St. Louis Trade Show Booth Design
ET Expo designs, builds, ships and installs custom and rental trade show booths for exhibitors at America's Center Convention Complex downtown, which Explore St. Louis manages and operates.
The complex joins the Cervantes Convention Center, The Dome at America's Center, the Executive Conference Center and the Ferrara Theatre under one roof. Six contiguous exhibit halls give 412,000 sq ft, including a new 72,000 sq ft hall from the recent renovation, and opening the Dome and Annex floors stretches that to 574,000 sq ft of contiguous space - the Dome floor is column-free and divisible. The same renovation more than doubled the enclosed loading docks, now 32 covered docks. For crews, MetroLink light rail and the interstates run close by. We cover design with 3D renderings, in-house fabrication, graphics, freight, installation, dismantling and storage.

Who provides booth electrical in St. Louis?
Electrical is an exclusive in-house service at America's Center, including hard-wire cabling, so we order power through the venue's exhibitor services.
