This November, the Balloon Museum makes its Dallas debut — unveiling its much-anticipated first show, “Let’s Fly — Art Has No Limits.” Fresh off of highly acclaimed shows across Europe, the exhibition features a large-scale, luminous celebration of air and creativity. Originally a global sensation launched in Rome, the exhibit features striking installations by 18 international artists that promise to be fully immersive and accessible to everyone.

Balloon Museum is a concept from Lux Entertainment. Founded in 2021 by Roberto Fantauzzi along with Anrea Lucentini, Vanessa Arcangeli, and Jose Linguella, the entertainment company stages site-specific exhibitions that marry live performances with immersive environments and monumental art pieces. In its short, three-year run, the company has garnered 18 Best Event Awards.

The multisensory exhibition, spanning 65,000 square feet, will weave art, air, and creativity through large-scale, luminous displays. Located at Dallas’ South Side Studios, the exhibition will feature the works of 18 international artists, seen below:
