Cold-Air Inflatable Adds Pizzazz to Italian Festival

Inflatable Tower of Pisa at The Italian Heritage Festival in New YorkCustom Inflatable Adds a Sense of History to the Italian Heritage Festival

 Event marketers, The Display Company, were charged with creating an interesting centerpiece for the Italian Heritage Festival in Buffalo, NY. As the largest street festival in the United States, this event would attract thousands of onlookers.

What came to mind? One of the most well-known Italian landmarks ever: the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

The Display Company specializes in decorative display props for commercial and corporate events, film, television, stage productions and more. Needless to say, they have the creative power to generate ideas on the fly. What they didn't have was someone to bring those ideas to life. Enter Landmark Creations.

Working within the criteria The Display Company provided, we developed a cold-air inflatable, 30-foot-tall model of the Tower. This allowed the inflatable to stay upright via an electric blower system.  Thanks to its light weight and mobility, the entire display can be packaged for later use.  And that's just what The Display Company had in mind.

The Leaning Tower of Pisa got a lot of publicity and has now become part of The Display Company's inventory. "Buffalo and the surrounding areas look forward to this annual street festival. This 30' Leaning Tower of Pisa was a showstopper that was well received. We are looking forward to renting it to other festivals around the country."

Dual purpose. Revenue generating. Eye catching. Just a few of the things we love most about inflatables.

What Others Say About Landmark Creations


“Not only have they been extremely impactful, attracting hundreds of potential consumers to our sampling teams, but the ease in which we can install them has been a great help...”

- B. Gerety, Veryfine Products, Inc.

"[The logo] helped us create a better presence, improved foot traffic, became a photo backdrop and helped us have the best-looking booth at the events,"

- Laura Repreza, KTLM Telemundo 40

"[There was] fun, excitement, and encouragement for everyone to actually walk under/through [the arch] and it worked.  We have cheerleaders and small children at the finish line by the arch handing out stickers, saying ‘I did it.’ Before we had the arch, [people] would straggle in anywhere."

- Jackie Allen, March of Dimes

"The inflatable arch allows for safe and easy setup and takedown. People have raved about the arch and have made requests to have it at their events."

- Karen Klevesahl, SMET Construction

"We usually have to keep the arch up for at least 30 minutes after our races since so many people want to get their photos taken with it!"

- Art Boulet, Muddy Monk

“This has created tremendous buzz around town and we have received a great deal of compliments on the Big Tire. Exposure is my goal, and the inflatable does that better than anyone, including me, can do at these events. The Big Tire never takes a break, gets tired or has to take a call. It just keeps shining bright and the kids love it.”
