Why choose our smoke & haze?

A little haze in the air makes every lighting beam visible, which turns a dancefloor into a proper party. Smoke machines add bursts of atmosphere, and low foggers create a cloud effect across the floor.

Not sure which you need? Haze for lighting, smoke for drama, low fog for a floor effect. Tell us about your event and we’ll suggest the right one.

Smoke & haze FAQs

What’s the difference between haze, smoke and low fog?

Haze is a fine mist that makes light beams visible. Smoke is thicker and comes in bursts. Low fog stays close to the floor, a bit like dry ice.

Will it set off the fire alarm?

It can at some venues, so always check with your venue before booking. Some venues can isolate the detectors in your room for the evening.

Do I need lighting too?

Haze looks best with moving or coloured lights. Our DJs and lighting packages bring the beams to show it off.

Which areas do you cover?

We’re based in Luton and cover Hertfordshire, Bedfordshire, Buckinghamshire and North London. Delivery is charged by distance and shown in your instant quote.
