Birthday marquee letters turn any party into the photo spot. We rent 40 inch light up letters and numbers all over San Diego, and we handle delivery, setup and pickup. Here’s how to pick what to spell, what it costs and a few ideas that always land.
Light up numbers for milestone birthdays
Big numbers are the easiest win. A glowing 1, 16, 21, 30, 40, 50, 60 or 70 tells everyone what the party is about before they even walk in. Right now we carry numbers 0 through 7, with 8 and 9 coming soon.
We lit up a surprise 60th with our numbers and a balloon wall, and here’s what the host had to say:
The numbers were exactly as advertised, tall, sturdy and clean!

Birthday marquee letters for names and words
Not a milestone year? Spell the birthday person’s name, their initials or a short word like PARTY. For a quinceañera, XV looks amazing. Send us your word and we’ll confirm we have the letters before you book.
Party ideas that always work
- Backyard party: put the numbers in front of a balloon garland for an instant backdrop.
- Surprise party: we set up before guests arrive, so the reveal is ready when you are.
- Restaurant or venue: the letters give a private room a real focal point.
- Kids’ parties: a big glowing number is the photo everyone wants.
How much do birthday marquee letters cost?
Letters and numbers are $70 each, per day. So a 21 or a 30 is $140, and a four letter name is $280.
Delivery is based on distance from Point Loma. It starts at $70 for Point Loma and the beach towns and goes up to $200 for spots farther out. The full breakdown is on our pricing page.
