Printers - Tips for searching

Tips for searching Printers

Whether you need gig flyers, posters, tickets, t-shirts, banners, backdrops & signs – no gig or festival would be complete without the services of a reliable printing company. Some of the printing companies listed in our directory work regularly with music industry clients and some are just handy, local and perfect for a musician on a budget.

Look for printers that are based locally to you & give them a call to make enquiries. We recommend getting a few quotes from different places to get the best price and it can always be a good idea to chat to other bands & artists you know from the area to see if there are any printers they’ve used in the past that they rate.

What’s in a Printer listing?

• Contact details
• Social media profiles (where applicable)
• Contact name(s)
• Items they can produce/print onto
• Whether they have an in-house design team
• If they can cater for small runs
• Whether they have worked with musicians, bands or music industry in the past
