Most live printing events in San Francisco land between $5,000 and $15,000 all-in. Your number depends on four things: how many guests you're printing for, how many hours the station runs, which garments you choose, and the size of the crew and setup. Every quote is itemized — crew, presses, garments, setup and teardown, and every print — as one clear number with no surprise fees.
What drives the price in San Francisco
- Guest count & volume — more shirts means more presses, crew, and garments.
- Hours — a two-hour cocktail activation costs less than an all-day Moscone Center booth.
- Garments — a basic tee, a premium retail-fit shirt, and a hoodie sit at different price points.
- Stations & methods — adding a hat bar or a second press scales the setup.
Because we're a SoCal-based crew, we travel to San Francisco regularly, and travel is folded into your quote as one clear line rather than a surprise. The fastest way to a real number is to send your date, venue, and headcount — we return an itemized San Francisco quote within 24 hours. For a fuller breakdown, see how our pricing works.
