Many exhibitors, one deadline set
Trade Show Pavilions
Country, industry and group pavilions — co-exhibitor onboarding, shared build, joint hospitality and one coordinated presence instead of twenty independent ones.
A pavilion puts many small exhibitors under one roof and one deadline set. Left alone, twenty companies each discover the rigging deadline separately and a week too late.
We run it as one programme: co-exhibitor onboarding with a dated checklist per company, a shared build with individual identity inside it, common hospitality and a joint buyer programme that no single participant could have run alone.
What this format looks like
- Typical size
- 6 – 60 co-exhibitors
- Duration
- 3 – 5 show days
- Audience
- Trade bodies, export councils, government agencies, industry groups
Onboarding is the whole job
Each co-exhibitor needs the same twelve things submitted by the same dates — company details, graphics, staff names, freight, electrical, insurance, risk assessment. Chased individually, tracked centrally.
Shared structure, individual identity
A pavilion should read as one presence at forty metres and as distinct companies at four. That is a design problem, and it is solved in the layout rather than in the graphics.
Common hospitality earns the footfall
A shared meeting area, a coffee point and a small stage give every co-exhibitor something they could not afford individually, and give the pavilion a reason for visitors to stop.
A joint buyer programme
Hosted buyers matched across the whole pavilion, with a meeting diary that fills toward each buyer’s quota. Small exhibitors get meetings they would never have secured on their own.
Where it goes wrong
What we look for first on this format.
Every format has a small set of recurring failures. None of them are mysterious; they are just the things that get planned last and matter most.
What you should get out of it
- Every co-exhibitor compliant before the organiser deadline
- One coherent pavilion presence
- A worked meeting diary across all participants
- Consolidated freight and shared costs, itemised per company
