Include setup and service arrangements in the booth plan
For a Chicago exhibition, the booth design and the move-in plan should be developed together. McCormick Place provides exhibitor information covering service contractors, installation and technology services. Review the arrangements for your specific show before assuming your team can perform every task itself.
Write down which parts you will transport, who will receive them and who will assemble them. A clear packing list and measured floor plan are useful whether your stand uses a compact backdrop or several display components. For an outdoor promotion elsewhere in Chicago, develop a separate canopy and anchoring plan.
Choose equipment around the customer interaction
A printed canopy can suit an outdoor product demonstration or a promotional counter when the site approves the setup. Choose the footprint around staff, stock and the space needed for visitors. Keep the main message visible above the table and place detailed information near the products.
Inside an exhibition hall, compare 10×10 display packages by their written contents and hardware dimensions. Check transport dimensions as well as assembled size. If you are adding a table, match the cover to the actual table length and the access staff need behind it.
Compare the printed equipment
- Canopy Package 1: compare 10×10, 10×15 and 10×20 sizes, with 40mm or 50mm aluminum frame options.
- Feather flags: a separate sign for an approved approach or display area.
- Printed table covers: coordinated graphics for the counter or product table.
- 10×10 trade show displays: compare indoor backdrop and counter combinations.
Chicago event planning checklist
- Read the specific show's exhibitor manual and McCormick Place service information.
- Confirm who handles delivery, unloading, installation and dismantling.
- Mark service and equipment positions on the booth layout.
- Check the display height and aisle boundaries before ordering graphics.
- For an outdoor event, confirm approved anchoring and clear walking routes separately from the indoor exhibit plan.
Does portable equipment mean I can assemble it myself at every venue?
No. A product's assembly method and a venue's permitted work arrangements are separate matters. Confirm the show and venue requirements before deciding who will install the display.
Ordering for an event date
Tell us your product choice, delivery address, event date and venue requirements before ordering. Available shipping options depend on your destination.
