The earlier the better. More lead time opens up more exhibit options and protects time for design, production, approvals, logistics, and show deadlines. Custom exhibits, larger island booths, double-deck exhibits, and international programs benefit most from an early start. Use the timeline above with your show date, or share your details and we'll give you a specific recommendation.

For a custom-built exhibit, plan from roughly $100 per square foot of built area. The biggest factor is how much of your footprint is structure: a backwall with two counters is a very different number from a full environment in the same space. Rental exhibits come in below that figure, double-deck and heavy technical builds above it. Once we see your space and goals, it becomes a firm price with no surprise charges later.

Yes. Absolute Exhibits supports trade shows across the U.S. with exhibit design, fabrication, project management, logistics, installation, and dismantle. We can help with rental exhibits, custom trade show booths, and multi-show exhibit programs that need consistent branding across different venues.

We do. With production in Europe alongside our U.S. facilities, we help U.S. companies exhibit at European trade fairs and manage the differences from U.S. shows, including stand design expectations, venue rules, regional labor models, logistics, and installation. Tell us where you're headed and we'll walk you through what to expect.

Yes. We offer both rental and custom trade show exhibits. Rental exhibits are useful when you need flexibility across different booth sizes or show schedules. Custom exhibits are better when your team needs a branded, ownable environment designed for long-term use and a specific visitor experience.

We can, where show and venue rules allow them. Double-deck booths require additional planning because they may involve engineering, approvals, fire safety rules, structural requirements, and venue-specific regulations. If you are considering a double deck, it is best to start early.

We do. You get exhibit design and 3D renderings so your team can review the booth concept before production. Renderings help show how the booth will support branding, product displays, demos, meeting areas, traffic flow, and the overall trade show experience.

A proposal can include booth design, 3D renderings, fabrication, graphics, project management, freight coordination, installation, dismantle, and storage, depending on the project scope. The goal is to give your team a clear understanding of the exhibit concept, timeline, deliverables, and costs before moving forward.

To prepare a proposal, we usually need the show name, booth size, booth type, venue, show dates, budget range, design goals, brand guidelines, product display needs, demo requirements, meeting room needs, storage needs, and any existing exhibit assets. Floor plans, exhibitor manuals, and past booth photos are also helpful. You don't need everything to start, send what you have and we'll take it from there. From there you'll work with our architects to shape the design, and you'll get a 3D rendering and a firm all-in price at no cost.
