Focus 2026 has height restrictions based on booth type—inline booths are generally limited to 8 feet, while island booths can extend higher with prior approval. We are well-versed in these guidelines and design your booth to the maximum permitted height from the outset, eliminating the need for last-minute changes on move-in day.
Exhibit Rentals Designed to Highlight the Latest Trends in Finance
August 9-12, 2026 | San Diego Convention Center, San Diego, CA
Focus 2026 is LPL Financial’s flagship conference, and the expo floor is where asset managers and financial product providers connect with advisors. At Exponents, we design custom exhibit displays for Focus exhibitors that reflect the priorities of financial services: spaces that foster trust, support relationship-building, and help your team stand out for the right reasons.
- Private Meeting Spaces: Semi-enclosed areas designed for one-on-one advisor meetings. These are the settings where real business conversations take place.
- Presentation Zones: We build spaces designed for fund showcases, annuity briefings, and strategy walkthroughs, providing the right platform to share expertise.
- Open Engagement Areas: We position approachable entry points that invite advisors from the busy show floor and encourage genuine engagement.

Let’s Get Started with Your Focus 2026 Booth
Request a QuoteWhat Role Does Trade Show Booth Design Play in Standing Out at Focus 2026?
Focus brings together hundreds of LPL-affiliated advisors, and every sponsor on the floor is competing for their attention. Advisors are aware of this.
Your Focus exhibit design starts working before your team says a word. A cramped layout turns people away. A confusing setup stops conversations before they begin. But a booth that is easy to enter, with a clear place to sit, a screen that shows what you do, and a corner for a private chat, works for you all day.
At Focus, advisors are looking for partners, not just products. A booth that looks put-together earns their attention and is taken seriously.

My experience with Exponents was really amazing. It was so easy I was almost worried it was fake! The production process was really clear and deadlines were well communicated. Onsite, the team was on time and gracious in building the booth. I truly didn't need to worry about anything. I showed up and left and they took care of everything. I would use them again with no hesitation.

Frequently Asked Questions
We manage the entire process end to end. Your booth is shipped to the advanced warehouse before the deadline, with all freight coordination handled by our team. If the advance window is missed, we arrange direct-to-show shipping, which involves tighter timelines and may incur higher material handling and installation costs—but we take care of it seamlessly. Our commitment is simple: your booth will be show-ready before you arrive, with no unexpected charges.
California is not a right-to-work state, and trade shows follow specific union jurisdiction rules that determine who can perform certain tasks on-site. We handle all aspects of union labor coordination—including scheduling, supervision, and ensuring compliance with venue regulations. You don’t need to navigate San Diego’s rules; we’ve already got it covered.
Yes—but only if the booth was built by us, and this must be communicated in advance. If you’re renting, please specify the graphics you’d like to retain at the time of agreement so we can store them properly.
Both are arranged through Focus 2026’s official contractor and coordinated by our team. You’ll pay the organizer directly, with no additional charges or markups from our side.
Focus draws finance and investment professionals, much like Money 20/20 and AFP. Exhibitors who participate in all three can benefit from repeated exposure to the same buyer audience, strengthening brand recall throughout the year. We work with exhibitors across the full finance show calendar, helping you build a strategy that maximizes your booth investment by reusing and adapting it across multiple events instead of treating each show as a separate expense.
