We ordered new outside banners and had a fantastic experience. Lukas worked very hard to make sure the banners were exactly what we wanted. The banners look terrific and we are so pleased with the amazing service Display Sales offered.
Display Sales does a great job. They come out and do a plan, go back and say this is what you do. They really went above and beyond making sure that you were gonna be satisfied and the it was gonna work and it wasn't going to be a pain for you to take care of.
the quality of the banners is really high. Obviously in Minnesota we face a lot of weather. In the summer they're getting beaten down with the sun. And yet year over year they continue to look beautiful. And that's something you want in a product and an investment like that.

FAQs: Christmas Photo Ops
What's the difference between a set piece and a look-through photo op?
Set pieces, like our fiberglass Santa chairs and snowmen, are full figures guests pose beside or with. Look-through photo ops have child-sized cutout openings so kids can pop their faces through the scene. Many venues offer both to appeal to different ages, and we can help you pick the right mix for your audience.
Are these photo ops built for heavy public use?
Yes. Our photo ops are made from commercial-grade molded fiberglass or steel frames designed for high-traffic, hands-on settings like malls, parks, and events. They hold up to constant interaction and repeated seasons. Tell us where yours will live and we'll confirm the right build.
Can these be used indoors and outdoors?
Most can. Many of our photo ops come in classic and lit versions suited to indoor displays and outdoor settings alike. Share your location and conditions and we'll recommend the right pieces and any anchoring or placement you'll need.
Do you offer photo ops for theme parks, zoos, and large attractions?
Absolutely. Our interactive displays, from train engines to look-through scenes, are popular with theme parks, zoos, malls, and downtown events that want to boost engagement and shareable moments. Contact us and we'll help you plan a photo program scaled to your venue.
What's the investment for a commercial photo op?
Pricing spans a wide range depending on size and complexity, from smaller fiberglass pieces to large interactive train and sleigh displays. We'll help you match options to your budget and goals. Contact us for a custom quote built around the photo ops you have in mind.
When should we order to be ready for the holiday season?
Order as early as you can. These are specialty, often high-value pieces, and demand peaks heading into fall. Ordering ahead protects your timeline and allows for any custom requests. If you're planning this season, reach out now so your photo ops arrive with time to set up.
