LED sphere rental: sizes, pitch, and mounting.
What a sphere is, how to size and mount one, and what to screen a rental on. A short guide before you commit, plus a look at our own two-size sphere.
A display that plays from every angle.
A sphere is a curved LED display that plays content the whole way around, readable from any seat in the room. It works as a booth centerpiece, a brand activation, or a stage feature, and it draws a crowd the way a flat wall does not.
Five things to screen on.
- 01
Size
A 5 ft sphere reads as a strong centerpiece in a booth; a 6.5 ft sphere commands a larger floor or atrium. Match it to the space and the sightlines.
- 02
Pixel pitch
The 5 ft runs 1.8 mm and the 6.5 ft runs 2.0 mm. Finer pitch holds up closer; both are built to read from across a room.
- 03
Mounting
Hoist-rigged for a floating centerpiece, or floor-mounted on a stand or custom box. The internal frame supports both.
- 04
Content support
A sphere wraps your file around itself, so its left and right edges meet. Match the background at both edges and it wraps cleanly; text or logos that cross the seam need to wrap too. Pre-staging on the real sphere before show day is available on request.
- 05
Crew
Rigging a sphere overhead is real rigging. Confirm who installs it and who runs it on show day.
If you want the gear, not just the guide.

What is an LED sphere?
A spherical LED display that plays content the whole way around, readable from any angle in the room. It works as a booth centerpiece, a brand activation, or a stage feature.
What sizes and pixel pitch are available?
Common rental sizes are around 5 ft (1.8 mm pitch) and 6.5 ft (2.0 mm pitch). Finer pitch reads better up close; both are built for room-scale viewing.
How is a sphere mounted?
Either hoist-rigged from a motorized chain hoist for a floating look, or floor-mounted on a stand or custom box. The internal frame supports both.
Who rents LED spheres?
Fewer companies than rent flat walls, because spheres need spherical content mapping and real rigging. Screen on content support and crew, not just the gear. We rent two sizes and crew the build.
Do I need special content?
Yes. Build it to the pixel size we give you, with the background matching at the left and right edges so it wraps cleanly, and keep text and logos away from the seam or make them wrap. If you cannot, we can scale it. We guide the setup, and pre-staging on the real sphere before show day is available on request.
