Balloons Corner - The Ultimate Selfie Experience in Windhoek
Windhoek's creative scene got a major upgrade with the launch of Balloons Corner and Selfie Museum, a one-of-a-kind photography and event space designed to bring colour and creativity to every snapshot. Founded by event planner Lillian Rometa, this vibrant venue at MegaCentre offers themed photo booths, interactive experiences, and an affordable alternative for high-quality pictures.
Windhoek’s creative scene has a new hotspot, and content creators, event planners and photography enthusiasts are in for a treat.
Balloons Corner and Selfie Museum, founded by Lylian Rumeta is an innovative space designed to bring colour, creativity and convenience to photography and events.
Located at MegaCentre near Grove Mall, this unique venue offers a variety of themed booths, making it an ideal spot for those looking to capture stunning moments. Rumeta’s inspiration for this project stemmed from a personal experience. “During my court wedding, we struggled to find affordable and beautiful locations for photography. That’s when I realised there was a gap in the market for a cost-effective, all-in-one photo studio,” she said.
Rumeta shared that the concept of Balloons Corner was born out of her experience as an event planner. “Balloons Corner originally started as an event decor business, focusing mainly on backdrops,” she explained. I realised that setting up individual backdrops for clients was costly. So, I decided to create a permanent space where people could come and take professional-quality photos in ready-made, aesthetically pleasing booths,” Rumeta explained.
Beyond selfies, Balloons Corner also offers an array of entertainment options. Guests can enjoy board games as part of their entry fee, creating a relaxed atmosphere where friends and families can spend quality time together. Additionally, the venue hosts events such as birthday parties, bridal showers, and corporate team-building sessions. Sip-and-paint sessions are also available for those looking to explore their artistic side while unwinding in a vibrant environment.
For corporate clients, Balloons Corner provides team-building packages that incorporate interactive activities such as themed photo challenges and board games. “Our packages are flexible and priced per person,” Rumeta said. “We tailor our services to meet the needs of each company, ensuring an engaging and fun experience.”
The Selfie Museum Experience
The selfie museum aspect of the business sets it apart. “A selfie museum is essentially a self-help photography space,” Rumeta noted. “We provide guests with selfie sticks, and they can capture their pictures in beautifully designed booths that change seasonally.” The venue currently features a variety of themed booths, including a Valentine’s setup, a vintage corner, and a vibrant Wonderland booth, among others.
Bridging the photography gap
As the first business of its kind in Namibia, Balloons Corner is set to become a must-visit destination for social media enthusiasts and photography lovers alike. For bookings and inquiries, interested clients can reach out via their social media platforms on Facebook and Instagram or visit the venue in person. For those looking to add creativity to their photography or events, Balloons Corner is the place to be. With its ever-changing themes and inviting atmosphere, it promises a memorable experience for everyone who walks through its doors.
