How It Works
Common Mistakes to Avoid
Submitting artwork the week before the event
Exhibition print production for a full booth package takes 10–14 business days. Submitting artwork 5 days before GITEX is not possible to fulfil to quality. Always book a production slot when you register for the event.
Not accounting for venue rigging requirements
DWTC and ADNEC have strict rules on suspended element weights, rigging points, and early access for installation. Not coordinating with the venue rigging contractor in advance results in suspended banners not being installed.
Designing booth graphics at screen resolution
A 3m × 2.5m backdrop requires artwork at minimum 100dpi at final size (30cm × 25cm at 1000dpi is the same). At proper scale, artwork files should be 100–300MB for tension fabric prints.
Ordering only for the booth — forgetting handouts
Visitors remember brands that gave them something to take away. Coordinate booth graphics production with flyer, brochure, and promotional item orders to ensure consistent brand delivery across the whole exhibition presence.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does an exhibition booth build cost in Dubai?
Exhibition booth builds in Dubai typically start from AED 8,000–15,000 for a 9sqm shell scheme fit-out with graphics and lighting. Custom carpentry booths range from AED 20,000–80,000+ for 20–50sqm builds at major shows. Pricing depends on size, design complexity, and materials.
How long does exhibition booth build and installation take?
Design and approval takes 5–10 days. Fabrication takes 1–3 weeks. On-site build at the venue typically takes 1–3 days depending on booth size and complexity — scheduled during the venue's build-up period.
What trade shows do you build exhibition stands for?
We build for GITEX, INDEX, Arab Health, The Big 5, Cityscape, ADIPEC, DWTC, ADNEC, and all major UAE exhibition venues.
Do you handle booth breakdown and storage after the show?
Yes. We manage post-show dismantling and can store modular components for reuse at future exhibitions — reducing overall cost for exhibitors who attend multiple shows per year.
Seasonal Demand & Campaign Planning
📅 GITEX Technology Week (Oct)
The biggest tech exhibition in MENA — production slots for full booth packages are fully booked by August. Submit design briefs and book production by the end of July. Venue logistics coordination should begin in September.
📅 Cityscape Global (Oct–Nov)
Real estate exhibition with largest-format booth requirements. Island booths above 36sqm require structural engineering sign-off. Begin production planning 8 weeks before the event date.
📅 Arab Health / ADIPEC (Jan / Nov)
Healthcare and energy sector exhibitions run on strict government procurement timelines. Budget approval for exhibition graphics is often only confirmed 3–4 weeks before — communicate this risk to your production team early.
