lines the sidewalks during the All-City Art Walk, and more than 10,000 rubber ducks race for major prizes on a custom 50-foot inflatable track.

Where Art Takes the Stage, and Ducks Take the Track

The Ohio Rubber Duck Dash Festival is a collaboration between student entrepreneurs and student artists.

Students in the Six District EntrepreNew program, hosted by Woodridge Local Schools, design, market, fundraise, and execute the event as a fully functioning business. At the same time, students from Cuyahoga Falls City School District transform Downtown through the All-City Art Walk, turning Front Street into a public gallery of murals, installations, and student artwork.

“This isn’t just a rubber duck race. It’s a real business built by students,” said Emily Kilgore, Entrepreneurship Teacher. “They handle the marketing, the sponsorships, the logistics, everything. At the same time, student artists are transforming Downtown into a living gallery. It’s entrepreneurship and public art colliding in the best possible way.”

“When students see their work displayed publicly, especially alongside something as large as the World’s Largest Rubber Duck, it sends a powerful message: your creativity belongs in the community. Your ideas matter here,” said Jennifer Shulman, Art Teacher at Cuyahoga Falls High School.

An art student participating in the All-City Art Walk added, “When your art is displayed publicly, it gives you confidence. It makes you think, maybe I really could do something with this.”
