Banners and signs for Edinburgh events
6 products picked for Edinburgh events, with live prices on the option each one opens on. The lowest here is Poster Printing from £20.42; choose your size and material on its page.
Festival season #
Every August the Edinburgh Festival Fringe fills the city with shows in hundreds of venues, and performers, producers and venue teams order posters, PVC banners for venue fronts, A-frame pavement signs and roller banners for box offices. Order well before July: in festival season everyone is printing at the same time, and a late order can cost you your opening night.
Conferences and shows #
- EICC: the Edinburgh International Conference Centre hosts conferences and exhibitions, and delegates order roller banners, PVC-free banners and printed tablecloths.
- Royal Highland Centre: at Ingliston near Edinburgh Airport, home of the Royal Highland Show each June, where exhibitors use outdoor PVC and mesh banners and feather flags.
- Murrayfield: hospitality and supporter banners on match days.
Universities, shops and building work #
Societies and departments at the University of Edinburgh, Edinburgh Napier University and Heriot-Watt University order open day and freshers’ banners. Shops and cafes order A-frames and window graphics. Contractors order mesh and Heras fence banners and site signs; in a conservation area, check the council’s rules on signs and banners before you put anything up.
Banner printing Edinburgh: putting a banner up outdoors #
Search for banner printing Edinburgh and most results are local shops; we are an online print shop in Manchester and send every order to Edinburgh by tracked courier. If your banner is going up outdoors, on a building, a fence or near a road, outdoor advertising in Edinburgh is covered by the Town and Country Planning (Control of Advertisements) (Scotland) Regulations 1984. Many temporary banners can go up without an application, but check with the local council first if you are unsure.

Ordering banners to Edinburgh: questions answered
Is Edinburgh on the standard delivery rate?
Yes. Edinburgh is mainland Scotland: £7.95 per order and free on orders of £99 and over (goods total after discounts). Only the Scottish islands are quoted; mainland Highlands postcodes add £10 per order.
When should I order for the Fringe?
As early as you can, ideally in June or early July. The product page shows production days for each turnaround from when your order and artwork are confirmed, and courier delivery usually takes 1 to 3 working days after dispatch. Leave a few spare days in August.
Are you an Edinburgh printer?
No. We are an online shop run from Manchester. We check your order there, make it in our workshop or with our UK production partner, and courier it to Edinburgh.
What is best outside a festival venue?
A PVC banner with eyelets for railings and walls, and an A-frame pavement sign where the venue allows one on the pavement. Posters suit noticeboards and windows. All have live prices on their product pages.
Can you deliver to the Royal Highland Centre or the EICC?
Yes, we deliver to any address. Venues set goods-in times and labelling rules, so read the exhibitor information and add your stand or booking details at checkout.
