Conferences

Conference name badges, shipped ready.

Delegates walk in wearing the day. We programme 250×122 e-paper faces in Cleckheaton and ship charged badges — hire for your event dates or buy to keep.

Book a kit Open designer

The foyer printer is the bottleneck.

Registration exports arrive late. Walk-ins appear. Speakers swap sessions. A print desk turns into a queue while the opening keynote starts without half the room named.

Paper inserts also land in the bin after a single day — fine for disposable marketing collateral, expensive when you run the same conference format twice a year.

Ship the day on the badge, not in the queue.

Design attendee, speaker, and VIP faces in the designer — brick red, black, and e-paper white only. Import your delegate list or paste names, attach QR actions, and we programme before dispatch.

Fifty badges for one conference day is £320 hire plus £20 postage under the current formula. The kit returns on a prepaid label when the event ends.

Templates

Pick a face. Open it in the designer.

Attendee

Name, organisation, and a scan target. The default for stacked sessions.

Speaker

A SPEAKER bar across the top so the room knows who has the mic before they stand up.

VIP

Black field, red VIP mark, white name. Reads as access from across the foyer.

Exhibitor

Booth number as a red slab. Find the stand without unfolding a map.

Multi-day and multi-track events

Hire spans calendar days — a two-day summit multiplies the per-day rate. Update faces during the hire window when a delegate upgrades from attendee to workshop host without reprinting inserts.

See the event badges guide for quantity planning, or the e-ink vs printed page for cost comparison with onsite printing.

FAQ

Conferences — common questions

How many conference badges should I hire?

Count delegates, speakers, staff, and a small spare buffer for walk-ins. Fifty badges suits many single-track days; larger summits should email hire@inkbadgehire.com for volume.

Can I hire badges for a multi-day conference?

Yes. Hire multiplies by calendar days in your window. Update faces during the hire period when roles change without reprinting inserts.

Do conference badges include QR codes?

Yes — design QR on the face in the designer or attach visitor magic links from your delegate list.

Is onsite badge printing still needed?

Not for names you know before doors open. Walk-ins can be added during the hire window if you included spare badges in your quantity.

What kit size fits a conference?

The fifty-badge kit matches many conference floors. Smaller workshops may start with ten or twenty-five.

Do you ship conference kits across the UK?

Yes — programmed from Cleckheaton with £20 out-and-back postage on hire quotes.
