Christmas Hire FAQ
What is a popular Christmas backdrop?
Light up letters are our most popular Christmas hire - XMAS, CHRISTMAS, MERRY CHRISTMAS and festive words like LOVE and JOY are perennial favourites. Corporate clients often pair their company acronym or name in our larger letters with XMAS stacked on top for a personalised branded setup. After letters, shimmer walls in festive gold, silver or green are extremely popular, particularly paired with a Christmas balloon garland featuring foil balloons in traditional Christmas colours or custom colours to match your brand or event palette.
How much does Christmas event hire cost?
Our Christmas hire items are an affordable, ready-to-go alternative to custom builds. You can view all prices and book online instantly with just a 20% deposit here.
What are some Christmas backdrop ideas for events?
Christmas event hire ideas include light up letters for stage backdrops, venue entrances and branded photo moments, shimmer walls or our luxe green wall as an open air photo booth backdrop, floral or shimmer arches for event entrances, and Christmas balloon garlands for styled event spaces. Optional add-on Christmas trees.
Can light up letters be used outdoors or for longer-term installations?
Yes - our light up letters are suitable for outdoor setups and longer-term installations throughout the month of December. They're a popular choice for visual merchandising moments like Santa grottos, shopping centre promotions and seasonal activations where you want impact for days or weeks at a time. Contact us directly to discuss multi-day or extended hire pricing.
