Custom Merch for Events in San Jose, CA
Merch Mob makes attendee and souvenir tees, staff, crew and security shirts, and volunteer shirts for events in San Jose, CA, at its shop in Montclair, CA, and ships them to San Jose. Slightly more of San Jose is 18 to 34 than the country as a whole, 25% against 23% (Census ACS, 2020-2024), so plan for a mixed crowd: a soft tee in a full size range, plus one oversized style.
San Jose by the numbers
San Jose has 989,814 residents, 2.3% fewer than in 2020 (Census estimates).
Santa Clara County has 34 event promoters (performing arts, sports and similar events) with paid employees (Census County Business Patterns, 2023). That is 0.18 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 (35).
That counts promoters with a payroll; one-off events run by volunteers or venues are not in it.

What San Jose's weather means for events
Summer is mild in San Jose, where August peaks at an average high of 81°F, so even summer outdoor events need a hoodie at the booth for the evening and a long sleeve for staff. Tees carry the summer table for 6 months, May to October, and a long sleeve bridges the shoulder months on either side for staff and attendees. Rain comes in a season rather than all year: at least four months bring under half an inch, so cluster outdoor dates in the dry months and give anything in the wet months an indoor fallback. With roughly 13 inches of rain a year, rainouts are rare and sun is the bigger planning issue, so caps for staff and attendees belong in the order.
