There are two main categories of advertising blimps: the traditional blimp with crew and passengers, and the radio-controlled blimp. The large advertising blimp, a historical symbol of commercial communication, has been widely used in the United States at major sporting and cultural events. It represents an advertising medium that combines both impact and visibility. In contrast, smaller advertising blimps, of more recent design, offer greater accessibility for advertisers. They are frequently used indoors at sporting events, particularly NBA games. Their appearance can be customized to the advertiser’s needs. Examples include a parade of advertising blimps, a French advertising blimp, a radio-controlled blimp used indoors, and a customized blimp.
