How much do exhibition stands cost?
Several factors will influence the cost of your exhibition stand:
- Size of the space you have booked
- Whether you anticipate your event to be a one-off exhibition or whether you need an exhibition stand you can reuse and reconfigure multiple times for different venues

How do I attract customers to my booth?
Think about the best exhibition booths you’ve visited – what made them stand out to you? Creating a stand that is centred around your customers’ needs is key. Some visitors will be familiar to your brand, others not so.
- Always use clear, simple graphics that are designed with the target audience in mind and resonate with them
- Ask the question of what extra value does your stand bring to visitors – for example, a guest speaker giving free advice to your prospective customers
- Make it clear what your business offers to your customers
- Ensure you have good marketing and awareness before the exhibition
- Give products or existing customers a reason to visit
- People attract people! – generate interest by engaging customers to attract more
- Offer freebies – a free coffee, snacks, giveaways, games to play and competitions to enter
- Avoid having too much copy, fussy graphics and multiple messages as they do not lure people onto a stand to read further and make it hard work to understand what you offer and what’s in it for them immediately
- Avoid having too many staff members milling around and talking amongst themselves as this will also put off people from visiting your stand – ensure the atmosphere is friendly and welcoming at all times!
