Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
What types of photo booths do you have?
At Rewind Booths Melbourne, we have different types of photo booths available for you to hire. These include open-air, magic mirror, and 360 booths. The most popular among our clients is the Lumia open-air photo booth. You can find more details about these different booths on our photo booths page.
How much space do you need to set up?
To accommodate our open-air photo booth, an area of roughly 2.5 square meters is required. It is approximately the size of two large steps in length and width combined. This space will comfortably house the booth, table, printer, and backdrop. The magic mirror and 360 photo booths require a slight larger space to fit in. Submit an enquiry and we’ll advise if we can fit a photo booth at your venue.
What are the power requirements for the photo booths?
We need access to a standard power outlet located nearby, typically within a 3 to 5 meter range, to power the photo booth. This power requirement applies to all of our photo booths.
Are props and a backdrop included with every booking?
