Inflatable photo booth hire (a Selfie Pod inside a fully enclosed inflatable cabin) for weddings, milestone birthdays, corporate parties and brand activations — 2×6 instant strip prints, branded overlays, full software experience library. Surrey, London and UK-wide.
Guests step inside the inflatable cabin, tap start on the Selfie Pod's touchscreen, and a built-in HD camera with a soft fill light captures the sequence. A 2×6 photo strip lands in the tray seconds later; digital copies (photo, GIF or boomerang) are shared straight to phones via QR, email, SMS or AirDrop. The whole event uploads to a branded online gallery delivered to the host afterwards.
The cabin enclosure changes the dynamic. Open-style booths put guests on display in front of the whole room; the inflatable cabin gives them a private space to be silly — which is exactly where the most candid shots come from. The puffy tufted walls also look like a deliberate piece of styling on the floor — distinctive without being heavy.
We deliver, set up, inflate, test, and pack down. Hires run attended or unattended — tell us which at quote stage.
Everything you need for a stress-free experience. Just tell us where and when.
Same internals, different shell. Inside the inflatable cabin sits a full Selfie Pod (same HD camera, same 2×6 dye-sub prints, same software library); what's different is the inflatable walls around it. Pick the inflatable if you want the cabin enclosure and the privacy that goes with it — pick the Selfie Pod for the slim modern stand-up look in a smaller footprint.
About 2.5m × 2.5m on the floor and around 2.4m tall once inflated. We need a flat, level area slightly larger than that so the walls aren't pressed against anything, plus a metre or so of clearance at the entrance for guests to step in and out.
Comfortably 4–6 standing adults for a group shot, with bigger group shots squeezing in. The Selfie Pod chassis sits at one end of the cabin and guests pose in front of it, so capacity comes from the floor area in front of the camera.
Yes — a quiet blower runs throughout the hire to keep the structure inflated. It's low-level enough that it won't disturb speeches or live music once the room's busy.
Yes. The blower and inflatable shell aren't rated for outdoor use — no garden parties or uncovered events for this one. For outdoor-friendly options the open-air Selfie Pod, Magic Mirror and Vintage Photo Booth all run on covered surfaces (marquees, gazebos, building canopies).
Yes — 2×6 photo strips (four shots stacked vertically) from the Selfie Pod's dye-sublimation printer inside, dispensed seconds after each capture. Dye-sub means dry, smudge-proof prints ready to handle straight out of the tray. Single 6×4 prints aren't an option on this booth — every print is a strip.
Yes — guests pick on the Selfie Pod's touchscreen. The standard mode is a still photo (which is what prints), with GIF and boomerang options for the digital share. GIFs and boomerangs are digital-only — the print is always a still.
Three ways at once. A 2×6 photo strip lands in the tray. Guests can scan a QR code on the Selfie Pod's screen to download the digital copy (plus the GIF/boomerang if they made one) to their phone, or share by email, SMS or AirDrop straight from the booth. After the event the host gets a branded online gallery of every shot.
Either — your call. We run hires attended (a Surrey FaceBooth team member at the booth throughout, working the queue, handling props, helping with sharing) or unattended (self-service touchscreen; a team member is in the area for the duration of your hire). The Selfie Pod's touchscreen is designed for guests of every age to use solo, so plenty of hires run unattended without issue.
Yes — a branded overlay is included on every hire as standard. Send us your logo, wedding monogram, event name or hashtag at booking and it's applied to every photo strip and every digital share.
Almost the entire Surrey FaceBooth experience library — same as the open-air Selfie Pod. The Kardashian Glam Booth, Newspaper & Magazine Cover, AI Photo Booth, Elf Yourself AI and custom layouts all run inside the inflatable cabin. The only experience that needs different kit is the Green Screen Dream Machine, which uses a dedicated booth.
Yes — kids love the "step inside the cabin" feel and the inflatable walls are softer than rigid panels. Our attendant supervises throughout to keep things calm. For dedicated kids' events the Kids Selfie Pod is a separate unit at a lower default screen height with a curated kid-friendly overlay library.
Both are enclosed-cabin booths, different chassis. The Oval Enclosed Photo Booth is a hard-walled cabin (white, black or wood finish) with a DSLR camera and studio-style lighting — built for the premium-finish look. The inflatable cabin is a soft-walled enclosure around a Selfie Pod — same Selfie Pod kit you'd get in our open-air booth, with the privacy of a four-walled cabin. Pick the inflatable for the playful step-inside feel; pick the oval enclosed for the polished hard-finish look.
Different format entirely. The Magic Mirror Photo Booth is a full-length mirror with an interactive touch-screen front — guests stand in front of it, no enclosure. The inflatable is an enclosed cabin guests step into for the privacy and the cabin feel.
The inflatable cabin walls effectively act as the backdrop — the structure itself is the "set" guests stand inside. If you want a specific look (sequin wall, floral wall, custom branded printed backdrop), the open-air Selfie Pod is the better pick; that runs with separate backdrop add-ons.
Yes — popular wedding and milestone-birthday combination. The Audio Guestbook sits beside the cabin entrance (or on a side table) and guests leave a voice message after they grab their print. One booking, one delivery.
Yes — props are included as standard. The exact selection rotates depending on what's in the kit on the day. If you've got a specific theme in mind (Christmas, Gatsby, 70s disco etc.) flag it at quote stage and we'll do our best to match.
Pricing depends on event type, distance from our Surrey base, hire duration, and any add-ons. Use the instant quote builder to get a tailored figure in under a minute — drop in your date, postcode and guest count and we'll come straight back. Corporate and brand-event pricing is on a separate tier to weddings and private parties.
As early as you can — peak Saturday wedding dates and December corporate parties book out furthest ahead. Weekday and off-peak dates are often available with much shorter notice. Send your date and postcode through the instant quote and we'll confirm availability straight away.
Yes — for corporate events, brand activations and product launches we can email-gate the digital download (guests enter their email before getting their photo) and send you a post-event report. Useful for lead generation at activations. Flag this at quote stage so we can configure the share screen accordingly.
Inflatable photo booth hire — also commonly searched as inflatable booth hire, enclosed photo booth hire, inflatable cabin photo booth or photo booth tent hire. A fully enclosed inflatable cabin (about 2.5m × 2.5m on the floor, around 2.4m tall) with one of our standard Selfie Pods inside — HD camera, soft fill light, touchscreen, and a dye-sublimation printer producing 2×6 photo strips in seconds. The cabin gives guests four walls of privacy around the booth; the Selfie Pod inside delivers the same instant prints, digital sharing and full software experience library you'd get from our open-air booth.
We deliver, set up, inflate, test, and pack down. Hires run attended or unattended — your choice at booking; either way a team member is in the area for the duration of your hire. Indoor only — the inflatable shell and blower aren't rated for outdoor use. Booked across Surrey, London, Kent, Sussex, Hampshire, Berkshire and UK-wide.
Open-style booths put guests on display in front of the whole room. The inflatable cabin gives them four walls of privacy — which is exactly when the most expressive, candid shots happen (especially a few drinks in). The puffy tufted walls also do work as event décor; the cabin lands on the venue floor as a distinctive freestanding piece rather than fading into the background. Same Selfie Pod kit inside as our open-air pod, so prints, digital sharing and the full experience library all run identically — what you're paying for on top is the enclosure.
The inflatable cabin runs almost the entire Surrey FaceBooth experience library — exactly what you'd get on the open-air Selfie Pod. Same pod hardware inside the cabin, so the experience layered on top is configurable per event:
The one experience that needs different kit is the Green Screen Dream Machine — that runs on a dedicated booth.
All three run instant prints + digital sharing and cover the same software experience library (the Selfie Pod and the inflatable both use the same chassis; the Oval Enclosed runs a DSLR instead). The difference is the shell:
Pick the inflatable for the playful step-inside cabin with the same Selfie Pod prints you'd get in our open-air booth. Pick the Selfie Pod if footprint is the priority, or if you want a separate backdrop. Pick the oval enclosed if you want the premium hard-finish look or DSLR camera quality.
For a designer mid-century chassis instead, the Vintage Photo Booth is the upgrade — DSLR camera, hand-finished wooden cabinet, weddings and brand events where the booth itself is part of the décor.
We cover every type of event. The inflatable booth fits in particularly well at:
