Festival wristbands are high-quality, custom-designed fabric admission wristbands used at a wide variety of events for access control, age verification, authorization, re-entry control, and as carriers for RFID chips (e.g., for cashless payment).

Our Oeko-Tex® Standard 100 certified festival wristbands are extremely popular worldwide in VIP areas and at all kinds of events, including music festivals, open-air concerts, sporting events, theme parks, hotels, resorts, trade fairs, conventions, nightclubs, and many more. Combined with our patented closures, they offer a particularly secure access control solution.

We offer a range of festival wristbands, from high-quality woven (Premium) to more economical printed (Economy) options.

Woven festival wristbands are the highest-quality admission bands available and—thanks to our attached closures—the most secure. Instead of printing on a base material, these bands are created on highly specialized looms that weave together threads or yarns of various colors to form your custom design. Compared to printed wristbands, woven wristbands offer superior color intensity.

Printed festival wristbands are the more cost-effective option and work well for designs featuring color gradients; however, they offer lower overall quality and do not feel as premium as woven bands. Printed wristbands paired with our “Economy” closure are suitable for events where security or the risk of tampering is less of a concern.

We supply the festival wristbands with the closures already threaded, packaged in standard lots of 50.

At Heliotextil, we also design and supply custom RFID festival wristbands that enhance the visitor experience and optimize event flow. Compared to printed wristbands, woven wristbands have a higher color intensity.

An RFID system consists of a transponder (a custom-printed RFID chip) pre-applied to the textile festival wristband, containing a unique identifier, and a reader that reads this identifier via a short-range radio signal.

Our RFID wristbands combine contactless technology, sustainable materials, and precise data encoding to enable cashless payments and improve access and re-entry control at events and festivals worldwide.

Heliotextil’s client base includes organizers of music festivals, open-air events, concerts, sporting events, congresses, conventions, and corporate events across the UK and Europe. In addition, our products are trusted by providers of RFID and cashless payment systems, companies in the apparel industry, and advertising and promotion agencies.
