# Exhibit fabrication in Las Vegas

A custom exhibit is designed for your brand, built in a shop, shipped in crates, and installed on the show floor. Las Vegas shops do this every week of the year.

## From sketch to show floor

- Brief: booth size, goals, products, meeting space, storage, and budget.
- Design: renderings, then construction drawings and graphic templates.
- Build: CNC routing, carpentry, metal frames, paint, lighting, and graphics.
- Pre-staging: a test assembly in the shop so problems are found before move-in.
- Ship, install, dismantle, and return to storage or recycle.

## Show-floor rules that shape the design

Every show publishes height limits, line-of-sight rules for inline booths, and rules for island and peninsula booths. Hanging signs need show approval and are hung by the show's rigging contractor. Multi-level and covered booths often need plan review by the fire marshal. Read the exhibitor manual before design starts, not after.

## Custom versus rental

Custom builds suit exhibitors who show often with the same footprint and want a distinct look. Rentals suit first-time exhibitors, one-off shows, and companies who do not want storage costs. Hybrid booths mix a rental structure with custom counters and graphics.

## What to ask a shop

- Will you pre-stage the booth before it ships?
- Who files exhibitor-appointed contractor (EAC) paperwork?
- How do you package graphics and finishes for desert heat in transit?
- What does storage cost per month after the show?

## Questions

### Do I have to use the show's contractor to install my booth?

Not always. Many shows let you hire an exhibitor-appointed contractor if you file the form by the deadline. The rules are in the exhibitor manual.

### What is pre-staging?

A full test assembly in the fabricator's shop. It catches missing parts and fit problems before you pay show labor rates.
