What Is a 360 Photo Booth?

The format that turned event photography into event video. How it works, what guests get and what it means for your business.

The Mechanics

Guests step onto a platform. A motorised arm carrying a camera or smartphone orbits them, recording continuously. The software then applies the signature treatment, speed ramps into slow motion, music, branded overlays, and delivers the finished clip to the guest's phone by QR code or link before they have left the platform.

Three physical formats exist: the classic spinning platform (80 or 100 cm), the infinity mirror base with a tempered glass floor rated to 250 kg, and the aerial system, where an overhead arm films from above with nothing on the floor. All three are covered in our360 photo booth range.

Why Events Book It

The output is native social content. A photo strip lives on a fridge; a 360 clip is posted within minutes, tagged, and seen by people who were not at the event, which is exactly what wedding couples and brands are paying for. That reach is why 360 experiences command the highest rates of any booth format.

The Software Half

The hardware spins; everything guests actually see comes from the app: capture, effects, music, sharing. Choosing it well matters as much as the platform, our360 app guide covers the criteria and the app we configure on our own platforms.

What It Costs

Professional platforms start at €2,690 VAT included, with aerial systems from €3,290. Full price context, including running costs, lives inhow much a photo booth costs, and if you are evaluating it as a venture, readhow to start a photo booth business.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a 360 photo booth in simple terms?

A platform guests stand on while a camera arm spins around them, recording video that the software turns into a slow motion clip with music and effects, delivered to their phone within seconds.

Does a 360 photo booth take photos or videos?

Video is the product: short clips with speed ramps and effects designed for social media. Some setups also export frames as photos, but bookings come for the video.

How much space does a 360 photo booth need?

Plan around 3 x 3 metres for a platform setup, including the safe radius of the rotating arm, or less for an overhead aerial system, which frees the floor entirely.
