Custom Event Cards & Badges for Conferences, Exhibitions, Seminars & Events

IDGen provides custom printed event cards and badges for conferences, seminars, exhibitions, workshops, corporate events, institutional programmes, trade shows, cultural events, sports events and other organized gatherings.

Event cards can be personalized with participant information, event branding, organization logos, photographs, QR codes, barcodes, categories and other required information. Depending on the event format, the card can be supplied with the appropriate lanyard and hook configuration, including one-hook or two-hook arrangements.

An event card can identify participants, delegates, speakers, organizers, staff, volunteers, exhibitors, sponsors, VIP guests, media representatives and visitors — designed according to the event's branding and identification requirements.

By Event Type

Event Card Types

IDGen can produce event identification cards for different event categories.

Conference Cards

Business, industry, academic and professional conferences — Conference Card + Lanyard + Hook.

Exhibition & Trade Show Badges

Different designs for Visitor, Exhibitor, Organizer, Speaker and VIP categories.

Corporate Event Cards

Corporate meetings, annual events, dealer meets and product launches, branded to the event.

School & Institutional Events

Annual functions, cultural programmes, sports events and institutional conferences.

Sports Event Cards

Tournaments, competitions, marathons and institutional sporting events.

Configuration

Event Card + Lanyard + Hook

Event cards are commonly designed as a wearable identification system — unlike standard employee or student ID cards, event badges may use different attachment configurations depending on the card format and lanyard design.

One-Hook Configuration

Event Card + One Hook + Lanyard — suitable where the card has a single attachment point.

Two-Hook Configuration

Event Card + Two Hooks + Lanyard — used where the event card requires attachment at two points.

Where ultrasonic sealing is required, the sealing arrangement corresponds to the attachment configuration: one-hook setups use one ultrasonic sealing point, two-hook setups use two.

Event Card Categories

Large events may require different identification categories, each with its own design, colour treatment or text.

Event Card vs Student or Employee ID Card
