Printing in Leeds for freshers and societies #
The University of Leeds and Leeds Beckett University take in thousands of new students every September, and every society wants to be the stall people remember. Our freshers week banners tie across the table front. A roller banner stands behind you without any fuss. Balls and awards nights want a backdrop banner for the photos.

Kirkgate Market and the high street #
Traders at Kirkgate Market live or die by being seen from the aisle. A PVC banner above the stall does the shouting for you. Independent shops go for shop signs and sale banners. Cafes and bars often stick a feather flag by the door on busy weekends.
Big nights and match days #
- first direct bank Arena: fan banners for gigs, big enough to read from the back of the floor.
- Royal Armouries Hall: conference and dinner kit down at Leeds Dock.
- Elland Road and Headingley Stadium: club banners, supporters’ flags and hospitality boards.
- Harrogate Convention Centre: just up the road, a regular trip for Leeds exhibitors.
Building sites and landlords #
Sites along the Aire go up behind fencing, and mesh banners are the sensible choice there because the wind blows through. Landlords with a student house to fill use Correx boards for signs that survive a wet Yorkshire winter. Not sure whether to go 6 ft or 8 ft? Every product page prices each size live, so compare before you commit.
Birthdays, leaving dos and everything else #
Not everything is business. Families order a banner for a big birthday, a welcome home or a leaving do, and one with eyelets hangs off a fence or a gazebo just as happily as it does off a market stall. Charities running a sponsored walk want the same thing at the start line, plus a couple of flags so the stragglers can find the tea.
Putting it up outside #
Outdoor adverts here come under England’s 2007 advertisement regulations. Lots of short-term banners need no permission at all. Heading for a wall, railings or a roadside and not sure? Have a word with Leeds City Council.

Leeds orders: your questions
Is there somewhere in Leeds I can pop into?
Nope. FatPrint is an online print business with no shop or office anywhere in the city. Everything is made to order and leaves by tracked courier from within the UK.
What does it cost to send an order to Leeds?
£7.95 a parcel, or nothing once the order passes £100 after discounts (artwork fees sit outside that sum). Anything longer than 3 m, or a board beyond A0, adds £15.
I need a banner sharpish. How quick can you be?
Choose the fastest turnaround on the product page; its making time is printed right beside it. The count begins once we have a confirmed order plus usable artwork, and the courier normally needs one to three working days after that.
Roller banner or PVC banner for a freshers stall?
Roller, if there is floor behind the table, because it stands up by itself. PVC or a freshers banner with eyelets if you would rather tie it across the table front or a railing.
Can our society or department pay by purchase order?
Yes. Pop the society or department name in the notes when you check out, and if finance wants a written quote or PO first, the Get a quote page handles that.
