Event Wristbands

The use of wristbands at events has grown hugely in recent years as venues and organisers realise the great benefits that they offer. Not only are wristbands the perfect way to manage attendees but some types also create a wonderful souvenir after the occasion has finished. We provide a wide range of different styles available in a number of materials including Tyvek, Fabric, Silicone and Vinyl. All types of Event Wristbands are fully customisable, ensuring that whichever material you choose the wristband is completely unique to your event.

Customised wristbands can be used for a variety of applications at venues and events focussed around entry management. Typically they are used in fields such as ticketing and guest ID, to VIP access, alcohol age verification and access restrictions. No matter how large or small the occasion, the use of wristbands for events creates a tamper proof system that ensures you have full control over activities both in and outside the venue. Security staff find wristbands much easier to work with as it clearly defines access or entitlement by simply looking at the wrist of the wearer.

Security at any public event such as festivals or concerts is always a key concern and wristbands provide a cost effective solution. Tyvek wristbands are typically designed for use at events for between 1-3 days and are almost impossible to pass on or sell to any third parties. They are strong and versatile because they cannot be torn or stretched, ensuring identification is always possible from the start of the event right through to the finish.

Our staff have years of experience and will be happy to suggest the right material for your event, be it a birthday party, stag/hen do, anniversary, festival, charity event, theatre trip or anything else. To customise the wristband include any wording or logo detail required on the interactive designer. Choose from a large selection of colours before confirming the order, and let us do the rest.

Silicone Wristbands for Events

Score: 3/5

Summary: Depending on the type of event Silicone wristbands could be ideal in terms of separating groups of people. However as the band can be removed it would not be sufficient for ticketed events where security is important. If the event is free of charge and open to the public than silicone wristbands would be a great way to promote a brand or raise awareness for a special cause or charity.

Pros

Silicone wristbands come in both adults and children sizes meaning they are available for all ages and are very comfortable to wear. The product is extremely durable and can be worn for months after an event takes place.
Plastic wristbands are an easy way for a brand to connect with the public and potential customers. They are commonly used as giveaways at brand activations where consumers can show their support by wearing the wristband.

Cons

If the event is only for ticket holders then silicone wristbands cannot be used as a form of controlling entrance. They can be removed and given to third parties which would endanger the security of attendees and the event.
Depending on the size of the event, the minimum quantity order for silicone wristbands is 100 units. Production time of two weeks is also prohibitive for those organising events at short notice.

Tyvek Wristbands for Events

Score: 5/5

Summary: When people talk about Event wristbands 99% of the time they are talking about Tyvek wristbands. The product is tamperproof and easy to apply ensuring a hassle-free entrance to any event. Tyvek wristbands give organisers the peace of mind that the logistics of any event are secure when using these bands.

Pros

Paper wristbands are completely tamperproof and cannot be removed and reapplied on another person. This key point is especially important at events with different areas and levels of access such as backstage wristbands / VIP wristbands and points where entrance is controlled.
Tyvek wristbands are extremely cheap and they can include text and logos to ensure no counterfeits are used to access the event. The wristbands can be applied within a matter of seconds which enables an efficient door management system for any event big or small.

Cons

The only constraint with a Tyvek wristband is that it cannot be worn for longer than 2 to 3 days and if the event is taking place over a number of days the band may need to be replaced at some point due to wear and tear.

Fabric Wristbands for Events

Score: 4/5

Summary: Depending on the type and duration of the event, Fabric wristbands could be the ideal product. They are most commonly found at multi day events and can be worn for weeks or even months. Woven wristbands are synonymous with music festivals and outdoor events as they are extremely durable but also fully customizable. Event organisers would normally consider fabric wristbands as a superior product when compared to Tyvek wristbands which only last up to 48 hours.

Pros

Event organisers can customizer woven wristbands to include the event name and even a logo ensuring no counterfeit wristbands can be used to gain entry
barrel locks are the best option to ensure that the wristband cannot be removed or transferred once it is applied

Cons

Fabric wristbands can take up to 12 days for production so events on a tight deadline may find this time frame too long
Smaller events of less than 500 people could find the unit price too high, especially when compared to Tyvek wristbands

Vinyl Wristbands for Events

Score: 4/5

Summary: Vinyl Wristbands could be the perfect solution for your Event depending on the duration. Vinyl Wristbands are best suited to an event lasting 2+ days where admission is against an entrance fee or ticket purchase making a secure Wristband essential. If your event offers benefits or perks then a tabbed Vinyl Wristband could be ideal with guests redeeming a Tab in exchange for a benefit. This allows you to operate a cashless system with goods or services being exchanged for tabs included in the Wristband/ticket price.

Pros

Printing is available including Text, Logo and even variable data such as QR code, sequential numbering or Barcodes.
A locked closure system means a Vinyl Wristband cannot be transferred without clear signs of tampering.

Cons

Full colour print is expensive and Organisers may prefer a Fabric Wristband which can be printed in full colour.
Unit price is relatively high on orders of 1,000 units or less which may see Event Organisers prefer Tyvek or Fabric Wristbands.
