Where to find a closed photo booth in Egypt: walk in or hire one
Want to step into a closed booth this weekend, or bring one to your own event? Here is where to walk into Tru’s booths, when Majarrah Mall is open, and how hiring works.
In short
In Egypt, you can walk into Tru Booth’s closed (enclosed) photo booth, The Black, at Majarrah Mall in Sheikh Zayed: no booking, pay per print at the booth, open Sunday to Thursday from 5 PM to 11 PM and Friday and Saturday from 5 PM to midnight. To have a closed booth at your own event, hire one: Tru brings The Black or The Red, or the open booth for big groups, across Greater Cairo and Giza, the North Coast and El Gouna. In summer there is also a Tru booth at Seashell Hill Walk on the North Coast; for its dates, or the booth’s spot inside Majarrah Mall, message Tru on WhatsApp.
Where can I find a closed photo booth in Egypt?
Walk into one: The Black, Tru’s closed booth, is permanent inside Majarrah Mall in Sheikh Zayed. There is no booking; you shoot a strip and pay for each print at the booth. It is open from 5 PM every day, until 11 PM Sunday to Thursday and until midnight on Friday and Saturday.
Or hire one for your event. Tru’s Closed booth comes in two finishes, The Black and The Red, and we bring it, with the printer and an attendant, to weddings, parties and brand events across Greater Cairo and Giza, the North Coast and El Gouna, with other cities on request.
In summer, there is also a Tru booth at Seashell Hill Walk on the North Coast (Sahel), where you can walk in the same way.

Closed or open booth: what is the difference?
A closed (enclosed) photo booth is a small private space with walls. Guests step inside, nobody is watching, and people relax in a way they rarely do in front of a full room. Tru’s comes in The Black, matte and made for black-tie nights, and The Red, loud on purpose. It needs about 2 × 2 metres and stands about 2 metres tall.
An open photo booth has no walls: a pro camera, a studio light, a touchscreen and a printer stand in the open, so a big group fits in one frame. Both print the same custom strip within seconds. For a point-by-point comparison, read the open vs enclosed guide linked at the end of this page.
