Creative Booth Ideas for Festivals

Creative Booth Ideas for festivals.

Standing out at festivals is no walk in the park. You have to be creative and ingenious. I mean, you're not the only brand vying for the attention of a large crowd of people, so you need to give it your all.

Even with how crowded festivals can get, some attending businesses find it hard attracting visitors. Why? Because their booths aren't captivating or engaging.

Showing up for festivals like Afronation, Chale wote, and Afrofuture, just to name a few, requires you to bring your A-game as a business. Take the brands mentioned in this article, for example. They went all out and were not only able to generate mass sales but also increase their product's awareness.

To make things easy for you, we've compiled a list of some creative booth ideas that attract visitors at festivals. With these, getting foot traffic to your booth might just be a walk in the park.

Booth ideas

Game Booths:

One good way to keep visitors entertained has to be with games. Setting up games like dancing and singing competitions, spin the wheel, laser tag, a shooting gallery and so on, with prizes included, will definitely keep any festival-goer interested in your booth.

Food and Beverage Booths:

This is one of the best ways to turn footfall into foot traffic to your booth. Food gets anyone hyped up, and festivals are one place to find a hungry crowd. Since festivals like Afronation don't allow attendees to bring food, this serves as an opportunity for you to score a crowd. Giving out free drinks or snacks entices visitors to check out your booth. And even food and beverage businesses benefit more from this since it's basically what they sell.

Photo Booths:

Everyone loves to keep memories, especially fun ones. Having a photo booth with fun props available is enough to keep visitors hooked on your booth. Like done here by Hendrick Gin at the 2017 Lollapalooza festival. And also by Redcity at the Eko Anime Fest in Lagos. Just a thought, but you can offer free photos for every or any product bought at your booth.

Merch Booths:

What's going to a festival without something to show for it? Booths like this are a must-stop for most festival attendees. Selling festival-themed merchandise to attendees helps promote interest in your booth and your products. Merch could range from branded t-shirts to hats, bags, basically anything.

Clothing Booths:

For clothing brands, this is a perfect way to introduce people to your products. It's common practice for attendees to change or add an extra layer of clothing at festivals. Companies like Adidas, Wranglers, and the like are known to allow visitors to create their own customized wear at festivals and buy it. This gets people interested and also helps spread awareness.

Body Art Booths:

Another thing that gets people engaged is body art. Whether it's face paintings, temporary tattoos, glow-in-the-dark body paintings, e.t.c., you'll definitely find festival-goers all in for it. Especially at festivals like the Chale Wote Art Festival in Ghana.

Remember, creating a booth requires adequate planning. Not only should you consider the idea, but the design is also key.
