Local planning

Plan the Portsmouth route

The useful questions are where the vehicle stops, whether the path has stairs, and whether the outlet is in the room. Your venue has those answers.

These are planning examples, not claims of past Fosko events or venue partnerships. Venue permission and setup requirements must be confirmed.

Olde Towne and High Street
Brick streets and short loading spaces are normal. Ask where a vehicle may stop, how long it may stay and whether the route includes stairs.
Waterfront rooms on the Elizabeth River
Wind off the river reaches open patios. Choose an indoor or fully sheltered room with a dry floor and a nearby outlet.
Churchland, Cradock and Port Norfolk halls
Check the room once chairs are set, and confirm the building will be unlocked when setup starts.
Norfolk Naval Shipyard and other installation venues
Shipyard access is not automatic. Your organizer confirms entry and documents before booking. Fosko is independent and has no military affiliation or endorsement.

A neighborhood hall

Check the door, the outlet and the stairs

A historic route needs a clear path for the equipment. Pictured with our gold sparkle backdrop, included with Hosted Digital and available on eligible Drop-Off bookings.

Before you book

A few useful answers

Is Southside Hampton Roads delivery included?
Yes. Delivery, setup and pickup are included across Southside Hampton Roads. Fosko Rentals is based in Newport News. Trips beyond Hampton Roads are quoted.
Will a historic Portsmouth building work?
It can, when there is a level room, a standard outlet and a route without stairs. Ask the venue to walk that route before you book. Access to a building still has to be confirmed.
Can you set up at the shipyard?
Contact us before booking. The organizer has to confirm entry, identification and vendor rules. We cannot guarantee installation access. Fosko is independent and has no military affiliation or endorsement.
What help comes with Drop-Off?
Drop-Off includes remote phone help during your booked rental hours. We provide the event-day number before your event. An on-site attendant is not included.
What can guests make at the booth?
Photos, animated GIFs, boomerangs and Video Messages are included, along with Glam and black-and-white filters, a custom photo design and a welcome screen. Guests can share by text or email. Sharing needs a connection; messages wait to send if the connection drops. Current packages are digital and do not include printed photos.
What space and power do we need?
One standard 120V outlet within 50 feet of the booth, and a level area about 10 by 10 feet with 8 foot clearance. We bring the extension cords.
How long can we access the event gallery?
For new bookings, your event gallery is available for three calendar months from your event date. Download and save your photos before the access period ends.
