Why Event Giveaways Are Marketing Gold

Think about the last event you attended. You probably left with a tote bag full of branded goodies – maybe a pen, some sweets, a stress ball, or even a handy power bank. Every time they’re used, that brand gets a little reminder in front of someone’s eyes. That’s the magic of promotional merchandise, low-cost items that deliver long-term brand awareness.

We make that process easy, fun, and effective. We’re based in the UK but ship internationally, and our free design service means you’ll get to see a mockup of your chosen giveaways before you place an order. That way, we can perfect it together and make sure your logo looks incredible on your merchandise.

Branded Lanyards & Staff Name Badges

If your team is attending, make sure they look the part. Branded lanyards and name badges don’t just keep staff looking professional, they also make them instantly recognisable to attendees.

Our lanyards come in cotton, eco-friendly, and antibacterial finishes, while badges can be sleek metal, simple clip-on, or colourful plastic. Either way, they’re practical, affordable, and always a safe bet for conferences.

Few things attract attention like food. Offering branded sweets, chocolates, or bottled drinks gives people a tasty reminder of your brand.

FAQs about event merchandise & giveaways

Why should I invest in event giveaways?

Event giveaways are one of the most cost-effective ways to promote your brand. Not only do they grab attention at busy events, but they also create long-lasting brand impressions when people continue to use your branded pens, mugs, or tote bags long after the event has ended.

How do I know which products will work best for my event?

It depends on your audience and your budget. For corporate events, practical items like notebooks and mugs work brilliantly. For festivals or family-friendly events, wristbands, balloons, and plush toys are always popular. If you’re unsure, we can advise you and even create a free mockup so you can see how your branding will look on different items.

Do you ship internationally?

We do. While we’re proudly UK-based, we regularly ship promotional merchandise worldwide. Whether your event is in London, Paris, New York, or Dubai, we’ll make sure your branded giveaways arrive on time.

Are eco-friendly promotional products available?

Definitely. We stock a wide range of sustainable options such as reusable tote bags, bamboo pens, recycled notebooks, and biodegradable balloons. Choosing eco-friendly merchandise is a great way to showcase your commitment to sustainability.

How many items should I order for my event?

It depends on the scale of your event and how you plan to distribute the items. As a rule of thumb, order enough for at least 70–80% of expected attendees. We can also advise you based on your event size and budget.

What are the best cheap giveaways for trade shows?

If you’re working with a tighter budget, popular low-cost giveaways include branded pens, tote bags, lanyards, silicone wristbands, and fridge magnets. These items are affordable in bulk, easy to customise, and useful enough that attendees will keep them long after the event.

What giveaways work best for outdoor events?

Outdoor events can be unpredictable – especially in the UK! That’s why branded gazebos, banners, and deck chairs work brilliantly for visibility. For attendees, sunglasses, water bottles, and reusable tote bags are practical and on-theme.

What are the best giveaways for tech or B2B events?

For a business or tech audience, practical desk-friendly items work best. Think USB sticks, wireless chargers, branded mugs, notebooks, and quality pens. These are items that professionals will use day-to-day, giving your brand repeated exposure.

What are the most popular types of promotional merchandise?

Our best-sellers include branded lanyards, silicone wristbands, stress balls, tote bags, sweets, and pens. Tech giveaways like power banks and wireless chargers are also becoming increasingly popular for making a premium impression.

Can I see what my design will look like before I order?

Yes! That’s one of our unique perks. We offer a free design service where you’ll receive a mockup of your chosen products with your logo. You can tweak the design with us until it’s perfect, so you can order with confidence.

What’s the turnaround time for branded merchandise?

This depends on the product and the quantity, but many of our items have quick turnaround options available. If you’re working to a tight deadline, just let us know – we’ll always do our best to meet your schedule.

Can branded giveaways be used for virtual events?

Yes! Many of our clients send smaller giveaways like sweets, pens, or magnets directly to attendees’ homes before or after online events. It’s a thoughtful way to connect with participants and keep your brand memorable, even when the event isn’t in person.

Can you print my logo in full colour?

Yes. We offer a wide variety of printing methods, from simple single-colour prints to ultra-HD full-colour finishes. Whatever your brand colours or style, we’ll make sure your logo looks sharp and professional.

What are the best premium corporate gifts for events?

For making a big impression on VIP clients or running prize draws, tech gifts are always a winner. Wireless chargers, Bluetooth speakers, power banks, and branded headphones are all premium options that create long-term brand exposure and a sense of value.

What items are best for creating a goodie bag?

Goodie bags are a fantastic way to give attendees a mix of fun and practical items. Popular choices include a notebook, branded pen, stress ball, sweets, and a tote bag to hold it all. You can also add a higher-value item, like a mug or travel cup, to make your bag stand out.

Are edible giveaways like sweets and chocolates effective?

Absolutely! Edible giveaways are always a hit because they offer an instant treat and leave people with a positive memory of your brand. Branded mint tins, chocolate bars, and snack tubes are among the most popular options.
