Your brief

What you send, in three steps

01
Your show
Pick your show from the list and its venue and dates fill in, or type the convention center and your dates.
02
Your booth size
From 10 × 10 to a large island, or choose Not sure and builders recommend one.
03
Where to send quotes

What you get back

What an itemised booth quote should show

Ask every builder to price the same lines, so you can compare them side by side. Floor space, drayage and power are ordered from the show, not the builder.

Line	What it covers
Design and 3D renders	Concept, revisions and the renders you approve before anything is built.
Build or rental	Fabrication of the booth you own, or the rental package for this show.
Graphics	Printed and fabric graphics, and who supplies the artwork.
Shipping	Freight to the show and back, and to the advance warehouse if used.
Install and dismantle	The crew at the venue, or supervision of the show's labor.
Storage	Between shows, for a booth you own, priced per month.

Questions

Common questions

Is it free to get booth quotes?

Yes. Exhibitors never pay Exhivo. Builders pay a commission on work they win through a brief.

How many builders will quote?

Up to 5, chosen from builders who list your booth size and work your venue or city. You can also pick builders yourself from the directory or a builder's profile.

Who sees my details?

Only the builders your brief is matched with. A brief goes to at most 5 builders and is never resold.

Is a brief the same as an RFP?

It covers the same ground in a shorter form: show, dates, size and what the booth must do. If your company needs a formal RFP, our free template has the sections builders need to quote like for like.

Do I have to book a builder?

No. Compare the quotes and choose one, or none.
