Band Backdrop Printing

From £248.75, with the cheapest settings and the Saver service. That clears the £100 mark on its own, so UK mainland delivery costs nothing. Select it on the page and swap materials, finishes and speed to watch how the figure moves. Sizes for these backdrops go from 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm), 5 in all. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you. On this page, Band Backdrops start from £108.80.

No surprises: what the page shows for these backdrops is the goods figure you pay at checkout. Delivery is the one extra, £7.95 to a UK mainland address, and it drops away when the goods reach £100 after discounts. Paid artwork help shows up as its own basket line, so you can check each amount before paying. Sizes for these backdrops go from 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm), 5 in all. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you. On its opening option, Band Backdrops leaves us after 5 working days on Saver.

Of course. Anyone can order, with no trade account and no minimum beyond one. Prices for Band Backdrops begin at £108.80, checkout works without an account and you pay by card. Parents, clubs, churches and small shops order single items all the time. At £108.80 the opening price is already over £100, so mainland delivery costs nothing.

Yes. Choose Express and Band Backdrops can be on the way in 1 working day on the opening option, for £144.99, where Saver is £108.80 and takes 5 days. Then give the courier one to three working days, and send the artwork with the order, because the clock does not run until the file is sorted. If the date is really tight, message us on the Contact page before paying and we will tell you honestly.

Easiest route: they send the finished file to whoever placed the order, and it gets uploaded after ordering. Up to 3 files of 25 MB each are fine. They can also reach us through the Contact page, as long as they quote your order number so it lands on the right job. Production waits for the checked file, so a late file means a later dispatch date. Sizes for these backdrops go from 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm), 5 in all. On this page, Band Backdrops start from £108.80.

That is why a person looks at every upload before anything is printed. Typical snags are a document at the wrong size, missing bleed, blurry photos and words sitting too near the trim. If we spot one, we explain what to change and you send a fresh file. Or hand it over to us: for £15 our typesetting places your wording and logo on a neat layout, with one first draft and two rounds of changes. If you have no file, you can build the design for these backdrops in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering. For reference, Band Backdrops are listed in 5 sizes, the smallest being 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm).

Big items seen from a distance only need 100 to 150 dpi at full size. So a 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm) layout wants about 15,748 by 9,843 pixels. Keep lettering and logos as vectors if you can. An image copied off a web page or a social post rarely has enough pixels; if yours looks likely to print soft, our file check flags it. Sizes for these backdrops go from 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm) at the small end to 13 ft 1 in × 8 ft 2 in (4000 × 2500 mm), 5 in all.

Word, PowerPoint and Canva are a fair place to start, but export a high quality PDF from them before uploading. Our first choice is always a PDF at the ordered size with fonts embedded or outlined, followed by AI, EPS or SVG, then high resolution JPG, PNG or TIFF. You can add three files, each up to 25 MB, on this page, or upload them after ordering from the email we send. Make the artwork for these backdrops the same size as the one you order, such as 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm). On this page, Band Backdrops start from £108.80.

Two ways. Buy the file on its own: finish your design and pay £9.99 for the print-ready PDF, though you give up the right to cancel as soon as you start downloading it. Or order printing, and a full resolution PDF of the design travels with the order, waiting for you in your confirmation email and under My Account once you have paid. Make the artwork for these backdrops the same size as the one you order, such as 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm). Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

Flash and strong lights can glint off any smooth print. Keep pale, shiny areas away from the spot behind people's heads, and aim the lights in from an angle, not head-on. Busy or darker designs hide glare better than big plain light areas. Pull it tight when you hang it: creases and ripples stand out far more in pictures than in real life. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you.

PVC-free is a 400gsm material with no PVC in it at all. It prints in the same full colour and is well suited to indoor displays, shops, exhibitions and short-term jobs. If it is going outside for a long time, or somewhere with a lot of wind, the 440gsm PVC or mesh stands up better. Both are priced on the page, so you can check the same size in each material before you decide. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner.

Yes. PVC hangs flat and the print comes out crisp, so it suits school halls, church halls, receptions, stage fronts and indoor events. There is also a 400gsm PVC-free material on this product, a good pick for inside if you would rather avoid PVC. Inside you can skip the ties altogether. Hang it by the eyelets from hooks or a length of cord, or use hanging strips that peel off cleanly.

Think of solid PVC stretched along open fencing as a sail. Every gust presses on the whole sheet, and all that force ends up in the eyelets and the ties. So use every eyelet, pull it firm without stretching it, look at the ties again after the first blustery spell, and bring it in if a storm is on the way. If it has to stay up for weeks somewhere exposed, mesh is the better buy because much of the wind blows through it. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Nothing is printed ahead of time: each backdrop is made to order for you. On this page, Band Backdrops start from £108.80.

Make sure it is bone dry and clean, then roll it up loosely with the print on the outside, round a cardboard tube if one is handy. Try not to fold it, because sharp folds leave creases and the ink can crack along them. Snip off old cable ties before rolling so they do not press marks into the print, and store the roll in a dry cupboard well clear of radiators.

No. Each design goes into the basket as a separate line with its own file or online design, and you pay for them all in one checkout.

No. One delivery charge covers the whole basket, so adding Band Backdrops to other items does not add a second one.

Pick the reuse-artwork option on the second one and you pay the artwork fee just once. Each line keeps its own size and quantity.

Yes. Guest checkout is fine, and any debit or credit card works. Stripe processes the payment for us, which keeps your card number off our system entirely.

Yes. You do not need any print knowledge to order Band Backdrops.

If you would rather make it yourself, the online designer checks the technical side as you go. Whatever you choose, a real person looks at the file before printing.

Yes. Line the logos up along the bottom or in a row, keep them all a similar size so nobody feels left out, and hold them 50 mm in from the edges. Short of time? Our typesetting service (£15) or a design worked up from your notes (£35) can put it together for you, with one first draft and two rounds of changes. If a sponsor only has a blurry logo, we can rebuild it for £30. If you have no file, you can build the design for these backdrops in our free online designer and check every detail before ordering.

You can. Designing online costs nothing until you order, so make a draft, show it to the group and tweak it as often as you like. The on-screen watermark is only there on the preview and is never printed. The designer flags things like small text or low-resolution photos as you go, but it cannot catch a wrong date, so have a second person read it.

A bowl of warm water with a drop of gentle washing-up liquid and a soft sponge or cloth is all you need. Rinse with clean water afterwards and let it dry, hanging up or laid flat. Keep away from solvents, scouring pads and pressure washers, as they can strip the ink or scuff the surface. Only roll it up once it is completely dry, otherwise it may mark or start to smell. For these backdrops, the material can be 440gsm PVC banner, hemmed, eyelets; or 400gsm PVC-free banner. Before delivery, these backdrops cost from £108.80. For reference, Band Backdrops are listed in 5 sizes, the smallest being 6 ft 7 in × 6 ft 7 in (2000 × 2000 mm).
