GS1 Connect Booth Rentals

Every barcode on every shelf traces back to a standard. This is the floor where the people who set it compare notes.

Fixed-price GS1 Connect 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 pitching a data-standards audience spanning grocery, retail and healthcare has already stood up once before it reaches Denver.

GS1 Connect isn’t one industry. It’s three, comparing notes.

GS1 Connect gathers grocery, retail and healthcare supply chain professionals around a single shared subject: data standards, barcoding and traceability. That’s different from a single-vertical trade show, and the most expensive mistake here is a booth written in language only one of those three industries recognizes.

Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center

A resort-attached convention center near DIA

A large purpose-built exhibit facility, but attached to a resort property northeast of downtown Denver — a different loading-dock and freight profile than the city’s downtown convention venues. We plan your dock target time and freight window to this specific property, not a generic Denver assumption.

A cross-industry floor

Grocery, retail & healthcare, side by side

The same aisle can carry a grocery ops director and a hospital supply chain lead. A booth built entirely in one vertical’s jargon reads as irrelevant to the other two-thirds of the floor — we design messaging hierarchy that lands with all three without diluting any of them.

The May problem

Spring show season, plus mountain weather

Spring is the busiest stretch on the show calendar for fabrication capacity, and Denver’s spring can still see late snow events into April that snarl ground freight on the interstates feeding the metro area — a factor most exhibitors don’t think about until a shipment is stuck in a mountain pass.

What we handle at GS1 Connect
  • Floor-specific design — sightlines planned for your actual placement
  • Layout submission and show approval, filed early
  • Electrical, rigging and material handling at advance rates
  • Labour coordination and on-site supervision
  • COI, EAC and exhibitor-manual deadlines mapped to our calendar
  • Resort 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 winter should survive May

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 May

Your real deadline is in early April

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. This also sits inside peak spring show season, so fabrication capacity across dozens of overlapping events fills up before most exhibitors start asking.

Five questions to ask anyone quoting your GS1 Connect 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 March 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.
4 Who files my advance show orders, and at which rate? Ours: we do, at advance rates, mapped to every exhibitor-manual deadline. During the spring show crunch, if a vendor can’t answer this immediately, that’s your answer.
5 What happens if late-season mountain weather delays my freight? Ours: your freight window is booked with a buffer ahead of the advance cutoff, and your design and paperwork are already locked. A weather delay on the interstate means rerouting a shipment — not scrambling to redesign or refile at floor rates.

Questions GS1 Connect exhibitors actually ask

GS1 Connect booth rental FAQs

How much does a GS1 Connect booth rental cost?
Every booth on this page is published with its Denver price — fixed and all-inclusive: design, fabrication, graphics, furniture, freight, labour 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 GS1 Connect?
Lock your design by early April. The advance-order cutoff lands roughly eight weeks before the show, right in the middle of the busiest stretch on the annual show calendar. Start the conversation in winter 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.
Is the Gaylord Rockies the same as downtown Denver’s convention center?
No — the Gaylord Rockies Resort & Convention Center sits near Denver International Airport, well outside downtown, with its own resort-property loading docks and freight rhythm. We book your dock target time and freight window to this specific venue, not a generic downtown assumption.
My buyers span grocery, retail and healthcare — should my booth pick one?
No — the strongest GS1 Connect booths speak to the shared subject (data standards, traceability, identification) in language that lands across all three verticals, then let staff tailor the conversation once someone’s in the booth. We design that messaging hierarchy specifically for cross-industry floors like this one.
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 labour?
Resort exhibit floors run on contracted labour governed by the show. Either way it isn’t your problem to arrange: labour 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 GS1 Connect 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. During the spring show crunch, the earlier you call, the more of that window sits outside the busiest fabrication weeks.
