Inflatable 2 m balloon for the Stop 5G movement
- Size
- 2 m
Digital Inflatables designed and built a printed 2 m inflatable balloon in 2019 for the Stop 5G movement, which called for a halt to the 5G rollout. The yellow balloon carries the slogan “STOP 5G!” in black letters with wifi signal symbols; another version shows a stylised face. It is a simple sphere, made to carry a message that can be read from a distance.
What did Digital Inflatables make for the Stop 5G movement?
A simple yellow 2 m balloon, printed with the slogan “STOP 5G!” or with a stylised face.
In the slogan, the black letters include wifi signal symbols. The face is made of oval eyes and a wavy black mouth. The balloons were photographed indoors, standing on a green floor.
The Digital Inflatables posts present the balloon as made for the movement, without saying at which action it was used.
What is the Stop 5G movement?
A movement that called in 2019 for the rollout of 5G to be stopped.
On 21 September 2019, a protest against 5G led by Frequencia took place in Bern.

Request a quoteWhy use a giant inflatable balloon for a campaign or a protest?
A printed balloon carries a message that can be read from a distance, is easy to move around and catches the eye of cameras and photographers.
A simple sphere is quicker to make than a character: few panels, the message printed directly, then inflation with a blower or as a sealed envelope.
For budgets, see the guide to custom inflatable prices; for planning, the guide to custom inflatable lead times.
