How power distro boxes keep Christmas markets running

Christmas markets are a highlight of the festive season, bringing together stalls, food, entertainment, and festive lights. But behind every smoothly running market is one essential element that often goes unnoticed: power. Without a solid setup, lights flicker, heaters fail, and music cuts out – turning a festive experience into a stressful one. That’s where we come in at Rubber Box. With decades of experience supplying power to winter events, we provide a full range of solutions, from 16A power distribution boxes for smaller stalls to heavy-duty 400A supplies for larger setups.

Meeting the needs of every stall

Every Christmas market is different, and each stall has its own requirements. Small craft stalls may only need a single socket for lights or a card machine, while food and drink stands often require multiple connections for heaters, blenders, or hot water urns. Rubber Box’s distribution boxes cover all of these needs. Our 63A 3Phase boxes, like the RUB270H3, handle high-demand areas, while single-phase 16A, are perfect for individual stalls. This flexibility ensures every stall can operate safely and efficiently, with no risk of overloading circuits or losing power mid-event.

Simplifying setup and logistics

Setting up a Christmas market can be challenging. Stalls need to be positioned, cables routed safely, and equipment installed – often under tight deadlines. Our power distribution boxes are designed to make this process easier. They’re robust but lightweight, easy to install, and simple to move if plans change. This means your team can set up faster, reduce the risk of mistakes, and focus on getting the market ready for visitors rather than troubleshooting power issues.

Durable and reliable for winter conditions

Outdoor winter events can put extra strain on electrical equipment. Rain, snow, and freezing temperatures all add challenges. Our power distro units are built to withstand these conditions, providing safe, consistent power throughout the event. They’re designed to keep staff, vendors, and visitors safe, giving organisers confidence that everything will run as planned.

Planning and support

Choosing the right distribution boxes and planning your market layout can feel complicated, but our team is always on hand to help if you’re unsure. We can provide bespoke boxes if you need something specific or offer a wide range of options in different power supplies to suit any setup. Whether it’s a small town festival or a city-wide event, we can help you select the right equipment for each stall and route power safely across the site.

With over 30 years’ experience supplying winter events, we’ve supported more than 2,500 festivals, keep 10,000 boxes in stock, and have built over 80,000 bespoke distribution boxes. We know what works and can help you avoid common pitfalls, so your event runs smoothly from start to finish.
