Custom Merch for Events in Phoenix, AZ
Merch Mob makes attendee and souvenir tees, staff, crew and security shirts, and volunteer shirts for events in Phoenix, AZ, at its shop in Montclair, CA, and ships them to Phoenix. Phoenix's 18-to-34 age group makes up 27% of residents, above the US rate of 23% (Census ACS, 2020-2024), so attendee merch should look like something worth wearing again, with the poster art front and center.
Phoenix by the numbers
Phoenix has 1,665,481 residents, up 3.6% since 2020 (Census estimates).
Maricopa County has 102 event promoters (performing arts, sports and similar events) with paid employees (Census County Business Patterns, 2023). That is 0.22 for every 10,000 residents, below the national figure of 0.27. 74% of them employ fewer than 10 people. The count is about where it was in 2018 (104).

What Phoenix's weather means for events
Midsummer in Phoenix is a hazard for outdoor events: July averages a high of 107°F, with roughly 173 days a year at 90°F or more, so staff need the lightest wicking shirt available, a cap, and a second shirt for long shifts. With December still averaging a high of 66°F, there is no true cool season here, so the most comfortable daytime events fall in the weeks around it, and the warmer months call for a heat plan. Nights are another matter: December lows average 45°F, so winter dates that run after dark need a long sleeve for staff, and a small run of hoodies will sell once the sun goes down, even though afternoons stay warm. Around 111 days a year reach 100°F or more, so midday outdoor shifts need shade, water and short rotations, plus a spare staff shirt per person for anything longer than half a day. Only about 7.2 inches of rain fall in a typical year, so a rainout is unlikely and the bigger risk is sun: shade the booth, keep boxed stock out of direct light, and give staff caps.
