Shell scheme costs are usually quoted per square meter by the venue. Custom turnkey stands include design, production, installation, and dismantling — usually the easier option for international exhibitors.

Book 4–6 weeks before the show to secure preferred candidates. A full-service booth partner can usually bundle staffing with stand design.
Can I rent furniture, AV equipment, or TVs for my booth at NATIONAL RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION?
Yes — furniture, AV equipment, and display screens (including large TVs and LED walls) are commonly rented per show. You can order directly from the venue's approved vendor list, or through your booth design company which will typically handle furniture, counters, lighting, TV / monitors, and Wi-Fi as part of the turnkey package. Order early: premium pieces (LED walls, large TVs) run out for bigger editions.
How much does a hanging sign cost at NATIONAL RESTAURANT ASSOCIATION?
A hanging sign (or banner) for a trade show stand typically includes three cost components: production of the sign, rigging and hanging fees (often charged by the venue), and transportation. Pricing varies with size, materials (fabric vs rigid), and venue-specific rigging policies. Get a quote from your booth supplier — they handle production + rigging coordination as a single line item, so you avoid surprise venue fees.
