Custom Printing for Fort Lauderdale, FL
Fort Lauderdale runs on the water. The city calls itself the Venice of America for its 165 miles of inland waterways, and it bills itself as the yachting capital of the world, with roughly 100 marinas and boatyards. Port Everglades moves close to 4 million cruise passengers a year, and FLL airport sits just south of downtown. With about 183,000 residents at the 2020 census, it is the biggest city in Broward and the county's business center.
That shapes what gets printed. Yacht crews, charter operators, marine service companies and boatyards along the New River and the 17th Street corridor need crew polos, hats and shirts that survive sun and salt. Hotels, bars and restaurants on Las Olas Boulevard and along the beach go through staff uniforms and menu posters. Corporate offices downtown, including AutoNation's headquarters, order embroidered apparel and branded gifts. Nova Southeastern and Broward College both have campuses in the city, and there are dozens of youth clubs, high school programs and neighborhood associations among the more than 60 official neighborhoods.
Arnold Prints is not in Fort Lauderdale. Our one shop is in Westlake, in western Palm Beach County, about 51 miles north. Screen printing on an M&R Cobra automatic press, multi-head embroidery, DTF, laser engraving and 54 inch wide format all happen in-house there. Fort Lauderdale orders ship UPS or FedEx to your marina, office or home, and pickup at the Westlake shop is available Monday through Friday, 10am to 3pm. We have 14+ years in business and 230+ five star Google reviews.

Printing for Fort Lauderdale Boat Shows, Parades and Businesses
The Fort Lauderdale International Boat Show is the big one. The 67th edition runs October 28 to November 1, 2026, spread across Bahia Mar, Las Olas Marina, Pier 66, the 17th Street Yacht Basin, the Broward County Convention Center and more. Exhibitors and marine brands need booth banners, retractable stands, crew shirts and stickers to hand out, and all of it has to be ready before the show opens.
In December the Seminole Hard Rock Winterfest Boat Parade stages on the New River near Stranahan House and the Broward Center for the Performing Arts, then runs 12 miles up the Intracoastal. Boat entries, sponsors and viewing parties want matching shirts and banners. The Riverwalk Arts and Entertainment District and Las Olas Boulevard keep restaurants and shops busy with signs and staff apparel year round, and the Fort Lauderdale International Film Festival has run every year since 1986. Neighborhood associations, youth clubs and school booster groups across the city fill in the rest of the calendar with team shirts, banners and yard signs.
