Live printing for conventions in Detroit mostly means Huntington Place, the riverfront hall that used to be Cobo, with the bigger suburban expos out at the Suburban Collection Showplace in Novi. A working press in your booth turns aisle traffic into a line, and every person in that line spends a couple of minutes with your team. Our gear rides a freight truck from Fullerton and the crew lands a day before move-in.
Why exhibitors book a live printing booth in Detroit
- Fits your footprint: from a 10×10 inline booth to a 50-foot island at Huntington Place.
- A line that gives you time: about two minutes per guest at the press is two minutes your reps get to talk.
- Electrical sorted early: we send the spec for two dedicated 120V/20A circuits so the order goes in through the show before its deadline.
- Freight on the show's schedule: our cases ship to the receiving window and we build during move-in.
Most of what we run on a Detroit show floor is live t-shirt printing: a guest picks a size, watches the shirt come off the press about two minutes later, and walks the aisle wearing your logo. When sponsor art is full color, a DTF station handles it in the same footprint, and a hat bar works well on a three- or four-day show because people come back for a second visit. Shows that land in January or February usually swap a share of the tees for crewnecks.
It suits auto-industry launches and supplier expos, where the crowd can tell a giveaway from something made in front of them. Pair it with printed totes so attendees carry your brand across the floor all day.
