Types of Trade Show Lighting

There are a few different options available when it comes to lighting your trade show booth. Our booth displays offer lighting within packages or as accessories with the following: banner stand exhibits, pop up exhibits, panel trade show display, truss booths and our fabric structures.

For those who have attended shows previously, you know the difference between a well lit and poorly lit booth. You don't want to be the booth that has little or no lighting. When you ignore lighting you take away valuable attention which could be paid to your booth or more importantly your graphics. An exhibit that is lit well stands out in a crowd.

The two most common versions available are Las Vegas Trade Show Lights and what our author calls Full Impact Lights.

When purchasing your trade show lights, you need to be sure that you check with the convention or conference center where you will be exhibiting to ensure that the type of light you are purchasing is allowed. The Las Vegas Convention and Conference Center and Chicago Convention Center don't allow many common trade show lights because of the fire hazard that these lights create. In an effort to protect their massive facility from careless exhibitors, many types of lights that get hot quickly have been disallowed. Your only alternative is the Las Vegas Light often smaller wattage- 50- 75 watts.

Full Impact Displays
No matter how much money and time you are willing to devote to creating the perfect trade show display, your exhibit will not reach its full potential without the use of trade show lighting. Full impact displays require well placed lights that are designed to highlight specific areas of the booth. With an action as simple as turning on a light switch, you could make your company logo visible from across the convention floor.
