Party Supply Rental in Australia Industry Data and Analysis
The Party Supply Rental industry has transitioned from a sharp downturn into a renewed growth phase, shaped by shifting demand patterns, tighter competition and new structural opportunities. The clearest avenue has been households and weddings. Australians continue to place strong importance on milestone birthdays, engagements and weddings, which has underpinned strong demand for marquees, premium furniture and tableware. Corporate and business event demand has rebounded, with convention centres and major venues boasting a solid pipeline of international conferences and exhibitions. However, many organisations are now running shorter, more focused events with tighter hire budgets, so spending per event on party supply rentals hasn't grown as quickly as volumes. Combined with subdued consumer and business confidence, this has made year-to-year revenue more volatile than in earlier years, but a recent uptick in real household discretionary income has helped lift profit margins. Overall, industry revenue is expected to have surged at an annualised 7.9% over the past five years to total $540.6 million in 2025-26, up from a weak base in 2020-21. Revenue is expected to spike by an estimated 6.3% in the current year due to marked improvements in consumer sentiment.
