The GlobeHire Operations Team
Install and crewed operation
The people who install and crew the giant snow globe on site — over 15 years in the live events industry.
Biography
GlobeHire's operational content is written by the team that installs, crews and operates the snow globe on site. Between them they have more than fifteen years in the live events industry, working on seasonal events and themed environments for retail destinations, public events, visitor attractions and brand campaigns.
It also includes the unglamorous detail: how long a load-in really takes through a service corridor, how many groups an hour a queue actually sustains, where ballast has to sit on soft ground, and what a centre's health and safety officer needs to see before sign-off.
Experience
- 15+ years
Live events: installation and on-site delivery of seasonal attractions and themed environments, from Christmas grottoes and winter wonderlands to bespoke brand activations.
