Recommendations to make your event run smoothly

Simpler is better. The best events are ones with just a couple of options. The process is quicker and people get their order without waiting in a long line.

When choosing shirt colors, we recommend lighter shirts for live printing as dark shirts require an additional white underbase print to make the colors vibrant.

Pre-printing a portion of shirts before the event can reduce lines and delays. With pre-printing, we can have a large number of shirts for the event and still give guests an interactive experience with the production process. We will determine how many pre-prints will be necessary based on your event specifications.

We ask for a 12′ x 12′ area for our setup but it’s a good idea to allocate more space as live printing can be a popular attraction!

It must be at least 60° F outside for our shirt dryer to work effectively. If the weather will be on the cold side, things will run more efficiently if we are set up indoors.
