Island Booth Displays

BOOTH TYPES

Island Booth Displays

Island booths are the flagship of the trade show floor — free-standing on all four sides, unlimited in creative direction, and built to make your brand the anchor of the entire hall.

Overview

What Makes Island Booth Displays Different

Island booths generally begin at 20′ x 20′ and increase in size from there. Unlike peninsulas, an island is free-standing on all four sides with no shared walls — giving your designers complete creative freedom in every direction.

The most common size is 20′ x 20′, although these booths can expand significantly — such as 30′ x 30′, 50′ x 60′, and beyond. In most cases, approximately 3,000 square feet is considered the upper range unless the exhibitor is a major corporate brand such as General Motors or another large-scale manufacturer.

With no sight-line restrictions and 360-degree visibility, islands are where multi-level architecture, theaters, hospitality lounges, and full-scale product experiences come to life.

900 sq ft. Room for multiple product experiences, semi-private meeting rooms, and dramatic architectural elements like arches or towers.
