Event snack packaging
Branded popcorn boxes that make the snack part of the show
A popcorn box travels through a whole crowd, which makes it one of the most visible pieces of branding at an event. We quote custom printed popcorn boxes in several sizes, designed to carry your logo, campaign or event artwork from the counter to the seat.
- Three popular sizes
- Full colour branding
- Events, cinemas, promotions
- Written quote per job

Where branded popcorn boxes work best
Popcorn boxes are a natural fit for cinema nights, school fêtes, product launches, staff functions, weddings, kiddies' parties and retail promotions. Businesses use them for a themed snack station, a branded giveaway at an expo stand, or as part of a customer appreciation event where the box itself is the keepsake.
Because people carry the box around and photograph it, a strong design on all four sides gets far more exposure than a logo on a napkin. Tell us the occasion and we can suggest a layout that works from every angle.
Sizes and what suits each
Popcorn boxes are commonly made in three sizes, and we can confirm current sizes and alternatives on your quote.
| Size | Typical dimensions | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Small | About 8 x 8 x 15 cm | Individual portions, kids, giveaways |
| Medium | About 9 x 9 x 21 cm | Standard serving at events and venues |
| Large | About 10.5 x 10.5 x 24 cm | Sharing portions and group snacking |
A taller box gives more branding area but needs more space on the serving table, so think about how the boxes will be displayed.
Designing the box
The box is printed in full colour, so photographic and gradient designs are possible, not just a single-colour logo. Many clients use the front for the logo, the sides for a pattern or message, and the back for a social handle, event date or small print.
- Match your brand colours, and ask about a coloured background
- Use bold shapes and large text, since the box is seen at distance
- Keep key content away from the folds and glued edges
We supply the dieline for the chosen size so your designer, or ours, can place the artwork accurately. For other packaging formats, see custom boxes and packaging.
Ordering, approvals and collection
Send your logo and event details through the quote form. We confirm size, quantity, print coverage and timing on a written quote, and you approve a proof before anything is printed. Turnaround depends on quantity, approved artwork, payment and a confirmed deadline, and urgent jobs are subject to capacity.
Boxes can be collected from our Rivonia shop once we confirm they are ready, or delivery can be arranged and quoted per job. Please check box count and print on collection. If you plan to use the boxes for a particular food product or setting, mention it so we can discuss suitability with you before ordering.

Frequently asked questions
Can I order different sizes in one job?
Yes, list each size and quantity in your request and we will quote them together. Different sizes may use separate artwork versions, so say if the design changes.
Can I use a full-colour photo on the box?
Yes. Full colour printing handles photographs and gradients, provided your image is high resolution. Send the original file rather than a screenshot.
What do I need to send?
Your logo as a vector file if possible, the wording you want, your event date and the quantities. If you have no artwork, ask about design support.
Can the box be used for food?
Suitability for specific food types is assessed per job. Tell us what you plan to serve and how, and we will discuss it before you place an order.
Can I collect from your shop?
Yes, once we confirm the job is ready. Call or WhatsApp to confirm before visiting our Rivonia shop.
