Two to four weeks ahead is comfortable for most New York events — it gives us time to finalize your art and order garments in the sizes and colors you want. That said, we keep gear staged and have turned events around in under a week, so if your date is soon, ask anyway.
What the lead time buys you in New York
- Art dialed in — we proof your design and set up screens or transfers ahead of time.
- The right garments — specific blanks, colors, and a full size curve ordered with cushion.
- Crew & date locked — popular New York weekends (spring and fall especially) fill first.
- A calm setup — more runway means fewer rush fees and surprises.
For rush New York events, simple art and standard blanks are what make a fast turnaround possible. If you're planning a Javits conventions or a Javits Center booth months out, even better — we'll hold the date. Either way, the first step is the same: tell us your date and headcount and we'll confirm availability within 24 hours.
