Beyond Lights. Beyond Borders: Surreal Global, crafting magical experiences

 A single lightbulb moment changed the course of
India’s outdoor décor industry and set the professional journey of Rahul Soni
and Ameya Kankonkar in motion. What began as a boutique design studio has now
evolved into Surreal Global—a
powerhouse of creativity, design, and scale.

 

For over 15 years, Surreal Global has pioneered the
art of transforming everyday spaces into extraordinary experiences. From grand
festivals to seasonal celebrations, they have consistently delivered
awe-inspiring spectacles that fuse culture, art, and technology. Their
portfolio spans far beyond décor. Alongside large-scale installations, Surreal
Global has executed immersive brand activations, exported bespoke products
worldwide, and built intellectual properties such as the India Light Festival
and World of Christmas—India’s first large-scale European-style
Christmas market, attracting over 40,000 visitors annually. With in-house
design, production, and execution capabilities, the company has become a
full-spectrum creative force.

 

Its international footprint continues to expand,
beginning with its new office in the Middle East. The rebrand to Surreal Global
reflects this evolution. “This milestone in Dubai and our rebrand is
not just a step forward—it’s a statement of our global reach. It reffects our
belief that décor, design, and storytelling know no borders, only possibilities,” 
says
founder Rahul Soni.

 

Surreal’s multidisciplinary team has mastered the
craft of bringing emotionally intelligent, larger-than-life experiences to
life. Their bold vision and meticulous execution have earned them the trust of
leading shopping centre groups, luxury brands, international airports, and
large-scale business conglomerates—establishing Surreal as a partner of choice
for ambitious, high-profile projects.

 

Internationally, Surreal Global has established itself
as a trusted partner for manufacturing and exporting custom festive collections
and experiential products, managing every detail with end-to-end precision—from
design development to seamless delivery. “Our success with exports has
laid the foundation for a truly global presence. Now, we’re taking the next
leap—establishing offices in key regions, starting with the Middle East and
steadily expanding worldwide,” 
says co-founder Ameya Kankonkar.

 

With a commitment to cross-cultural storytelling and
the integration of emerging technologies, Surreal Global continues to push the
boundaries of experiential design. Passion, precision, and vision drive every
creation—making the company a trailblazer in the industry.
