Questions
Trade show planning questions
How early should I book a booth builder?
For a custom booth, 20 weeks or more before the show gives you the widest choice. Rentals turn around faster, but builders fill up early for the big shows.
Are these show dates confirmed?
Each date comes from the show's official website, checked on 26 October 2026. Confirm move-in and dismantle times in your exhibitor manual.
Can I get quotes for a show that is not listed?
Yes. Name any show or venue in your brief and we match builders who work it.
What does a builder need from me to quote?
Your booth size and number, the show, a budget range and what you want on the stand. A floor plan or a photo you like helps.
