Find the Right Venue

Hosting a trade show or conference starts with finding the right venue to fit your needs. Someone has to search high and low for conference and convention spaces that will do everything you need to be done. Don’t settle on an event space just because it’s cheap or nearby. The venue you choose must be perfect for your event.

No matter where you look, ask yourself these important questions:

  • How much space is enough?
  • Do you have the rental furniture needed
  • Do you have the right event stage equipment?
  • Is there a theme or style you want to project?
  • Does it have good Wi-Fi capabilities?

If you find the perfect venue, but they don’t have furniture, or the equipment needed to match your vision, don’t panic. You still have options!

Rent The Equipment You Need For Success

Now that you have a venue, how will you make the experience memorable for your attendees? Your trade show or conference will have booths full of merchants and businesses working their marketing magic; be sure to support their magic with well-chosen amenities from vendors you like and trust. Amenities can include refreshments, food, portable charging stations and charging furniture, and event lighting. You also will likely need sound and stage rental equipment to call special attention to certain topics and announcements as needed.
