Confetti machines and cannons provide an exciting way to mark important moments at weddings, concerts, club nights, festivals, parties and corporate events.
The Prebeat range includes handheld confetti cannons for simple operation, electric cannons for precisely timed effects, reusable launcher systems, professional confetti blowers and loose confetti in a choice of colours and materials.
Handheld confetti cannons are ideal when a quick, self-contained effect is required without electrical equipment. Most pre-filled models are activated using a simple twist mechanism, releasing confetti or streamers above the audience or event space.
Available in different lengths, colours and fillings, handheld cannons are popular for weddings, award ceremonies, parties, dance floors and audience participation.
Electric confetti cannons are pre-filled cartridges designed for use with compatible electric launchers. They allow the effect to be triggered remotely, making it easier to coordinate confetti with music, lighting cues, announcements or important moments during a show.
Single-shot and multiple-cannon launchers can be positioned around a stage or venue to create concentrated bursts or wider coverage. Always check the cartridge dimensions and launcher compatibility before ordering.
For larger stages and event spaces, a confetti blower machine can create a continuous or high-volume effect using loose confetti.
Unlike cartridge launchers, which produce a single burst, blower machines can be loaded with suitable loose confetti to create a more sustained display. They are particularly useful for concerts, festivals, theatres and professional event productions.
Traditional confetti creates a cloud of smaller pieces that spreads across the performance or audience area. Slow-fall tissue confetti remains airborne for longer, while metallic finishes reflect stage lighting for a bright visual effect.
Streamer cannons release long ribbons that create a distinctive overhead display. They are well suited to stage reveals, finales, weddings and celebrations where a bold single-shot effect is required.
Compact 50cm cannons are convenient for parties, weddings and smaller venues. Larger 80cm cannons generally contain more material and provide a more substantial effect, making them suitable for stages and larger event spaces.
The best option will depend on the venue size, required coverage, ceiling height and whether the effect is being activated manually or from an electric launcher.
Before using any confetti product, obtain permission from the venue and check its rules regarding materials, cleaning and special effects. Some venues may restrict metallic confetti or require particular types of biodegradable material.
Follow the manufacturer’s instructions, maintain suitable overhead clearance and keep the firing path away from people, equipment, lighting fixtures and decorations. Cannons should never be pointed directly at an audience member.

Q: What is the difference between handheld and electric confetti cannons?
A: Handheld cannons are activated manually using a twist mechanism. Electric cannons are cartridges designed to be fired from a compatible powered launcher, allowing more precise timing and remote activation.
Q: Are confetti cannons reusable?
A: Pre-filled handheld and electric cannon cartridges are normally single-use products. Compatible electric launcher machines can be reused with new cartridges.
Q: Should I choose a 50cm or 80cm cannon?
A: A 50cm cannon is a practical choice for smaller venues and celebrations. An 80cm cannon generally creates a larger effect and may be better suited to stages and larger event spaces.
Q: What is the difference between confetti and streamer cannons?
A: Confetti cannons release smaller pieces that spread through the air, while streamer cannons launch long ribbons that create a more defined overhead effect.
Q: Can any electric cannon be used with any launcher?
A: No. Cartridge dimensions and electrical compatibility can vary, so always check the launcher and cannon specifications before use.
Q: Can confetti machines and cannons be used indoors?
A: Many can be used indoors when the venue permits it and sufficient clearance is available. Consider ceiling height, decorations, fire-detection equipment, floor conditions and cleaning requirements before use.
Q: Is loose confetti suitable for every machine?
A: No. Use only the size, material and quantity recommended for the particular blower or confetti machine to help prevent blockages and inconsistent performance.
