We Create Live Printing Experiences That Guests Remember
Event Print Live is a live event printing and product personalisation service based in London. We help brands, agencies, businesses and private clients create interactive experiences where guests can customise products in real time.
Instead of handing out generic merchandise, your guests become part of the creative process. They can add names, initials, artwork, graphics, logos, messages or campaign designs using our custom design stations. We then produce the finished item live at the event using the most suitable print or personalisation method.
The result is more than a giveaway. It is an experience, a conversation starter, a branded memory and a personalised product your guests are far more likely to keep.
Live Personalisation for Events, Brands, Retail & Celebrations
Whether you want to drive footfall to an exhibition stand, add a premium touch to a product launch, entertain wedding guests or create a memorable retail activation, Event Print Live can tailor the experience to your audience.
For Brands & Agencies
Create a high-impact activation that attracts guests, encourages dwell time and gives people a personalised product connected to your campaign. Our live printing experiences are ideal for experiential marketing, PR events, product launches, retail activations and brand pop-ups.
For Corporate Events
Add an interactive feature to conferences, networking events, staff parties, internal launches, client events and company celebrations. Guests can personalise useful branded products while enjoying a polished, professionally managed experience.
For Retail & Pop-Ups
Bring product customisation into your store, showroom or pop-up space. A live design station can help increase engagement, make products feel more premium and give customers a reason to visit, share and buy.
For Trade Shows & Exhibitions
Stand out from surrounding exhibitors with a live personalisation experience that draws people in. Personalised giveaways can help increase conversations, encourage lead capture and make your brand more memorable after the show.
For Weddings & Private Events
Give guests something more personal than a standard favour. From printed keepsakes and embroidered items to engraved gifts and photo prints, we create interactive experiences that feel fun, premium and meaningful.
How Event Print Live Works
Our process is designed to be simple for your team and exciting for your guests.
Step 1: Choose the Experience
We help you choose the right personalisation method for your event, audience, products, timings and budget. This could include UV printing, embroidery, engraving, hot foil stamping, heat press, photo printing, stickers, sublimation or a combined setup.
Step 2: Prepare the Designs
Before the event, we prepare the design templates, branding, artwork and software setup. Guests can choose from approved layouts, add personal details and create something that fits your brand guidelines.
Step 3: Guests Design on iPads
At the event, guests use our iPad design stations to create their personalised item. The experience is intuitive, branded and designed to keep queues moving smoothly.
Step 4: We Personalise Live
Once the design is submitted, our team produces the item on site using the selected equipment. Guests can see the process happening live, which adds theatre and excitement to the experience.
Step 5: Guests Leave With a Personalised Product
Each guest receives a finished item they designed themselves. It is personal, memorable and connected to your event.
