Black Hat USA Booth Rentals

The people walking this floor break systems for a living. Your booth is next.

Fixed-price Black Hat USA exhibits — design, fabrication, graphics, freight, installation and dismantle in one number that doesn’t move. Pre-built, lit and photo-approved before it ships, so the booth facing InfoSec’s most technical audience has already passed its own inspection.

The kind of booth InfoSec actually stops for

Black Hat USA draws security researchers, InfoSec practitioners and enterprise buyers who evaluate vendors the way they evaluate code — skeptically, and by looking closely. The work below is what we build for security companies: structures designed around the demo and the technical conversation, with every project moving through one team from first rendering to dismantle.

Know the floor before you plan the booth

The business hall is short. Your window to convert isn’t.

Black Hat USA runs training and briefings across most of the week, but the business hall itself is open for a compressed two-day window. Every attendee who walks it arrives with intent — this isn’t a floor people wander for badges. The most expensive Black Hat mistake isn’t a bad booth; it’s a booth that takes too long to make its point.

Mandalay Bay Convention Center

Purpose-built exhibit and conference space

A large, well-run building with its own dock schedule and move-in windows. Freight that arrives outside its window waits — and waiting is billed by the hour. We plan the booth and the freight plan to the building’s actual schedule, not the show’s mailing address.

A two-day business hall

Trainings & briefings run days before the floor opens

With only two days on the floor, there’s no slow build to a Wednesday rush — every visitor who walks up on day one is already qualified. Booths win here on immediate clarity: what you do, who it’s for, and one interaction that proves it, readable before someone finishes their first step past your sign.

The DEF CON handoff

Many exhibitors run both shows in one Vegas trip

DEF CON follows immediately after in the same city, and a number of security brands work both events on a single trip. That doesn’t have to mean building twice — we can plan graphics and structure that carry cleanly from one show into the next without a full rebuild.

What we handle at Black Hat USA
  • Floor-specific design — sightlines planned for your actual placement
  • Layout submission and show approval, filed early
  • Electrical, rigging and material handling at advance rates
  • Labor coordination and on-site supervision
  • COI, EAC and exhibitor-manual deadlines mapped to our calendar
  • Dock target times, dismantle, pack and outbound freight
Billed by the show, not by us

Booth space, electrical, drayage, rigging and cleaning are billed to every exhibitor directly by the show — no exhibit house can absorb them and none should claim to. What we do is calculate them for your exact booth before you commit, and file every order at advance rather than floor rates.

  • Booth space
  • Electrical drops and floor distribution
  • Material handling (drayage)
  • Rigging, if you’re hanging a sign
  • Daily cleaning · internet
Why a fixed price matters most here

The budget you present in spring should survive summer

Trade show invoices grow the same way everywhere: labour hours over estimate, revisions rebilled as change orders, graphics reprints, supervision time nobody flagged. Our model is the opposite — the number you approve is the number you pay, contractually. Design revisions are unlimited until you approve. The quote and the final invoice are the same document.

01

One number, and it holds

Design, fabrication, graphics, furniture, lighting, freight, installation, dismantle and project management in a single fixed price.

02

Proven before it ships

Your booth stands fully assembled and lit at our 65,000 sq ft facility, and you approve photographs of the actual build — not a render.

03

Show costs, known up front

Space, electrical, drayage and rigging calculated for your exact booth before you commit — so the total is a number, not a range.

04

The paperwork is ours

COI, EAC, electrical, rigging, freight windows — filed at advance rates, mapped to every exhibitor-manual deadline. Nothing lands on your desk three days before it’s due.

We quote higher and cost less. That’s the whole argument, and it’s why every booth below is published with its price rather than hidden behind a “request a quote” form.

Working backwards from August

Your real deadline is in June

The advance-order cutoff lands roughly eight weeks before the show — the exact date is in the facts strip at the top of this page, and it updates automatically each edition. For a summer show that cutoff sits in early June, which is also when many InfoSec teams are finalizing plans for DEF CON the same week.

Five questions to ask anyone quoting your Black Hat booth

Put these to every exhibit house you’re comparing — including us. They separate the vendors that stand behind a number from the ones whose estimate is an opening position. Our answers are printed here so you can hold us to them.

1 Will you put the total price in writing before I sign — and hold it? Ours: yes. Every booth on this page is published with its price. The quote and the final invoice are the same number, contractually. Printed above · hold us to it
2 Do design revisions become change orders? Ours: never. Revisions are unlimited until you approve, and the price is locked before design starts — a better idea in May costs nothing.
3 Will I see my actual booth before it ships — or a render? Ours: the actual booth, fully assembled and lit at our facility, photographed for your sign-off before it ships. Renders are promises; photographs are evidence — a standard this audience appreciates more than most.
4 Who files my advance show orders, and at which rate? Ours: we do, at advance rates, mapped to every exhibitor-manual deadline. On a two-day business hall, the cost of getting infrastructure wrong is compressed into far less time to fix it — if a vendor can’t answer this immediately, that’s your answer.
5 What happens if your production schedule collides with DEF CON the same week? Ours: nothing — your booth is built and photo-approved before June ends, well ahead of the summer rush. Any vendor still fabricating for both shows in late July is gambling with one of them. Ask them directly.

Questions Black Hat exhibitors actually ask

Black Hat USA booth rental FAQs

How much does a Black Hat USA booth rental cost?
Every booth on this page is published with its Las Vegas price — fixed and all-inclusive: design, fabrication, graphics, furniture, freight, labor coordination and project management. Separately, the show bills you directly for booth space, electrical, drayage, rigging and cleaning; we calculate those for your exact booth before you commit, so the total is known before you sign anything.
When should I book a booth for Black Hat USA?
Lock your design by early June. The advance-order cutoff falls roughly eight weeks before the show, and that window fills fast for anyone also planning a DEF CON presence the same week. Start the conversation in early spring for full design freedom; the exact advance-order deadline for the next edition is in the facts strip at the top of this page and updates automatically.
What’s move-in like at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center?
Organized, with its own dock schedule and targeted move-in windows. Freight that arrives outside its window waits — and waiting is billed by the hour. We book the freight window and target time to your actual move-in slot, and your project manager and install supervisor are on site through move-in. You walk in at handover.
We’re exhibiting at both Black Hat and DEF CON — can our booth carry over?
Often, yes. Because both shows land in Las Vegas the same week for a lot of security brands, we can plan graphics and structure that adapt cleanly between the two floors instead of building from scratch twice — worth raising with us during the design brief.
My booth is built around a live demo or hacking exhibit. Can you handle the power and network needs?
Yes — technical demos are what this floor runs on, and they fail on infrastructure, not intent. We spec the electrical load, drop locations and floor distribution for your exact equipment, file the advance electrical order, and pressure-test the setup during the pre-build at our facility, so the first time your demo runs on show power isn’t the morning the doors open.
Will a rental look custom, or will it look reused?
Every booth is fabricated for your brand — custom graphics, layout, lighting and finishes on a modular structure underneath. The builds shown above are rentals. Before yours ships, it stands fully assembled and lit at our facility and you approve photographs of the actual booth, not a render.
Can I install the booth myself to save on labor?
Show floors run on contracted labor, governed by the show’s own rules for who may build what. Either way it isn’t your problem to arrange: labor coordination and on-site supervision are inside our fixed price, filed at advance rather than floor rates.
What happens if something goes wrong during move-in?
Your project manager and our install supervisor are on site through move-in and reachable across show days. Because everything was assembled and checked before shipping, the problems that usually surface at this stage — missing hardware, graphics that don’t fit, panels that won’t seat — have already been found and fixed on our floor, weeks earlier.
A vendor just fell through. How fast can you deliver a Black Hat booth?
Four to six weeks from approval to show floor for complete pre-built, photo-verified booths from 10×10 through 20×40 — at the same fixed price as a six-month lead time, with no rush surcharge.
