Tier 3 booths are situated in the farthest third of the exhibition hall from entrances, providing basic exposure at a lower cost. They capture less foot traffic due to their location, suitable for exhibitors looking for an economical option.


Tier 2 booths are located in the middle third of the hall, offering better visibility and increased foot traffic due to their closer proximity to the entrances. This option balances visibility and cost, ideal for exhibitors seeking to upgrade their presence from standard booths.


(SOLD OUT) Tier 1 booths, located in the closest third of the hall to the entrances, provide the highest exposure and foot traffic. Being the first and last booths attendees see, they offer maximum customer engagement, ideal for exhibitors looking for the top-tier booth option.
