Christmas Snow Globe Hire

1. 1Our crew deliver, install and dress the globe on site — typically around two to three hours from arrival to ready.
2. 2The unit needs a 3.5m x 3.5m footprint inside a 5.5m x 5.5m operational area with 4m clear height, and two standard 13A sockets.
3. 3Guests are welcomed in groups of up to 6 adults or 8 children by your steward or our optional host.
4. 4Guests throw eco vegetable-starch artificial snow toward the internal fan, which lifts it into a controlled swirl for a timed photo session of around 60–90 seconds.
5. 5The snow settles once the fan stops, the next group enters, and the cycle repeats continuously through opening hours.
6. 6At the end of hire our crew de-rig, clear the snow and leave the space as found.

• ❄A 5.5m × 5.5m operational area with 4m clear height for the 3.5m × 3.5m × 3.5m globe, plus a separate queueing area sized to your expected footfall.
• ❄Two standard 13A sockets — 1.8 kVA / 8.0A. Where no suitable mains supply exists, the client arranges a safe generator solution.
• ❄A load-in route the kit can be trolleyed along, with a minimum clear width of 0.85m — tell us about stairs, lift access, restricted doorways, uneven surfaces, obstructions or a long push from the unloading point.
• ❄Two GlobeHire operational staff are supplied as standard; additional staffing can be arranged for break cover, extended hours or split shifts.
• ❄Access: entry is not step-free — approximately two conventional steps and a threshold lip of around four inches. Raise specific accessibility requirements with us before booking.
• ❄Realistic throughput: about one group every three minutes at the fastest, so roughly 20 groups per hour. Don't promise more.
• ❄Sign-off from the venue's health and safety team — send them our RAMS early rather than the week before.
• ❄Artwork deadlines. Branded wraps are the most common cause of a rushed build, so lock the design in first.
• ❄Staffing at your end for queue marshalling at peak times if you're not adding our hosts.

Our risk assessments and method statements are available to download, so your venue's health and safety team can review them before you sign anything.
