The basic portion of this calculator allows you to calculate any of the variables shown directly above.
The advanced version of this calculator allows you to select the type of arch (single or double layer) and provides an estimated cost based on the inputs.
Use the calculate button when all known values have been entered and use the reset button when you want to clear the values from the calculator.
Enter the radius of each balloon, the total number of balloons, and the height of the arch into the calculator to determine the total length of the balloon arch; this calculator can also evaluate any of the variables given the others are known.
The following formula is used to calculate the total length of a balloon arch:
L = (2 * π * r * n) + (2 * h)
To calculate the total length of the balloon arch, multiply the radius of each balloon by 2π and by the total number of balloons. Add the product to twice the height of the arch.
A balloon arch is a decorative feature often used at events such as weddings, parties, and corporate functions. It is typically made by inflating numerous balloons, usually of varying colors and sizes, and attaching them to a flexible frame or string in an arch shape. The balloons can be arranged in a uniform pattern or in a more random, organic style, depending on the desired aesthetic. The arch can be used as a focal point, such as a stage backdrop or entranceway, or to frame a specific area, like a photo booth or dessert table. Balloon arches can be further embellished with elements like flowers, foliage, or themed decorations to match the event’s decor.
