Space only or shell scheme?

UK organisers usually sell stands in two ways. Shell scheme is a basic stand supplied by the organiser, with walls, a fascia board with your name, lighting and power. Space only is bare floor, where you bring your own custom stand. A builder can improve a shell scheme with graphics and furniture, or design and build a complete stand on a space-only plot.

Space-only plots usually suit larger stands and companies that want a distinctive look, while shell scheme is common for smaller stands and first-time exhibitors.

What UK venues expect

  • Organisers usually ask for stand plans and health and safety information before build-up.
  • Electrics, rigging and some other services are often ordered through the organiser's official contractors.
  • Build-up and breakdown run to fixed times, so a builder who knows the venue saves stress.

Getting quotes through Stand Supplier is free, and you choose whether to work with any of the builders.
