Band Banners & Backdrops
Alternatives
We can also make even cheaper band banners and scrims from standard PVC or Mesh banner material. Although these do save on initial cost, larger cheap band banners and backdrops are more difficult to pack without creasing, take up more storage room and will not look as good for as long.

Buying Guide
Band Banners are a hugely popular product at Banner World. Having now produced Band Backdrops for over 8 years and with a couple of our managers being involved in local bands, we have a fair bit of experience to draw on.
We print and manufacture band and stage banners and backdrops to any size and to any finishing specification. We also have a range of materials and band backdrop fabrics available.
By far the best material for a normal Band Banner is Polyester 210gsm. Whilst cheaper PVC Banner material is heavy and difficult to pack, store and transport, Polyester 210gsm is lightweight and can be packed and folded very small – crease and ruck free. Moreover, the dye-sublimation print technology used on fabrics produces fabulous rich and vibrant colours. Fabric is also much easier to add custom effects like glitter or rhinestones to.

Lighting
As standard our banners and backdrops are non-reflective, making them ideal under stage lighting conditions. Band photographers love them!
Our standard Band Backdrop fabric is 210gsm Polyester. This is ideal when used against a wall or black backcloth. Any strong light behind this type of banner will show through.
Blackback Pro fabric has a black resin backing which will block out any light from behind. Specify this fabric if you may be using the banner outdoors or when lighting behind the banner needs to be blocked out.
Design Guide for Band Backdrop Printing
The most effective band backdrops are simple! Less is more! A simple design with just your band name or logo on a dark background is ideal.
This will let you audience know exactly who you are!
Most often, the backdrop will be fitted at the back of the stage, so ensure that the name or logo is visible whilst the band are playing. Having the name or logo in the top half of the backdrop is therefore vital.
If your band name or logo is easily visible and readable, you won’t need to worry about adding a phone number, web address or social media details.
