Solopress X Lazydays Festival 2025: effective event print

Lazydays Blog Header

As festival season hits its stride, Southend’s own Lazydays Festival returns to Priory Park this July. The weekend promises live music, family fun and summer celebration. With a vibrant, accessible atmosphere and something for all ages, it’s fast becoming a fixture of the Southend calendar. This year, Solopress is proud to support the event with a wide range of printed materials designed and produced right here in Southend-on-Sea. With festival season in full swing, it’s also the perfect moment to introduce two new additions to our outdoor event print range: branded Plastic Cups and an enhanced offering of Tyvek® Wristbands.

A legendary Lazydays line up

Now in its third year, the festival offers a relaxed but lively experience across three days from Friday 25 to Sunday 27 July. The weekend kicks off with performances from Katy B, MistaJam and Judge Jules, with a headline set from Example on Friday night. Saturday and Sunday feature an eclectic mix of indie, soul and alternative performers. Acts include Embrace, Peter Doherty, The Coral, Lightning Seeds, Badly Drawn Boy, Pip Blom and The Milk. The festival closes on Sunday with sets from Norman Jay MBE, Mica Millar, Kitti, Maverick Sabre and Soul II Soul. With multiple stages and entertainment running throughout each day, there’s plenty of opportunity to take in the music, food and atmosphere.

Alongside the headline acts, the weekend features an expanded Kids’ Area, local food and drink vendors, community stalls, street entertainment, a roller disco and even a dog show. It’s a friendly, welcoming event that reflects the spirit of summer on the Essex coast.

Lazydays Wristband

If you’re organising your own event, we’ve updated our Wristbands range to combine security with standout design. Printed in full colour on tear-resistant, water-resistant Tyvek®, these Wristbands feature a tamper-evident adhesive closure. This ensures they’re non-transferable, helping to manage entry and reduce the risk of unauthorised access.

Solopress also offers customisable fabric options. These are available in woven or sublimation-printed finishes, with a choice of adjustable plastic locks or secure metal fasteners. Ideal for weekend passes, VIP access or staff ID, they’re a great fit for festivals, parties and multi-day events.

Print that sets the scene

Solopress is also providing a mix of signage, handouts and event essentials to help bring the festival site together.

Large-format Mesh PVC Banners are ideal for open-air settings, thanks to their wind-permeable 290gsm construction. Hemmed and eyeletted, they’re designed for durability and visibility across fences, scaffolding or railings.

Corex Boards, printed on rigid fluted plastic, provide lightweight, weatherproof signage for wayfinding or branding. They’re perfect for use at outdoor venues where simple, high-impact messaging is key.

On the ground, A5 Flyers will help promote the festival and keep attendees informed. Printed double-sided on 170gsm stock, they’re compact, portable and ideal for quick handouts, goody bags or counters.

Posters, Leaflet Holders, Lanyards and branded Deckchairs complete the line-up offering both functional value and strong branding opportunities throughout the weekend.
