Custom printed tent cards are the simplest and most widely used tabletop display format in the hospitality and events category. The single scored fold creates a self-supporting A-frame card that stands on any flat surface — a table, a counter, a registration desk, or a place setting — and carries a message, promotion, or brand communication at exactly the point-of-presence where it will be seen and acted upon.
For suppliers working on café and restaurant promotional programs, event table setups, conference delegate tables, hotel room desk communications, and any venue where a small-format, self-supporting display piece is needed quickly and at low cost, the printed tent card is the category staple — the product every hospitality client orders regularly for seasonal specials, event promotions, and ongoing venue messaging.
Double-sided printing allows different messages on each face — promotions on one side, the brand's core menu or services on the other. The tent card's position means both faces are visible to different people at the table simultaneously, depending on their seating position.
Because tent cards are printed on card rather than held in a reusable holder, they are updated regularly — which makes them a repeat-order product for suppliers with established hospitality venue relationships.
Custom Printed Tent Cards can be customized based on your brief, including material options such as 350–400gsm artboard, size options including A6 (105×148mm folded), DL (99×210mm folded), A5 (148×210mm folded), branding methods such as Full-colour CMYK both sides. This gives businesses the flexibility to match the product to their brand style, campaign needs, or customer use case.
Branding options can be adjusted based on the artwork, target price point, and intended use. Our team can help review the best production method for the product so the final result is practical, consistent, and suitable for your market.
Packaging can also be planned around the sales channel, whether the products are for venue use, retail, promotional distribution, hospitality kits, or branded gift packs.
