Music festivals aren’t just about the music, it’s about the moment and making memories. Great merch is how those memories live on long after the final set. Whether you’re a band or solo artist, building your own merch collection is more than a creative outlet; it’s a powerful way to promote your brand and boost your income. With Merchr, you can launch a custom collection in minutes no minimum orders, no fees and no stock hassles.
Today’s fans want merch that is more than just a logo on a shirt; they want something exciting and creative. It needs to be wearable, comfortable, and most importantly, something they’re excited to show off.
So, how do you build a collection that turns heads and drives sales?
Before you start designing your products, ensure you do some research and understand your audience. Are your buyers Gen Z fans, wanting bold, out-there merch? What sort of products would they be most interested in purchasing?
Look at what’s working for other bands, artists, and festivals. What styles are fans wearing on social media? What items are selling out first? When your designs align with your audience’s vibe, they’re far more likely to purchase.
Think practically and creatively. People want merch that’s lightweight, breathable, and fun, like tees, tanks, tote bags and hats. Consider what people will wear at the festival and beyond.
When it comes to the design:
With Merchr, you can offer your designs on as many product colours as you like. Want to add a personal touch? Enable customisable text, where fans can choose their own name, colours, or phrases.
With Merchr, you control your pricing, which means you control your profit. Offer a variety of items at different price points to suit different budgets. For example:
You can even run limited drops or bundle deals to drive urgency and boost sales.
It’s important you advertise your merchandise collection online before the events to create awareness and excitement for your products. Start promoting early with:
