Displays for Event Exhibitors
Beyond Orlando
One Display, Multiple Shows
IAAPA hosts exhibitions across Orlando, Asia, Europe, and the Middle East, giving businesses opportunities to connect with the attractions industry worldwide.

Packs into cases
Backdrops, banners, and counters fold into cases you can ship or check no crating for a standard booth.
Sets up quickly
Pop-up and tension-fabric pieces assemble without tools, so setup time goes into your demo, not the hardware.
Consistent brand, every show
Reuse the same system at other attractions events, updating the graphic when your products or message change.
