Formats this suits
As a convention centre this is built for floors rather than seats — exhibitions, trade shows and multi-track conferences where the hall is subdivided. Ask for the hall sheet with column spacing and load-in doors before you commit to a booth plan.
- trade shows and exhibitions
Built as a floor rather than a seating plan, which is what an exhibition needs.
- multi-track conferences
The same hall subdivides into tracks once the booths come out.
- career fairs
A booth grid and a single controlled entrance is the whole requirement.
