Las Vegas Trade Show Calendar
NAB Show Fabrication
NAB Show returns to Las Vegas Convention Center during April, drawing 65000+ attendees. Exhibit House of Las Vegas delivers custom booth fabrication purpose-built for NAB Show's exhibitor profile: Broadcast cameras, studio equipment, streaming tech, audio gear, post-production software, satellite, IP media infrastructure.
Custom Booth Build for NAB Show
We work from your account team's brand book, but the build itself is engineered from the show's specific rules: ceiling height limits at Las Vegas Convention Center, hanging-sign weight allowances, and any sightline restrictions that apply to NAB Show's floor plan.
NAB Show is one of the Las Vegas shows where booth quality directly shapes attendee perception, so we don't cut corners on materials.
NAB Show runs at Las Vegas Convention Center during April. Attendance is typically 65000+, and the show targets Broadcast cameras, studio equipment, streaming tech, audio gear, post-production software, satellite, IP media infrastructure. Premier media and entertainment technology show. Over 1,700 exhibitors. Uses all halls of LVCC including new West Hall.
Fabrication Lead Times at NAB Show
Fabrication lead times for NAB Show run 8-12 weeks for full custom; rental-to-custom hybrid builds can compress to 4-6 weeks if material is in stock.
Plan backward from NAB Show's install date: graphics signoff at minus-3 weeks, structural fabrication complete at minus-4 weeks, crating at minus-2 weeks, and freight pickup at minus-10 days. We hit those gates or we tell you why we can't.
NAB Show has been hosted by National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) since 1923. Major April anchor; large island and custom booth demand
Material Selection for Las Vegas Convention Center
Material specifications for Las Vegas Convention Center include sustainable hardwood frames, recyclable aluminum extrusions, and printed graphics on substrate that survives Las Vegas's humidity and the freight cycle. We don't use materials that fail at the second install.
We design the structure to break into legal-shippable sections without losing the design intent, so reload-and-redeploy at the next NAB Show cycle is straightforward.
Design-to-Build Workflow for NAB Show
Our workflow keeps fabrication and graphics on parallel tracks for NAB Show, which is the only way to hit aggressive show calendars.
We assign a fabrication project manager to NAB Show who owns the build from kickoff through dismantle. That person is your single contact, runs the production shop, and travels to Las Vegas Convention Center for install if scope warrants it.
Frequently asked questions
How does Las Vegas Convention Center's rigging policy affect what we can build?
Las Vegas Convention Center has specific hanging-sign and rigging rules that we plan around — ceiling height limits, weight per anchor point, and required certified-rigger coordination. Our drawings reference those rules so the field install doesn't get held by the fire marshal.
What's a realistic budget for a custom 20x20 booth at NAB Show?
A 20x20 custom fabrication at NAB Show typically runs $35K-$65K for the structure alone, depending on materials, hanging elements, and finish complexity. Add graphics, AV, freight, drayage, and labor for the all-in number — we quote those line by line.
How early do we need to start fabrication for NAB Show?
For a full custom build at NAB Show, plan on 8-12 weeks from approved drawings to crating, plus another 2-3 weeks for graphic print and apply. Hybrid rental-to-custom builds compress to 4-6 weeks, and pure rental can be 2-4 weeks depending on inventory and graphics complexity.
Do you build the booth in Las Vegas or ship it in?
We fabricate in our Las Vegas shop.
Can the booth be reused at the next cycle of NAB Show?
Yes, and we design for it. We also store the crates between cycles if you want.
