Live Event Printing in Tampa: Screen Printing at Your Venue

A press brought to your event, not a pickup order.

Looking for screen printing in Tampa for an event? We bring the press to your venue and print custom apparel in front of your guests, with real screens and ink.

A screen printing shop at your event

A normal Tampa print order means sending a file and picking up boxes later. Here the press comes to the venue and runs while guests watch. The prints are the same quality, and the printing becomes part of the event. It suits Gasparilla parties, game-day crowds and pop-ups at Sparkman Wharf.

What we screen print

Around Tampa Bay

We set up anywhere around the bay, from a booth at Tampa Convention Center to a waterfront lawn in St. Petersburg. Each press prints up to 60 shirts an hour, and the standard two-press station clears 100+.

Rough numbers first? Send the headcount and the hours. We'll size the press line and send an itemized quote within 24 hours.

Tampa planning

Screen printing for a Tampa event

Screens are burned in Fullerton before the freight leaves, so final art is due about a week out. After that the design is set, which is fine when everyone wants the same shirt.

We're a Fullerton crew, so for Tampa the gear crosses the country as freight and the printers land a day early to build. Each station takes roughly a 10×10 space on two dedicated 120V/20A circuits.
