Comment on Helium Balloons: How Long do They Last? by Sophie

Hello Amanda,

If you want to release the balloons into the air, you need to use latex balloons. Latex balloons filled with helium usually float for 8 to 12 hours. The larger your latex balloons the longer they would last, so I would recommend you choose 11″ rather than 9″ balloons and start inflating around 11/12.00 for a 6.00 am release. Let us know how it goes. Good Luck!

We have a through-the-night Cansa Relay. We want to helium inflate balloons through the night and sell them. At a certain time in the early morning, about 6 o’clock we want to let all the balloons with a note, go up in the air. What time should we start inflating balloons, so by 6 they can still go up?

Thanks

Hi Sophie,

I’m doing a science project on helium balloons and in order to put you as a resource I need your last name. I understand if you don’t feel comfortable giving it to me.

Thanks!
Jack
