5 m giant inflatable Earth globe with internal light
- Size
- 5 m
Digital Inflatables designed and made a 5 m giant inflatable Earth globe in 2019 for the “solarworldtour” project, with internal lighting and a continuous 360° rotation. Its printed skin shows the planet seen from space: blue oceans, white clouds and landmasses. Hung in a hall, it floats above the audience and glows when the room goes dark.
What does the 5 m inflatable globe look like?
It is an inflatable sphere printed with a satellite-style view of the planet: blue oceans, white clouds and landmasses.
In one photo, thin white ropes hold the globe in a wooden-floored hall, next to a person reaching up who looks tiny beside it.
In a dark room, it is lit from inside and hangs above lit metal tables.
The post caption says it was made for "solarworldtour".
How can an inflatable globe rotate and light up?
This one has internal lighting and turns continuously through 360°, according to the Digital Inflatables post.
Light placed inside shines through the printed skin, so the globe becomes the light source itself, with no spotlight aimed at it.
A slow rotation brings the oceans and continents past the whole audience, wherever people stand in the room.

Request a quoteHow do you hang a giant inflatable sphere indoors?
It is attached to the roof structure or a stage truss, then steadied with thin cables or ropes, as with this globe.
Before ordering, check the ceiling height, the available rigging points and the power supply.
Lead times are covered in the guide to custom inflatable lead times, budgets in the guide to custom inflatable structure prices. The workshop also made an illuminated inflatable moon.
