The Adventure Travel Show is the UK’s only consumer event for off-the-beaten-track and adventurous travel.
Held annually at the Business Design Centre, the show gathers over 100 specialist travel operators, explorers and gear experts to help visitors plan independent expeditions, treks and remote journeys.
Exhibition Stand Design at Adventure Travel Show
Attendees at the Adventure Travel Show specifically attend to book active, remote travel, and this functionality should be reflected in the exhibition stand design.
The show floor is mostly dominated by shell schemes and turn-key solutions, meaning that most exhibitors are in booths of a similar size and height. Since these spaces can be snug, businesses have to make strategic use of space.
Using a shell scheme transformation to remove the overhead shell and inlay a booth is the most effective way to stand out. Building high above the line of shell schemes gives you a significant advantage over competitors, making your branding a beacon to eyes in the hall. With these solutions, you don’t waste an inch of stand footprint. All brochures, screens and products can be integrated directly into the stand, keeping your stand clear. You can even create semi-private meeting nooks for meaningful discussions.
Visitors at this event are sold by the allure of travel. Make sure that graphic design features large-format, compelling imagery to set context and create excitement.
