Photo Booth Rental in the US industry analysis

The industry, which rents out photo booths for events, weddings and other parties, performed well over the five years to 2024. This enhanced level of performance is due to the sharp economic recovery as COVID restrictions dissipated, enabling social events to resume uninhibited. Nonetheless, intense competition from smartphone cameras has mitigated the industry’s overall rise. The industry has responded to shifting consumer preferences by increasing the number of nonemployer professionals who can offer rental services at a lower rate than large, established companies. Still, the COVID-19 pandemic precipitated a massive decline in revenue in 2020 as photo booth rental companies and their clients were prohibited from gathering together, but this has been completely rectified and trends have reversed. Photo booth rental revenue has been expanding at a CAGR of 3.9% over the past five years and is expected to total $101.4 million in 2024, when revenue will fall an estimated 0.2%. Profit will also strengthen amid lower labor fees.

Trends and Insights

  • Robust growth in the national marriage rate propels revenue growth. With more consumers entering marriage, it created robust demand for photo booth rentals.
  • Magic mirror photo booths remain the industry’s largest product. 360 photo booths also account for a significant portion of demand.
  • Formal rules and obstacles to entering the industry don't exist, and start-up fees are often not too high. Still, companies must have the necessary funds to acquire the initial batch of photo booths to begin operating.
