Is your sports season coming to an end? While all good things must come to an end, hosting an end-of-season sports banquet is a great way to thank the athletes, parents, coaches, and sponsors for a successful season.

Here at Airheads Balloon Art, we understand how difficult it is to plan a comprehensive banquet with a good balance of entertainment, awards, and recognition. We are here to assist you!

Here are a few ideas to keep your ceremony fun, on track, and focused on recognizing everyone who contributed to the season’s success.

Decorate the stage to set the tone.

You may not always be able to select the location for your awards banquet, but that doesn’t mean you can’t decorate the space to look like a high-end awards ceremony. It all comes down to atmosphere and how you make people feel when they walk in. Consider balloon columns, archways, elaborate balloon sculptures (goal posts and basketball hoops), and one-of-a-kind balloon bouquets at the tables.

Create a feature wall

If your space is large, draw your guests’ attention to a feature wall or feature space (in that case, consider a ceiling balloon sculpture or a huge sculpture on the table). Your feature wall should be a focal point for guests, such as the speaker’s podium, or an area with a picture board or monitors showing video or photos from the year. If you are hosting a buffet, you can also use this area.

Balloons for the guests of honor

Having balloons customized for each guest of honor is a great way to celebrate them. It’s a nice little take-home gift and also a great way to set up a seating chart.
