Snow Globe Hire Across Nottingham

GlobeHire supplies the globe range for civic event sites such as Old Market Square, covered shopping centres and retail streets, Christmas markets and seasonal attraction footprints, student welcome weeks and university events, and brand activations across the East Midlands.

Nottingham, Derby and Leicester can be covered in the same East Midlands run, so multi-site campaigns across the region are efficient to deliver.

Civic and centre teams usually request compliance documents as standard — we can supply them early so approvals clear alongside creative planning.

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: Nottingham's civic winter programme is planned early in the year, so approaching organisers well before autumn gives the best choice of position. Checking globe availability at the same time helps us plan crew and logistics.
