Lanyards For Winter Events

Lanyards For Winter Events

Christmas is nearly upon us, and the temperature has dropped, meaning that winter events are in full swing. Just because the mercury has dipped doesn’t mean that there is an end to organised activities, in fact, wintertime is packed with events that require the use of lanyards and other custom merchandise. Lanyards are a helpful addition to many winter activities with a multitude of uses that we will explore in more detail below.

Custom Lanyards and Merchandise 

With a season packed full of activities, many organisations will find that lanyards and other branded merchandise are perfect for winter. From lanyards printed with your business or event logo, wristbands, or tote bags, here at Absolute Lanyards we offer full customisation including colour scheme and logos. Some uses for lanyards and other bespoke merchandise during the winter months include:

  • Festive events
  • Winter Wonderlands
  • Markets
  • Pantomime and other shows
  • Schools
  • Winter activities

Custom Lanyards for Festive Events

Of course, winter in the UK includes Christmas, and an array of associated festive events. Such events include Santa’s grottos, Christmas light switch-on events, carol concerts, and festive train rides. For ticketed events a lanyard is the perfect accessory for comfortably holding and displaying a ticket. We have a range of fully customisable lanyards available; from standard polyester to full colour HD printed dye sublimation lanyards. All lanyards include standard clip options with upgrades available.

Winter Wonderlands

Snowy scenery and icescapes at winter wonderland type experiences draw huge crowds every year. Such events often include the opportunity to skate outdoors on a temporary ice rink, as well as pop-up fair grounds and other activities. Such activities are usually payable in addition to entry. Therefore, lanyards with a clear plastic wallet to hold tickets or custom silicone wristbands to denote entry time are ideal and can all be designed in an array of colours and print options to perfectly coordinate with the business.

Custom Merchandise for Winter Markets

Winter market

A growing trend in the UK is winter markets, often known as German markets. At these markets stall holders selling gifts, food, and drink are pitched in outdoor wooden stalls. For organisers and businesses trading at the markets custom lanyards and other merchandise are invaluable. Organisers will need to provide staff and traders access to essential facilities such as backstage areas and toilets, this can be done with an ID pass attached to a lanyard. Lanyards can be different colours for different types of people, customised with the organiser, market, and/or local authority logo; they can also be ready supplied with ID card holders that are available in a range of different sizes, as well as being either portrait or landscape in orientation. Custom merchandise could also be used by stall holders as part of a promotion, freebies, or for sale.

Bespoke Merchandise for Pantomimes 

Winter is the season for pantomimes, ‘Oh no it’s not’, ‘oh yes, it is’! In the world of panto there are a multitude of uses for both lanyards and custom merchandise. Performers and theatre staff will need access, meaning that lanyards and ID card holders are extremely useful, and can of course be customised for the season’s show. Patrons of pantomimes often like to purchase souvenirs from the day out. Customised lanyards, wristbands, or tote bags are great value when ordered in bulk and can be sold to alongside other memorabilia from the show. Whether you want to promote the theatre, or this year’s pantomime a blue Cinderella lanyard, green Peter Pan wristband, or tote bags inspired by Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs are sure to be popular choices.

Custom Merchandise for Schools

Schools are big users of lanyards, and the winter season is no exception. An increase in visitors into the school necessitates more simple lanyards with ‘visitor’ text and the school logo. The end of the autumn term with Christmas fast approaching is a popular time for school trips; and as always lanyards are an essential item. For trips lanyards and wristbands are popular choices and can be designed with the name of the school and emergency contact details. Find out more about how schools and colleges use wristbands here

Outdoor Winter Activities

Hiking in snow

The arrival of snow and ice drives most of us indoors, however, there is a buzzing market for outdoor winter activities. From winter survival camps and sledding experiences to those that want to summit the UK’s highest mountains in the snow there are plenty of extreme adventure activities available during the winter months, and some not so extreme such as winter glamping pods with roaring campfires and hot chocolate. All these winter activities have different requirements, but whether as an essential tool or available to purchase from the gift shop branded lanyards, wristbands and other custom merchandise are must have accessories.
