How clients use a giant snow globe.

A giant snow globe is the same 3.5m walk-in attraction wherever it goes — what changes is the format around it. Below are the six formats we deliver most often, each with the brief we were given, what we supplied, the operational figures and what we would repeat.

Use these to work out which shape fits your site before you ask for a quote. If your plan looks like one of them, the paperwork, staffing and install pattern will look like it too.

These are illustrative formats, not records of specific client projects. Genuine, client-approved project write-ups will be added here when available.

The throughput maths

Every figure on these pages comes from the same arithmetic. A session runs 60–90 seconds of media, plus entry, photos and reset. At its quickest that is a group every three minutes. Across a real day you then allow for resets, crew breaks and quiet periods — which is why a nine-hour trading day lands nearer 100–140 groups than the theoretical 180.

Fastest cycle
One group every 3 minutes
Per hour
Up to 20 groups
Group size
6 adults / 8 children
Typical day
Approx. 95–140 groups

Formats by sector

Shopping centres & retail destinations

Multi-week residencies in atriums and malls, running centre-open to centre-close with our two-person crew. Booked to lift weekend footfall and dwell time.

Weekend or short-run residencies on hard standing, with weighted staging, evening lighting and agreed wind-speed operating limits.

Leisure venues & holiday programmes

Half term and school holiday runs where the goal is filling quieter daytime hours, often with tiered intensity and accessible session slots.

Brand activations & product launches

Short, high-intensity activations wrapped in campaign artwork, with a game mechanic, data capture at entry and content capture windows.
