Step into the enchanting world of knights, dragons, and castle from the 9th to 17th of March 2024 as Marina Square’s annual Balloon Exhibition is back this March school holidays with a display of fascinating balloon creations!

Visitors can channel their inner hero and play out their fairytale at Marina Square’s 6,500-square-foot central atrium, where a magnificent castle, galloping knights, and breathtaking dragons await. This enchanting display, crafted by 60 talented balloon artists from 9 countries, features approximately 250,000 balloons.

Adding a touch of magic to the event, Marina Square will be inviting 30 beneficiaries from Care Corner Student Care Centre to experience a fun day out at Marina Square. These young participants, aged between seven to 12 years old are encouraged to get creative as they make their balloon sculptures during the balloon-making workshop, and thereafter bring home their creations as souvenirs of the event.

Journey Through the Balloon Kingdom to Discover Enchanted Tales

The central atrium of Marina Square is encircled by grand castle walls, where open portcullises beckon visitors into a magical realm. This enchanting structure, crafted entirely from balloons, invites guests to wander into a world where dreams and imagination take flight.

At the heart of the spectacle stands a breathtaking castle, towering 7.2 meters high and spanning 16 meters wide. This magnificent balloon structure invites visitors to step inside and embark on a royal journey. Walking through the castle on a red carpet, guests are transported to a realm of wonder, where they can explore the throne room, adorned with balloon portraits, gold chests, swords and armour. Here, a majestic throne awaits, offering the perfect backdrop for photo opportunities.

Amidst the enchantment, an adorable prince stands alongside his 5-meter-tall dragon, while a beautiful princess awaits beside her carriage and unicorns. Visitors can raise their swords in triumph as they come face to face with a gallant knight on horseback, with castle guards standing watch at the entrance.

Keep those cameras ready as there will be photo spots galore. Visitors are invited to snap pictures while dressed up as chivalrous knights, beautiful princesses, or charming princes, adding to the magical atmosphere surrounding the castle.

“We are thrilled to bring back the Balloon Extravaganza to Marina Square, offering visitors an enchanting experience filled with magic and wonder. This year’s display invites guests of all ages to rediscover the enchantment of childhood dreams and fairytales,” says Ms Chan Yien Mei, General Manager for Marina Square.

She adds, “Our commitment to building inclusive communities extends to our mall activities, and this collaboration with the Care Corner Student Care Centre allows more children to find joy and purpose through balloon creations. Together, we strive to create unforgettable and inspiring moments, bringing smiles to their faces and nurturing their big dreams.”
