Confetti, streamers & reveals
Confetti cannon
Paper or metallic confetti shot over the crowd by a CO2 cannon, in the colours you choose. Paper (tissue) confetti is easier to clean up.
Confetti blizzard machine
A big machine that blasts confetti 30–40 feet up and over a large crowd — far more than a hand cannon.
Confetti rain machine (swirl fan)
A silent fan hung on the truss that lets confetti fall slowly like rain, all around the room.
Streamer cannon
Long paper or metallic ribbons fired into the air. A big moment with less clean-up than confetti.
Kabuki drop (curtain reveal)
A curtain, tarpaulin or balloon net that drops in a second on cue — plug-and-play, and it can run from the lighting desk (DMX).
CO2, fog, smoke & snow
CO2 jet (cryo jet)
A loud white column of cold CO2 shot upward on the beat. It clears in a few seconds and leaves nothing behind.
Hand-held CO2 gun
A portable cryo gun the operator (or your DJ) fires into the air or over the crowd — the CO2 jet you can move around.
Low fog ("walking on clouds")
A thick white cloud that stays low on the floor, so people seem to walk on clouds. Odourless and non-toxic; one machine covers about 30–40 sqm.
Fog & haze machine
Fog or a light haze in the air that makes stage lights and laser beams show. Fog is thicker, haze is finer.
LED colour smoke column
A column of smoke lit from below by colour LEDs, so it glows in your brand colours. Runs from the lighting desk (DMX).
Snow machine (foam snow)
Soft foam "snow" falling from above, gone in minutes. It needs a hanging point.
Bubbles, balloons & crowd fun
Balloon drop
A net of inflated balloons (around 100 per drop) released over the crowd on cue.
T-shirt launcher cannon
A CO2 cannon that fires rolled-up shirts or giveaways into the crowd.
Holi colour powder blaster
Cannons that blast clouds of coloured powder over the crowd — the colour-run look.
Foam machine (foam party)
A blower that covers the dance floor or the crowd in soft foam — the foam party.
Bubble machine
Clouds of soap bubbles from a small machine — gentle and safe for children.
Sparks, flames & stage pyro
Cold spark machine
A fountain of sparks from the floor (often called a sparkular), with no flame and almost no smoke. The sparks are far cooler than fireworks.
Indoor sparkle fountains (gerbs)
Short fountains of silver or gold sparks made for indoor stages, in different heights and lengths.
Spark waterfall
A row of silver sparks falling like a curtain of water from the top of the stage.
Stage mines
A burst shot straight up from the stage floor — glitter, sparks or a flash — on the beat.
Sparkler cake candles
Small sparkler candles for the cake or the bottle parade.
Flame machine & flame projector
Real columns of fire shot up from the stage, timed to the music — single or triple heads. Run only by a trained operator.
Fireworks & outdoor smoke
Fireworks display
A fireworks show in the sky, from a few minutes to a full show set to music, set off by the supplier's pyro technicians.
Pyromusical show
A fireworks display timed shot by shot to your music — the show people film and share.
Airburst fireworks
Single fireworks shots that burst in the sky on cue — one big moment instead of a full show.
Fireworks message sign
A frame that lights up in fire to spell a name, a logo or "Happy New Year".
Daytime coloured smoke
Thick coloured smoke for daytime — on the ground or shot into the sky — that shows in photos and video.
How it works
Questions
How much does a special effect rental cost?
It depends on how many units, how long, and the venue. Send one request with your date and venue, and the suppliers reply with their prices — free, no account needed.
Can I use it indoors?
Confetti, streamers, CO2, low fog, snow, bubbles and balloon drops are usually fine indoors. Fog, haze and smoke can set off smoke alarms. Cold sparks, fountains, flames and stage pyro need the venue's OK, and often a fire (BFP) permit. Fireworks are outdoor only. Always tell your venue first.
Does the supplier run it on the day?
Yes — the supplier sets it up, runs it at your cue and packs it away. Tell them your timeline and the moments you want it.
