No fluff, just answers
Everything planners ask about the mobile t‑shirt bar
These are the questions that show up in our inbox before nearly every booking, answered the way we would answer them on the phone. Each one gets its own page so you can forward it to whoever holds the budget.
What is a mobile t‑shirt bar?
The plain-English definition: what shows up, what guests do, and how it differs from a merch table or a print shop order.
Read the answerWhat does it cost?
The real anchors — starting price, hourly crew rate, travel — and the four inputs that move a quote up or down.

Footprint, circuits, generator compatibility, indoor rules, and load-in timing — the page to send your venue contact.

How fast is it? One press finishes a shirt every 60–90 seconds and serves 40–60 guests an hour; a second press roughly doubles that.
Do guests pay? Almost never — the host books the bar and guests order free. Retail-style setups where shoppers pay per shirt are possible; ask when you request a quote.
Are the prints any good? Full-color DTF transfers: photographic detail, soft feel, and wash durability that outlasts the event by years. See them up close in the gallery.
How far will the bar travel? Orange County, LA, and San Diego with no travel fee; Las Vegas and similar runs at a flat $900; nationwide by routing. Details by city on the locations pages.
