Very happy with the bespoke inflatable ball I ordered from Megaflatables. I dealt with Owen Spence who was enthusiastic about my project. I needed a perfect sphere to fill a quilted artwork piece. The product was just what I needed. I was a little worried that air may escape while the artwork was displayed - but I needn’t have been! It stay inflated perfectly. I won a 1st prize in the quilt creations category at Europe’s largest Patchwork & Quilting exhibition. Thank you Megaflatables.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We recently had a replica boat made by Megaflatables and we couldn’t be happier with both the product and the service. From the initial enquiry through to delivery, John and Tyler and all at Megaflatables were fantastic to deal with. Communication was excellent throughout, they kept us updated every step of the way and nothing was ever too much trouble. The finished boat is outstanding. The quality, craftsmanship and attention to detail are exceptional and it exceeded all of our expectations. It’s clear they take great pride in what they do. Thank you, John and Tyler and all at Megaflatables for making the whole process so easy and enjoyable. We would highly recommend Megaflatables to anyone looking for high-quality inflatables and first-class customer service. An exceptional experience from start to finish.

CAPTIVATING LARGE INFLATABLES

The Result

The installation transformed Tate Modern into a bold, immersive space. The giant inflatable “Dash” sculpture brought energy and movement into the gallery, but more importantly, it had that instant “wow” factor. Inflatables just work for this, they’re big, unexpected, and hard to ignore. People notice them straight away, and more importantly, they remember them. They also photograph really well. The scale, colour, and soft forms make them perfect for social content, so people naturally stop, take photos, and share them without being asked. It turns the space into something more than just a display, it becomes part of the experience. As a result:

01.

A Social Media Magnet

The installation picked up strong organic traction on social media

02.

Photo and Video Ready

Visitors were keen to share photos and videos

03.

The Perfect Backdrop

The gallery space became an easy, natural backdrop for content

04.

Reach Beyond the Day

The reach of the installation went far beyond the gallery itself
