Superflag

The world's largest U.S. flag is called Superflag.

The founder and father to Superflag, Thomas "Ski" Demski, first commissioned a 47 x 82 ft. American flag to celebrate the release of the Iran hostages after 444 days in captivity. The emotions surrounding the hostage crisis combined with the unfuling of the large flag produced an event filled with patriotism and joy and led Ski to go on to commission other super sized flags.

Today there are three Superflags touring the country bringing patriotism, passion, and American sentiment back into our society.

You can rent one of the superflags:

  • Superflag I (95 x 130 ft) requires at least 150 volunteers
  • Superflag II (160 x 300 ft) at least 265 volunteers.
  • The Superflag (255 x 505 ft) at least 600 volunteers

Ski, shown here, is no longer among the living.
