MOJO Bar is a rock 'n' roll cocktail bar brand known for bringing bold music and late-night energy to cities across the UK. With nearly 30 years in the game, MOJO isn’t just about cocktails, it’s about creating experiences that guests remember. In a competitive nightlife space, standing out takes more than good drinks and music. For MOJO, it started with one photo booth in Liverpool, guests loved it, the photos got shared, and the brand saw the potential.
From a Good Time to a Take-Home Moment
The idea was simple: let guests take a piece of the night home with them. “We didn’t want to be just another bar,” said Peter Williams, Area Manager at MOJO. What started as an experiment at their Liverpool venue turned into a branded, physical memory that guests loved and shared. The booths quickly rolled out to an additional four venues.
From Harrogate to Newcastle, each booth is wrapped in MOJO’s signature artwork. Guests walk away with keepsakes that often end up on fridges, desks, and Instagram feeds, boosting brand reach with zero extra effort.
Designed to Fit, Built to Last
The booths aren’t just decorative, they’re part of the infrastructure. Now included early in venue planning, Snap-O-Matic’s photo booths are treated as essential guest touchpoints. “It’s high-end flat-pack magic,” Peter joked. “The Snap-O-Matic team handles everything.”
Whether it's special event branding like MOJO Manchester’s 20th birthday, or day-to-day footfall, the booths bring value with minimal input from staff. And when tech hiccups happen? The Snap-O-Matic team handles it, fast.
Impact That’s Easy to Measure
The booths see consistent use, with guests sharing their snaps organically and regularly, no prompts or campaigns required. Operationally, they run with minimal fuss, and financially, they contribute meaningfully. They generate revenue without adding pressure to staff or resources, a welcome advantage in today’s climate, where efficiency and experience both matter. The result? A tool that supports marketing, deepens brand connection, and simply works.
“We’ve even had guests ask for extra prints, for themselves and their friends. That kind of interaction is gold,” said Peter.
Advice for Venues
Snap-O-Matic has gone from a simple add-on to a permanent fixture within the MOJO experience. It's part of how new venues are designed, how events are brought to life, and how customers remember their nights out. The collaboration is low-touch for MOJO’s team, but high-impact for their guests, and that’s a rare combination.
For other venues exploring ways to enhance engagement without adding complexity, Peter’s recommendation is clear: “100% recommend it. If you want something that improves the guest experience, supports your brand, and doesn’t weigh down your team—this is it.”
