A portable powerhouse

Announce your presence during trade shows, conferences, events, farmers markets, real estate showings and more with custom retractable banners. With their easy assembly and included carrying case, your seasonal event setup (and take down) will take just minutes. Use your custom banner stand to promote special offers, advertise new products or share a QR code – whatever message you’d like.

Easy to set up & reuse

Our roll-up, retractable banners come preassembled with everything you need – cassette, banner and case – in an assortment of options for your needs and budget. Durable and ready for repeated and long-term indoor use, these banner stands are a great way to get your brand noticed in busy settings. Want to add extra durability and a sleek finish? Upgrade to our protective glossy coating to guard against scuffs and enhance the vibrancy of your design (available with our 24" x 62" and 33" x 81" vinyl standard cassette). When assembling, use both hands to pull up from the center of your banner stand to avoid damage. And when you’re done, simply roll down your banner, pop it in its case and store it for your next event.

Intuitive design process

To start creating your retractable banner, upload your design or explore our gallery of fully customizable design templates, including industry- and event-specific options. (Have a design ready to go? Use our design upload option.) Once you’ve found a design, make it yours by adding your custom details and choosing the options that work best for your retractable banner. Then we’ll take care of the rest, professionally printing and shipping your order. Your custom creation will arrive looking great and ready to get noticed.

Nice quality but the print was scratch at one place.

Great purchase!

We purchased one of these for our high school's Open House, and it looks great. The image is clear, it is taller than I even expected and it comes in a nice bag to store it. Would recommend.

Good

Good as described

Missing a gradient on the banner

Oct 1, 2025 | JusCa2r _. | Verified Buyer
The gradient on my banner didn’t print where the text was, and some details are missing. I was expecting higher print quality. I understand that printing gradients can be more difficult, but I still expected to see some of the colors. Instead, nothing showed up on the banner.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
We appreciate your review of the business cards and regret hearing that the gradient was missing from the design. We understand how disappointing this may be, and we want to assure you that we are committed to making this right. As such, we will be reaching out to you in email in order to better assist you. We look forward to working with you.

Great graphics but almost impossible to put together.

Oct 1, 2025 | Bruce G. | Verified Buyer
The hole for the rod does not line up properly so almost impossible to assemble.
Response from Vistaprint Customer Care Team:
Thank you for your feedback on your recent order of Retractable Banners. We’re very sorry to hear that you had difficulty putting it together due to the misaligned hole for the rod. We completely understand how frustrating this must have been, especially when you were excited to display your design. To help with assembly and avoid damage, here are a few tips that may be useful: -Don’t try to pull the banner above the height of the pole, as this may damage the retracting mechanism. -Be careful with the edges and ensure they’re not caught in the cassette, which could fray or scratch the design. -When connecting the pole pieces for the standard cassette, locate the round part inside the hole and insert the pole into it to make sure the banner stands straight. We truly appreciate your patience and understanding, and we’ll make sure your experience is shared with our team, so we can improve.

Frequently asked questions

Follow these 4 easy steps to get set up:

1. Case: Open your carrying case and remove the cassette and pole.

2. Cassette: Set your cassette on the ground. Turn the stabilizing foot/feet perpendicular to the cassette.

3. Pole: Connect the pole pieces and then insert into the hole in the cassette.

4: Banner: Using both hands, pull the top of the banner up from the cassette and attach it to the top of the pole.

Here are a few other tips to know before you get started:

  • Don’t try to pull the banner above the height of the pole. Doing so may damage the retracting mechanism.

  • Be careful with the edges and make sure they’re not caught up in the cassette, which could fray or scratch your design.

  • When connecting the pole pieces for the standard cassette, find the round part inside the hole and stick the pole into it to make sure the banner stands straight.

The biggest difference between these banners is the material used and the display options.

Retractable Banners: This style includes a vinyl and polyester fabric banner that comes preassembled with a stand and case. Multiple cassettes and sizes available.

Mesh Banners: Made of woven polyester mesh, these banners are best for outdoor and windy conditions, with included grommets and reinforced edges.

Fabric Banners: Made of 100% recyclable, scratch-resistant polyester with included grommets. Great for indoor and outdoor use.

Vinyl Banners: Our most popular banner. Your choice of indoor (13 oz.) or outdoor (14 oz.) vinyl, both of which are fade- and water-resistant.

Yes.

We offer 2 banner materials: Our vinyl material is .31 mm thick and our polyester fabric is .37 mm.

When you're setting up standard or premium roll-up styles, make sure to turn the bottom foot/feet perpendicular to the stand. The premium plus cassette has a hidden base for a modern and clean look.

We do not recommend our retractable banners for outdoor use. See our variety of outdoor signage here.

Follow these tips to make sure your design is clear, legible and effective:

  • Contrast your background and text colors to ensure clear readability

  • Focus on one main message that people can quickly understand

  • Keep your safety margins in mind as you design. (See our Specs & Templates tab for more details.)

If you're building out your booth for a trade show or expo, consider matching tablecloths, vinyl banners, foam board signs or our NEW tension fabric displays. Looking for even more inspiration? Check out our Guide to Trade Shows, Markets & Events.

This coating option adds a scratch-resistant, glossy finish that helps protect against scuffs while making your design look more vivid. You can select this option at checkout with our 24" x 62" and 33" x 81" vinyl standard cassette.
