Booth Construction Regulations and Diagrams Island Booths



ISLAND BOOTH: A minimum of four standard booths (20’ x 20’ / 6 meters x 6 meters or larger), exposed to aisles on all four sides.

  • Maximum height of 16’ (4.88m), or higher with Show Management approval. Booth presence (including signs/graphics) can be 23’ (7.0104m) with Show Management pre-approval. Request to exceed 16’ must be submitted by June 9, 2023 via the Mandatory Booth Rendering Submission Form.
  • Booth structures such as towers and columns which exceed 12 feet (3.66M) in height (including hanging signs) or are two-story exhibits (any height) regardless of whether people will occupy the area or not will require engineering certification verifying the structural integrity of the exhibit. Acceptable certification is in the form of a certified structural engineer’s stamp or seal directly on a set of blueprints for the exhibit.
  • If you have a hanging sign, there must be at least a 3' clearance from the highest point of the booth properties to the bottom of the sign and your entire booth presence cannot exceed 23’. Hanging sign must be set back 10’ from the adjacent booth. Total height to top of sign cannot be higher than 23’. All renderings for Island booths with hanging signs must be submitted by June 9, 2023 via the Mandatory Hanging Sign Rendering Submission Form

    Regardless as to where the highest point is located within the booth, there must be a 3’ clearance between the tallest structure in the booth to the bottom of the hanging sign.

  • The length of any solid perimeter wall, structure, video wall, or combination of elements exceeding 8’ in height (2.4384m) from the ground located within 3’ from any adjoining aisle is limited to half the length (or width) of your contracted space.
  • Walls must be finished on both sides so as not to be unsightly to neighboring exhibitors.
  • Exhibitors may use Plexiglas or similar see-through material to create a wall that will allow for a line of sight from one booth to the next.
  • If you have any type of interactive display, you must have a 3’ clearance from the aisle(s) to allow for crowds.
  • If the facility is not carpeted, all booths must be carpeted entirely due to safety and aesthetic reasons.
  • All exhibitors must bring a copy of their US Engineer-stamped plans on-site for the Fire Marshal. The Fire Marshal reserves the right to deny booth construction without these plans.
SHOW MANAGEMENT MUST APPROVE ALL ISLAND BOOTHS.
PLEASE SUBMIT YOUR DRAWINGS BY JUNE 9, 2023.
