Photo booths in Melbourne CBD

Photo booth hire in Melbourne CBD means working around loading docks, lifts, security desks and tight bump-in windows. Hotel ballrooms on Collins and Spring Street, rooftop venues along the Yarra and the big conference floors at South Wharf all run to the minute, so a booth that arrives late or takes an hour to set up is a real problem.

Ghost Booth Events has run booths at Crown, MCEC, The Langham, Park Hyatt, Eureka 89 and Alto Event Space, among many other city venues. Our open-air booth fits through standard doorways, packs into a single lift load and is live within 45 minutes of arriving at the dock. Prints are 6×4 or strip format on a dye-sub printer, so the queue keeps moving even at a 400-guest gala.

Access note: Most CBD venues require a certificate of currency, tagged-and-tested equipment and a dock booking. We carry all three as standard and liaise with the venue's event coordinator directly, so you don't need to relay logistics.

Melbourne CBD photo booth FAQs

Do you charge extra for CBD parking or dock access?

Travel, parking and any dock or venue access fees for CBD venues are itemised on your quote up front, so there is no surprise line item after the event. Send the venue name and we confirm the exact figures with your proposal.

Can the photo booth fit in a hotel lift?

Yes. Our open-air booth breaks down into a single trolley load that fits a standard passenger lift. Bump-in takes about 45 minutes from dock to first photo, and we coordinate the dock time slot with your venue.

Which CBD venues has Ghost Booth Events worked at?

Crown Melbourne, MCEC, The Langham, Park Hyatt, Eureka 89, Alto Event Space, Melbourne Town Hall and RACV City Club, plus office activations for corporate clients including Canva and Jetstar.
