    Not sure whether you'd call them wholesalers but these guys are based in Ashbourne and seem to have everything you'll need. They also do training courses.

    There's also Barry's Balloons Party Shop in Dublin 11.

    Sorry to re-open an old thread, I was wondering if anyone with an insight into the balloon manufacturing side of things has any suggestion on where I could get a foil balloon made up. It's part of an art project I am working on and would need to conform to a completely custom design I have made. I'm not quite sure if its possible or not.

    Why not contact the companies mentioned above who are the most likely to be able to answer your question?

    Unlikely to be an interesting business opportunity for any supplier. They all buy in bulk from China, none made here.

    If its a project, and just a few needed, then get plain 18" foil balloons (available in tons of colours). Have your design printed on a suitable material to the exact size of the balloon, attach it and then inflate the balloon.
