How Many Balloons Do You Need for a Birthday Backdrop?

The number of balloons you need depends on how big you want the wall to look. Here is a simple guide for a standard birthday backdrop at home.

Small wall: 20 to 30 balloons

Enough for a few clusters around a Happy Birthday banner or foil letters. This is what comes in our basic birthday kit, which has 20 metallic balloons.

Medium wall: 50 to 70 balloons

Enough for clusters on both sides and along the bottom. Add one pack of 50 metallic balloons to a basic kit.

Full wall: 100 balloons

Enough for big clusters on both sides and along the top, framing a double-width fringe backdrop. Our premium party kits include 100 balloons.

Tips

• Mix two colours, or a metallic and a chrome balloon, for depth.
• Blow balloons to slightly different sizes so clusters look natural.
• Use glue dots to fix clusters to the wall.
• A hand pump saves a lot of time once you go past 50 balloons.
