Band Banner

[PURPOLARIS]

We're looking at getting a band backdrop made. I'm looking for some input as to size, material, where to get etc. Any info would be appreciated.

We use www.bandbanners.co.uk

Great service and find that the actual banners are great quality and long lasting. 3.5 x 2.5 Meters

What do you hang them from?

I bought a plain black photographic backdrop, but struggled to find any way if fixing up. Had some stands but far too flimsy.

[crez5150]

We bought a stand that they sell especially for the banner you've bought. It stretches it so that its taut.

Nice. I think it would be worth it if we were getting well paid gigs once a month.

Yeah they are not cheap... I think that one was around £500 with the stand. It's waterproof/flame retardant so meets most venue specs. It's really heavy duty and the print looks really good.

Have a look at this site.....

I've ordered a couple of the smaller 6ftx2ft banners from here, plus flyers and they are very professional in what they do.

They do various sizes of backdrops etc......

Thanks for the input, I'll have a look at the sites mentioned. We won't be going as high as £500, it'll be more like £150 tops although that £500 banner looks excellent.
