Frequently asked questions about Ground Kontrol

Is the photo booth at Ground Kontrol still working?

Probably, but reports disagree, so treat it as a maybe. We last checked on May 31, 2026. If you go, let us know what you found.

How much is a strip at Ground Kontrol, and can I pay by card?

The price is posted on the machine. Cash only — bring coins or small notes. Most analog booths in this range run a few pounds, euros or dollars a strip.

Is Ground Kontrol a real film photo booth or a digital one?

Real film. The strip is developed with real photo chemistry inside the machine, so give it a few minutes to drop.

Do I need to book, or can I just walk up to Ground Kontrol?

Just walk up. It's a coin-op booth, not a hire service — no booking, no attendant. If the venue is open, the booth is on.

How many photos do you get at Ground Kontrol, and how long does it take?

One strip of four shots. The machine takes the four in quick succession, then develops the strip on the spot — usually three to five minutes before it drops into the slot.

What time can I use the booth at Ground Kontrol?

Daily Open. The booth is inside the venue, so those are the hours that matter.

How do I get to Ground Kontrol?

It's at Portland, Oregon. Use the map above for transit, walking or driving directions from wherever you are.

Can I get into Ground Kontrol with a wheelchair or a pram?

We haven't checked access at this venue. Classic booths have a fixed bench and a curtain, so the booth itself is a tight fit; the venue's own access is the thing to ask them about.

What if the booth at Ground Kontrol is out of order when I get there?

It happens — these machines are decades old. Scroll to "Nearest booths" in Portland for the closest alternative, and tap "Report an issue" so we can flag it for everyone else.
