Event Ticket Printing Specifications

Stock, Sizing & Finish Options

All event tickets from Reputable Red Panda are printed on thick 14pt or 16pt card stock that holds up in pockets, at door checks, and through tear-off validation. Our standard ticket size is 2″ x 5.5″, the industry-standard format that fits wallets and cash boxes alike. We also offer compact 2″ x 4″ tickets for raffles and smaller-format events.

Every ticket is printed in full CMYK colour on both sides, giving you complete design freedom. Add your event branding, sponsor logos, venue maps, or terms and conditions on the back without sacrificing the front design. Matte, gloss, and uncoated finishes are available depending on how you want the ticket to feel in hand. Gloss creates a polished, high-end look. Matte reduces glare under stage and venue lighting. Uncoated stock accepts handwritten notes and stamp marks cleanly.

Why Custom Event Tickets Still Matter in a Digital World

Printed event tickets do something a QR code on a phone screen cannot — they create a physical connection between your attendee and your brand. A well-designed ticket becomes a keepsake. Concertgoers pin them to corkboards. Gala attendees tuck them into scrapbooks. Raffle participants hold them tight during the draw. That tangible presence reinforces your event long after the doors close.

Custom tickets also solve practical problems that digital-only solutions struggle with. Not every venue has reliable Wi-Fi. Not every attendee carries a charged phone. Printed tickets with sequential numbering give your door staff a fast, foolproof way to validate entry without any technology dependency. For events that sell alcohol or have age-restricted areas, tear-off stubs provide a simple secondary verification system.

Since 2018, Reputable Red Panda has printed event tickets for Calgary fundraisers, concerts, trade shows, sporting events, and community festivals. We understand the stakes — your tickets are often the first physical touchpoint an attendee has with your event, and they need to look and feel like the experience you are selling.

Numbering, Perforation & Security Features

Sequential numbering is included on every event ticket order at no additional charge. Each ticket receives a unique number printed in a consistent position, making inventory tracking, door counts, and post-event reconciliation straightforward. Choose from standard black numbering or colour-matched numbering that integrates with your design.

Perforation is where functional meets professional. Our precision perforation creates a clean tear line between the main ticket and the stub. Attendees keep one half, your door staff keeps the other. The tear is smooth and consistent across the entire run — no jagged edges, no partial tears, no tickets that rip in the wrong spot. We offer single perforation (one stub) and double perforation (two stubs) for events that require multiple check-in points.

For high-value events, we provide additional security features. Holographic foil strips make counterfeiting impractical. Variable data printing lets you embed unique codes on each ticket. Combined with sequential numbering, these features give you a layered verification system that protects your ticket revenue and keeps unauthorized entries out.

Fast Turnaround for Calgary Events

Event timelines are unforgiving. Venue deposits, performer contracts, marketing deadlines — and somewhere in that timeline, you need physical tickets in hand. Reputable Red Panda offers standard 3-5 business day turnaround on event ticket orders, with rush production available for 1-2 business day delivery when your timeline gets tight. We have met same-week deadlines for Calgary event organizers more times than we can count, and we do it without cutting corners on print quality or numbering accuracy.

Finish Options That Match Your Event

Your event has a personality, and your tickets should reflect it. Gloss lamination delivers bold, saturated colours that pop under any lighting — ideal for concerts, nightlife events, and festivals. Matte lamination creates a refined, sophisticated feel suited to galas, corporate functions, and charity dinners. Uncoated stock works best for raffle tickets and any situation where attendees or staff need to write on the ticket surface. Every finish option is available across all ticket sizes and stock weights.

Low Minimums, High Volume — We Print Both

Some Calgary print shops set high minimums that price out smaller events. Reputable Red Panda prints event tickets starting at just 100 units, making professional-quality tickets accessible for community raffles, school fundraisers, and intimate gatherings. Running a large-scale festival or multi-day conference? We handle runs of 10,000+ tickets with the same attention to numbering accuracy, perforation quality, and colour consistency. Volume pricing applies automatically on larger orders, so scaling up always makes financial sense.

Our flyers and postcards are frequently ordered alongside event tickets to build a complete promotional package. Pair your admission tickets with promotional flyers for street-team distribution, or send postcards as VIP invitations that drive early ticket sales.

What numbering options are available on custom event tickets?

Every event ticket order includes sequential numbering at no extra cost. Numbers are printed in a consistent position across the full run, starting from any number you specify. We offer standard black numbering and colour-matched numbering that blends with your ticket design. Duplicate numbering for two-part tickets (stub + main) is also available so both halves carry the same identifier.

What types of perforation can I choose for my tickets?

We offer single perforation and double perforation. Single perforation creates one tear-off stub — the standard setup for door entry where staff retains one half. Double perforation adds a second stub for events with multiple check-in points, drink tickets, or coat-check systems. The perforation line is precision-cut so tickets tear cleanly every time without ripping into the printed area.

What ticket sizes does Reputable Red Panda print?

Our standard event ticket is 2″ x 5.5″, which is the most widely used size for admission and concert tickets. We also print 2″ x 4″ tickets, popular for raffle draws, drink tickets, and compact event formats. Custom sizes are available on request for specialty events or unique venue requirements.

What security features prevent ticket counterfeiting?

We offer several layers of security. Sequential numbering is the baseline, making it easy to spot duplicates at the door. Holographic foil strips add a visual and tactile element that is extremely difficult to reproduce on a home printer. Variable data printing embeds unique alphanumeric codes on each ticket for barcode or manual verification. These features can be combined for high-value events where revenue protection is critical.

Can I get a rush order for event tickets?

Yes. Standard turnaround is 3-5 business days, and rush production is available for 1-2 business day completion. If your event is days away and you need tickets immediately, contact Reputable Red Panda directly at (403) 909-5787 and we will work to meet your deadline. Rush orders maintain the same print quality, numbering accuracy, and perforation standards as standard orders.

Do I need to provide a print-ready design, or can you design my tickets?

Both options work. If you have a print-ready file in PDF, AI, or PSD format with 300 DPI resolution and proper bleed, we will move straight to production. If you need design assistance, our team can create a custom ticket layout based on your event branding, colours, and content requirements. Many Calgary event organizers send us rough concepts and we turn them into print-ready artwork.
