Introduction
Concert weather is approaching, and you know what that means…FESTIVAL SEASON! As musicians and music lovers alike, we love a good show, and a good show always has merch. We have created a merch forecast where you can learn more about our predictions for the most popular merch in the music scene this year.
This is the perfect option for band tees, festival staff shirts, and even commemorative festival wear. Just like the name says, this tee is a classic! Made from 6.5oz 10% combed cotton, this tee is great to screen print on and made to last.

As mentioned in our trend forecast, vintage vibes are IN! Give your festival goers the option to purchase a custom varsity jacket that can be renewed every year with new decorations such as buttons, patches, and embroidery.
According to a poll done on EDM.com, 64% of live event attendees don’t wear ear protection at live shows. Help keep your fans' hearing safe by selling and/or giving away these silicone earplug keychains.
Surf Cotton Camo Cap + Frame Soft Camo Cap
Hunt out good music with these styles of camo hats. These two hat styles are extremely popular and are available in different colors. So if camo just isn’t your jam, we have something else that will be!
Want people to be able to see things from a mile away? Look no further! Inflatable signage is a great way to create photo opportunities for your community while also directing people to specific locations in a large environment, such as music festivals.
