Hot Glass Experience

Try glassblowing yourself or with your friends and family

Glassblowing is fantastic to watch, and amazing fun to have a go at! You can make your own unique glass piece, a special memento of your trip to Fiji to take home with you.

The experience lasts about 30 mins per person. We start off with a studio briefing then a glass blowing demonstration before you make a piece of glass of your own. Our skilled Fijian glass blowers will guide you through the process and give as much or little help you may need to create your glass.

You can choose to make either a Vase, Tumbler, Bowl or Dish in the colours of your choice. For the younger glass makers we also offer the option of a paperweight.

The experiences are held Monday through to Friday, cost – $245 per person.

Please send us an email  Contact us to book your experience, we look forward to hearing from you!

Note: All glass has to be annealed over night. This is an integral part of the glass making process. Your glass will be ready for collection the following day. If you are unable to collect, we can courier your glass to your hotel which will take 2 working days or we can DHL to your home. There is an extra charge for Fiji courier service and International DHL.

TIps and info beforE you visit

In the studio we ask all guests to wear shoes for obvious reasons! Its best to wear cotton clothing rather than anything manmade, flappy & flammable  –  we provide gloves and an apron. It is often hot so we have fans to move the air around and at any point if you feel hot we can take a break.

You are welcome to bring friends and family along if they are not doing an experience – it is free to visit the studio and is fascinating to watch. The hot shop is a working studio with lots of exciting projects which the team will tell you all about. We also have a gallery on site which has many of our hand blown glass pieces displayed and for sale.

The Studio is open from Monday through to Friday 10am to 3pm.
