We recommend starting at least three to six months in advance to allow time for design approvals, production, and coordination of show services. This lead time also helps secure preferred design options and avoid rush charges.

20×20 Exhibit Booth for Franklin Templeton At LPL Focus, Designed and Built By Exponents in San Diego Our San Diego Advantage
San Diego is a leading convention destination, home to major shows like Comic-Con International, BIO International Convention, Esri User Conference, and the American Society of Hematology Annual Meeting. Venues including the San Diego Convention Center, Town & Country Resort, Marriott Marquis, Hilton Bayfront, and Gaylord Chula Vista Resort & Convention Center attract exhibitors from biotech, healthcare, defense, and entertainment.
The center’s downtown location contributes to significant traffic congestion, and there is limited parking for commercial vehicles. Furthermore, San Diego is a top-tier hub for the biotech and healthcare industries, hosting a high volume of specialized conventions. This concentration of events creates strong demand for skilled trade show contractors. Consequently, contractor availability can be limited, especially when large events overlap, making it critical for exhibitors to book services well in advance.
That’s why working with a San Diego trade show booth rental company that offers local production, trial builds, and on-site support is critical. Our 30,000 sq. ft. facility is less than 25 miles from SDCC, giving you fast response times and complete control from design through dismantle.
