How long do balloons last?

Overall, air-filled balloons last much longer than helium-filled balloons. Depending on surrounding factors, balloon décor blown up with air can last anywhere from several days to several weeks, while helium-inflated decorations typically last for only 10-12 hours. Air-filled latex or foil balloons will not deflate overnight, especially when stored indoors. A balloon column left outdoors will last overnight, but dew and condensation may leave the balloon surface wet and slightly sticky.

We do not recommend putting balloon decor in direct sunlight or for use outdoors on windy days.

We are not responsible for any damage to the balloon or popped balloons due to outside factors, once the balloon decor has been delivered.
