Most live printing events in San Antonio land between $5,000 and $15,000 all-in. Rather than a fixed menu, we build a quote around your event — because a two-hour cocktail activation and an all-day Henry B. González Convention Center booth are very different jobs. Every quote is itemized and honest, sent within 24 hours.
What your quote includes
One number, no surprise fees. A typical San Antonio quote covers:
| Included | What it means |
|---|---|
| Crew | Trained printers to run the station and keep the line moving. |
| Equipment | Presses, flash dryers, ink, tables — everything but the venue. |
| Garments | Blank shirts (or hats/totes) in a full size curve, XS–4XL on hand. |
| Setup & teardown | Load-in, station setup, and breakdown around your run-of-show. |
| Every print | The custom printing itself — no per-shirt surprise at the end. |
What moves the number
- Guest count & volume — more shirts means more presses, crew, and garments.
- Hours — how long the station runs at your San Antonio event.
- Garments — a basic tee, a premium retail-fit shirt, and a hoodie sit at different price points.
- Stations & methods — adding a hat bar, DTF, or a second press scales the setup.
- Travel — South Texas events handled end to end — travel and lodging folded into one clear number.
Estimate only. The $5K–$15K range covers most events but isn't a quote — the fastest way to a real number is to send your date, venue, and headcount below.
