Printed apparel for events — fast, recognisable, on time

Crew shirts, security vests, first-aid vests, volunteer T-shirts and visitor merchandise. For festivals, corporate events, sports events and concerts. We get that the date is fixed — and deliver on time.

What we supply for events

Crew T-shirts and hoodies

For the organising team, technicians, build-up, take-down. In one standout colour per role so everyone knows who does what.

Security vests

high-vis with “SECURITY” clearly printed. Also in higher-end versions: black vests with reflective print for a professional look.

First-aid and emergency response vests

Standard red or green, with cross logo. Often in small numbers but recognisable to visitors.

Steward and host shirts

A bit less formal than security, often in a separate colour group. T-shirt or polo with “INFO” or event logo.

Visitor merchandise

Festival T-shirts with line-up, event logos, full-colour prints on band shirts. On-site sales.

Festival posters & merch-table prints

Screen-printed posters for your merch stand or as VIP gifts. Up to 70×100 cm, unlimited colours by arrangement, signed & numbered editions possible. See graphic screen printing.

Banners, flags, signage

For wayfinding and on-site branding. Not our main specialty, but we coordinate this with trusted partners as part of a complete package.

Caps and accessories

For crew and visitors. With event logo, in stock colours or brand colour.

Which print technique for events?

Short lead times: how do we manage?

Rush delivery from 3 working days:
— email us for options, often more than you’d expect.

Stock holding of standard textiles:
— basic T-shirts and high-vis vests are immediately available.

Pre-orders for recurring events:
— if you organise the festival annually, plan ahead. Setup costs are already covered.

Clear up-front planning:
— we set up a plan together with deadlines for design, approval and delivery. No surprises.

Last-minute personalisations:
— names on badges, role tags added — often possible up to a week before the event.

Events have hard deadlines. The festival starts or it doesn’t — you can’t shift that. We’re set up for it:

Colour groups per role: our advice

For larger events, role-based colour coding works brilliantly:

Red/Orange — First aid and medical
Yellow-fluo — Security (often with reflective details)
Black or dark blue — Stewards and information
Bright colour (green, purple, etc.) — Crew/production
White or brand colour — Organising/management
Varying colours — Volunteers (per day or shift)

From a distance, everyone knows where help is and who’s responsible for what.

Tips for event organisers

Start on time, even if it feels distant.:
Three months before the event is comfortable. One month is possible, but stress comes with it.

Always order 10–15% extra.:
People show up unannounced, shirts get dirty or lost. Plan for it.

Use role tags on the back.:
“SECURITY”, “FIRST AID”, “INFO” large on the back, small logo on the chest. Far more functional than a fancy big logo without a clear role.

Personalisation takes time.:
Name printing seems simple but takes time to do right. Plan ahead.

One contact per role.:
We prefer talking to one person for security shirts, one for crew, one for merchandise. Prevents double orders and miscommunication.

Frequently asked questions

How fast can you deliver crew shirts?

With stock textile and a simple design: 3–5 working days. Rush (with planning capacity): 2–3 working days possible. Specify when projects are urgent.

Do you make merchandise for on-site sales?

Yes, and we advise on what sells well. Typically: one main design with date/year, in 2–3 colour variants.

Do you do signage like banners and flags?

Not as a main specialty. For banners and flags we work with trusted partners. For a complete event textile + signage package, talk to us — we coordinate the whole process.

Can security vests be leased?

We sell, not lease. But for recurring events we can arrange stock holding for reuse — often cheaper than leasing in the long term.

How do we keep multiple colour groups manageable?

We deliver with clear labelling per group. Sometimes in separate boxes per role, with packing lists.

What if we have last-minute quantity changes?

Best to discuss in advance. Last-minute extras depend on stock — often possible, sometimes at a surcharge.

Do you handle events at multiple locations simultaneously?

Yes. For corporate events or festival tours across multiple locations we produce centrally and split delivery to each venue. One order, one invoice. See corporate apparel for our multi-location approach.
