Snow Globe Hire Across Birmingham
GlobeHire supplies the globe range for major retail centres and covered malls with atrium height, city-centre squares and winter markets, large exhibitions, trade shows and conferences, and agency campaign launches across the West Midlands.
Exhibition and conference demand keeps Birmingham busy year-round. A branded globe stands out at a trade show or conference without competing against festive attractions, so non-Christmas dates are well worth considering.
Centres and exhibition venues often work to fixed install windows. Tell us the window you've been given and we'll confirm whether the installation fits it.

What We Take Care Of
Delivery & installation
We coordinate transport and installation around the agreed venue access arrangements.
Event operation
Where crewed operation forms part of the booking, event staffing is planned around the agreed programme and opening hours.
Venue documentation
Site-specific RAMS and £10 million public liability documentation are available as applicable to the booking.
Branding & campaign integration
Where branding forms part of the project, artwork and campaign elements can be incorporated into the attraction and surrounding presentation.
Booking note: Christmas is the busiest period for the globe range. In Birmingham, exhibition and conference dates spread demand across the year, so non-festive themes are a strong option outside November and December.
