At AMI Graphics, we specialize in creating concession stand signs that perfectly matches your space, menu, and objectives. From eye-catching printed menu boards to stylishly wrapped carts, every element is crafted to look fantastic and perform exceptionally.

Concession Stand Signs That Fit Every Type of Setup

Printed Menu Boards

If your menu is consistent, a printed board is a straightforward and durable way to showcase it. These boards provide ample space for item descriptions, prices, and branding, all while maintaining a clean and professional appearance. Printed concession boards are a smart pick for creating a cohesive look at stadiums, arenas, and beachfront snack shacks.

Example: A lakeside snack stand in New Hampshire upgraded from hand-written chalkboards to printed menu boards from AMI Graphics. The new signs were not only easier to read and weather-resistant but also gave the stand a more polished look for summer visitors.

Interchangeable Boards

For food operations that frequently change their offerings or sponsors, interchangeable boards offer flexibility. With slide-in frames, magnetic panels, or snap frames, you can make quick updates without a complete redesign.

Example: A college athletic department utilizes magnetic menu boards in its basketball arena. During school events, the graphics showcase campus dining branding, and on concert nights, theyeasily swap in sponsor-branded panels in just a few minutes.

Looking for a way to keep your specials or prices fresh every day? Dry erase and chalk-style signs are perfect for that. They offer the flexibility you need while still looking professional, especially when you pair them with your printed branding and custom frames.

For instance, a local brewery teamed up with AMI Graphics to create dry erase boards beautifully framed with their logo and brand colors. This way, the staff could easily update drink specials throughout the night without sacrificing that polished branded look.

Now, let’s talk about cart and counter wraps. If you want your mobile concession carts or bar areas to really stand out, consider using adhesive wraps or panels. A wrapped surface can catch the eye of passersby from a distance and helps create a cohesive visual experience throughout the venue.

Take the “Heroes and Headliners” event by Live Nation, for example. AMI Graphics wrapped over a dozen bar fronts at the Florida Credit Union Amphitheater. The deep navy color and event graphics replaced the usual red tones of the venue, completely transforming the atmosphere in just a few days.

If your event setup is constantly on the move, portable and temporary solutions can be a lifesaver. Freestanding menu boards, vinyl banner wraps, and magnetic panels can be set up in a flash and reused at different locations.

A great example is the Tampa Bay Sun Football Club, Tampa’s first professional women’s soccer team. They utilized magnetic signage around their concession areas at their temporary home field. The graphics were super easy to install before games and just as simple to take down afterward, allowing the stadium to return to its regular school use.

Built for Your Environment

Every concession setup faces different challenges. Our team helps you choose the right materials to fit your space and conditions. Things to consider: 

• Weather-resistant aluminum, Dibond, and PVC for outdoor or high-humidity areas
• Full-color digital printing for clear, vibrant graphics that hold up over time
• Custom framing and hardware options for both permanent and portable displays
• Professional installation available nationwide

Example: A minor league ballpark in Vermont upgraded its concession stand signs with full-color printed boards and custom aluminum frames. The new setup stood up to outdoor conditions and matched the team’s branding throughout the stadium.
