Sporting events
Sports & outdoor event entertainment
Sporting events have big open spaces and a crowd waiting for something to happen between the action. HALO fills that space from above.
The show has performed at the Julius Baer Polo Gold Cup at Al Habtoor Polo Resort — with silk panels running from the balloon to dancers on the ground — and at the opening of the UAE Football Championship.
Why it works
Built for open fields
Polo grounds, pitches and beaches give the balloon room to drift across the whole crowd.
A full-field finale
Silk panels from the balloon to a ground ensemble turn one aerial act into a spectacle across the field.
Fits a tight run-of-show
Inflation, rehearsal and the test lift are scheduled in advance with your production manager.
