everything you need to print for a successful event


Whether you’re organizing a trade show booth, hosting a conference, planning a customer appreciation day, or hitting the links for a golf tournament, print materials play a key role in making your event polished, professional, and memorable.

At Leech Group, we work with businesses and organizations across Manitoba to create standout print pieces that bring events to life. Here’s your event print checklist to help you prepare:

1. Event Signage That Gets Noticed

First impressions start at the entrance. Every event—indoor or outdoor—needs clear, branded signage:

  • Welcome signs & branded backdrops
  • Retractable banners for booths or speaker areas
  • Directional signage to guide guests
  • Sponsorship displays and golf hole signs

2. Printed Materials for Your Booth or Table

Heading to a trade show or conference? Make your space work hard for you with:

  • Brochures, flyers & info sheets
  • Business cards & branded notepads
  • Tabletop signage or displays
  • QR code printouts linking to your website or digital portfolio

3. Custom Apparel & Giveaways

Swag still matters, and we can help you create branded giveaways that won’t get left behind:

  • Branded golf balls, tees, hats or towels for tournaments
  • Reusable bags, water bottles, or pens for conferences
  • Thank-you items for client appreciation days

We’ll help you choose the right products and take care of all the printing!

4. Name Tags, Badges & Credentials

Make networking easy at conferences or appreciation events with:

  • Branded name tags
  • Lanyard badges
  • Colour-coded credentials for different access levels, such as general admission, speakers, exhibitors, VIP guests, or sponsor-only areas

5. Menus, Itineraries & Programs

If you're serving food, organizing a golf tournament, or scheduling speakers:

  • Table menus & place cards
  • Golf scorecards & pairing sheets
  • Event programs with scheduling, speaker bios, or sponsor highlights

6. Post-Event Print to Keep the Momentum Going

Don’t let the connection stop there:

  • Thank-you cards for guests or sponsors
  • Follow-up mailers or postcards
