World Balloon Convention 2012- Circus Themed Party

On Thursday night we had 'The Very Best Balloon Show On Earth'. The whole event was spectacular. The balloon decor for the room was designed by Tope Abulude from the UK, and what an amazing job he did! At the doorway there was massive clown arches. Upon entry garlands stretched from various sides of the room, resembling a circus marquee, meeting in the middle with a huge, LED lit clown face. There were clown centrepieces on each table, monkies, tigers and exploding balloons. Let's not forget the stage backdrop frame spelling out 'Circus' in brightly coloured balloons. 

Clown arches leading to the doorway. If this is just the entry, then you definitely want to go inside!
The stage backdrop and the dance floor. Animals, clowns & ring leaders everywhere!

And it doesn't stop at the balloon decorations. The food was exactly the sort you'd find at a carnival or circus. Including popcorn, corn dogs, cotton candy, nachos, corn etc. There was a photo booth with, yes you guessed it, balloon backdrops! And what party is complete without a conga line! This is definitely one of the highlights of the convention for me, it's only ashame that the night had to end!
Some of the best dressed of the night!
