We run live activation stations all over San Diego, from the Convention Center and Gaslamp hotels to Petco Park and North County breweries. San Diego's convention calendar and festival scene are a natural fit for booth activations and sponsor lounges. Guests pick a product and design, a trained operator presses it in seconds, and it goes out the door on a real person — a walking billboard for your campaign across the city.

What we bring to San Diego

  • Live DTF heat press — full-color, photo-quality tees, hoodies, and totes on the spot.
