What to put in the surprise balls: prize ideas for fairs and events
The magic of the surprise ball prize machine lies in what is inside. Each 9 cm ball holds a gift, and choosing its contents well is what turns a 20-second game into a brand memory. Here are some ideas that work.
- Small merchandise: pins, keyrings, badges or wristbands with your logo, which fit in the ball and can be worn straight away.
- Vouchers and discounts: cards with a code or a discount for your shop, perfect for a shopping centre campaign.
- Special prizes: a few balls with a bigger prize to be claimed at the stand, adding excitement to every go.
- Treats for guests: at weddings and company dinners, messages, wrapped sweets or small gifts.
The empty balls are available in different colours, so you can also use colour to tell prizes apart. Before the event we check the ball loading and the mechanism so the machine runs on its own all day. If you need it, we can also handle prize management for you. Just tell us what you want to give away and who your audience is.
What kind of events the prize machine is ideal for

Why hire a prize machine?
- Gifts with a surprise: every capsule is a small thrill.

- Tailored: a surprise prize machine for promotions with your brand and your gifts.
A prize machine to capture leads at conferences and trade fairs
At a conference, every stand visit counts. The prize machine for trade fairs is the perfect excuse for attendees to come over, and also to leave something in return. Planned well, it becomes a sales tool rather than just entertainment.
- A game in exchange for details: visitors play after scanning their badge or filling in a short form with your team.
- A prize for watching the demo: anyone who attends your product presentation wins a go at the end.
- A stand trail: a card stamped at several points that can be swapped for a surprise ball.
It needs no coins and each game lasts around 20 seconds, so there is a steady flow of people and your team has time to talk to those waiting. With branding on the sides and front, the machine shows off your image and can be seen from the aisle. Measuring 64 x 188 x 70 cm, it takes up little room on the stand. We set it up in 15 minutes and bring it to conferences and trade shows in Barcelona, Madrid, Valencia and any venue in Spain.
Prize ball machine hire in Barcelona for weddings and companies
Every ball, a gift
Prize ball machine hire in Barcelona is an original way to hand out gifts without queues or dull giveaways. At weddings and communions, each guest gets their keepsake at the press of a button, and the thrill of opening the ball turns the gift into a moment shared with the whole table.
At company dinners and conventions, the machine hands out gifts, vouchers or internal awards in a fun and orderly way. At shop openings and venue launches, it rewards the first customers and creates buzz at the entrance. It also works at professional congresses with samples or merchandise. We install it in Barcelona, Madrid and the rest of Spain, with delivery included.
- Weddings and communions: a gift machine with a surprise favour for every guest.
- Company dinners: balls with vouchers, gifts or prizes to share out among staff.

Customising the prize ball machine
The prize ball machine customised with your brand (188 cm) is worked on three fronts:
- Branding: sides and front with your image, in printed vinyl.
- Empty balls: 9 cm in green, orange, yellow, blue, red or clear, for your prizes.
- Prizes: the practical option is ordering them from a merchandising company; if we source the plush toys, we need at least 1 month and 100% payment in advance.
You send your artwork or we design it in a couple of days; trusted suppliers print and our team applies it.
It travels in plastic film and arrives as good as new. Ideal for promotional gifts at trade fairs and conferences.
Prize machine hire price
The price of renting the gift vending machine is determined by the location, the duration and optional services like branding or prize sourcing. If you celebrate outside Barcelona, we include travel in the quote. Ask for it with no obligation.
Prize machine set-up and installation
Imagen
Capsule machine set-up in 15 minutes, plus moving it in from the truck, anywhere in the country. We agree the space and access with you, check the system and capsule loading before the event and, afterwards, take it away and leave the space in perfect condition.
Booking the prize machine
Reserving the prize capsule machine takes two things from you: advancing 50% of the total (we send you an invoice) and giving us the event information, that is, day and time, exact location, contact person and tax details. If a justified cause to cancel arises, we look into a refund under the agreed conditions.
