What happens when you gather together 60 fabulous balloon artists, from all over Ukraine?<\/p>\n

You get the amazing Odessa Balloon Fest, organised by our Gemar Ambassador Veronika Golubeva<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The participants were supervised by 13 wonderful mentors, and special guest Irina Lobanova<\/a>, as they spent 2.5 days creating a range of stunning sculptures. It took one hundred thousand balloons<\/strong> to complete everything, and the results are truly breathtaking.<\/p>\n

Such beautiful artwork deserves to be shared with the world, and that is exactly what happened. Odessa city was holding a festival entitled \u201cI want to go to Odessa\u201d<\/strong>, which the balloon artists were more than happy to join. If beautiful balloon-covered floats don\u2019t make people want to visit the coastal city, then we don\u2019t know what will!<\/p>\n

From Poseidon on a majestic throne, surrounded by sea creatures, to floating jellyfish and even a yellow submarine, the sculptures joined a parade through the city and were admired by all. Balloons cannot fail to bring a smile to anyone\u2019s face and these had us happily dreaming of days spent by the sea.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s not all though, there was also an eco flashmob entitled \u201cHold the balloons\u201d.<\/strong>\u00a0Swimmers took to the ocean accompanied by beautiful balloons and had a wonderful time bobbing among the waves! The event was intended to spread awareness of balloons as an environmentally responsible and sustainable option.<\/p>\n

Balloons are not made of plastic, in fact Gemar balloons are made from 100% natural latex. Of course litter of any kind should be avoided but with every balloon safely popped and disposed of this event showed that they can be environmentally friendly.<\/p>\n
