In Canada, activating outdoors is more of a challenge than in warmer climates. Cold winter temperatures generally aren’t good for camera equipment, and the last thing you want is for your setup to crash in the middle of your event.

Last year, there was no shortage of clients wanting interactive photo experiences in the snow. Rather than turn down business, we went back to the drawing board.

Dome, bubble, and pod rentals for glamping experiences have gone viral over the past few years. It’s clear that people still want to enjoy the great outdoors— albeit from the comfort of a cozy enclosure (guilty!).

So, we came up with a solution for clients wanting an immersive outdoor photo experience in the winter months.

MDRN Activations offers glass or inflatable dome enclosures and custom heated trailers for your outdoor photo booth activations. These add-ons are the perfect all-season solution and work with our standard photo booth and 360 booths. Plus, they’re completely customizable and can be tailored to your unique branding.

Our winter booths offer so many other great benefits, which we’ve helpfully outlined for you.

Weather Protection

MDRN Activations’ winter booths can be heated, keeping guests warm even on the coldest days. Our booths also provide shelter from other weather conditions like rain, wind, and strong sunlight (thanks to an attachable shade umbrella). Your photo booth setup remains fully functional and safe, regardless of the weather, and protects the equipment from potential damage. No more worries about technical difficulties during your event!

Versatility and Comfort

Our winter booths are ideal for various outdoor events, from weddings and festivals to corporate gatherings and trade shows. They also offer a private to semi-private and comfortable space for event guests to take quality photos—without freezing their butts off. This can encourage more candid and creative shots as guests enjoy the coziness and branded set of your winter booth.

Completely Brandable and Customizable

Domes add a visually appealing and futuristic element to your photo booth activation, while trailers can be uniquely customized on the interior and exterior. Winter booths can be customized with your company's branding, logo, or event-specific graphics. This branding opportunity helps promote your business or event and create the perfect interactive branded experience to entertain guests. Booths can be equipped with customizable lighting and special effects to enhance the photo-taking experience.

Entertainment Value

Outdoor enclosures are totally interactive. The captivating photos and videos taken in our winter booth add-on offer a unique element of entertainment and novelty to events. They provide an activity that attendees can enjoy and remember, adding to the overall event experience.

Some booths incorporate interactive elements like touchscreens for users to control the photo session or add digital overlays and effects to their pictures. Whatever ideas you have for your winter booth, MDRN Activations has you covered. Guests are more likely to share their unique experiences through social media and word-of-mouth referrals, providing additional exposure for your brand or event.
