Adding atmosphere to any event, from creating a spooky Halloween feel to a mystical feel for a fantasy-themed event or even a glamorous effect for a wedding. Smoke machines are a great way to elevate the ambiance of any event and there are models available that can be used for venues from a small room up to a stadium.

Hire Smoke Machines use glycerine or glycol-based liquids to create dense clouds of smoke that can disperse quickly. These can cause issues with sight lines and can sometimes cause smoke particles to fall onto lighting fixtures causing them to de-focus or flash too brightly, these types of machines also tend to set off fire alarms in venues. For a more subtle effect a hazer machine is recommended, these use oil-based fluid that hangs in the air (hence the name!), they don’t ‘hug the ground ‘ as conventional smoke machines do and they can be operated remotely.

The nozzle on all smoke machines gets hot and it is advisable not to get too close. They often require several minutes to heat up and some may have a warning note on them as the nozzle can burn skin. Most come with a remote control to adjust the output and duration of the fog. Some of the models are portable or can be run on a battery, ideal for film or show applications in remote locations. They can be supplied with extra fluid as required.
