Answer
How much does a print bar cost?
A staffed print bar for a local Southern California event starts around $5,000, and the final number is built from a few honest drivers: how long the bar runs, how many guests it serves, which garments are on the menu, and how far we travel. Rather than a fixed package, the price is quoted to the night so you only pay for the station your event actually needs.
Attendants are $250 per hour and cover setup, live pressing, and teardown — so a four-hour reception and an eight-hour festival price very differently. Guest count sets how many press lanes and attendants keep the line short; we'd rather add a lane than let guests wait. Garment choice is the next biggest lever: a menu of tees and caps costs less than one built around premium fleece.
Travel is simple and flat. Local Orange County, Los Angeles, and San Diego events carry no travel fee. Anywhere beyond Southern California is a flat $900, with nationwide programs quoted individually. There are no surprise line items — the quote includes the styled bar, the press equipment, the pre-produced transfers, the crew, and the setup. Send your date, headcount, and city and we'll turn a starting anchor into a firm number.
