Your Questions, Answered

Common questions about working with Nova Exhibit Group — Las Vegas's custom exhibit fabrication studio for CES, NAB, SEMA, and conventions across the Strip.

How does the process work?

We start with a quick call to understand your goals, timeline, and budget. From there, we create detailed drawings, so everything is clear before production.

Once approved, we handle fabrication, coordination, and installation, so your exhibit shows up ready to go.

What is the typical timeline?

Most custom exhibits take 8–12 weeks from approval to delivery.
If your timeline is tighter, we can adjust and prioritize to meet your show date.

Can Nova Exhibit Group build from rough sketches or early concepts?

Yes. Whether it’s a sketch, reference photo, or rough idea, we can turn it into a fully built exhibit.

You don’t need finished plans to get started.

What does a custom trade show exhibit cost in Las Vegas?

Most projects range from $15,000 to $200,000+, depending on size, materials, and complexity.

We provide clear pricing early, so you know what to expect—no surprises.

What types of trade show booths do you build in Las Vegas?

Nova Exhibit Group builds inline booths, peninsula booths, island exhibits, double-deck structures, and custom freestanding displays for Las Vegas conventions. Every booth is fabricated with our in-house custom woodwork capabilities — from raw millwork and cabinetry to finished branded surfaces. Whether you need a 10x10 or a 50x50 island, we design and build it here in Las Vegas.

What materials do you use?

We use lightweight, durable materials built for trade shows—primarily plywood, MDF, and high-pressure laminates like Wilsonart and Formica.

These materials provide clean finishes and hold up through shipping and repeated
installs, while keeping weight down to reduce costs and simplify setup.
We also incorporate metal, acrylic, and composite materials when needed.

Everything is built in-house and designed to perform on the show floor.

Do you build exhibits for the Las Vegas Convention Center?

Yes. We regularly build and install at LVCC and are familiar with the loading docks,
union requirements, and setup process.

That means fewer delays and smoother installs on show day.

What Las Vegas trade shows do you regularly build for?

Nova Exhibit Group regularly builds exhibits for CES, NAB Show, SEMA, MAGIC, The Venetian Expo events, and dozens of other conventions held across Las Vegas each year. We also work at Mandalay Bay, Caesars Forum, Resorts World, and other Strip convention venues. If your show is in Las Vegas, we know the venue and can manage the full installation.

Can you handle exhibit storage between Las Vegas shows?

Yes. We offer local storage for clients who exhibit multiple times a year.Your booth stays secure, maintained, and ready to deploy—without the hassle of
repeated shipping.

Are you based in Las Vegas?

Yes. Our shop, team, and project management are all based in Las Vegas.
We’re on-site when needed, respond quickly, and stay involved from setup through tear-
down.

What makes Nova Exhibit Group different from other Las Vegas exhibit builders?

We build everything in-house and manage the full process from start to finish.
No outsourcing, no handoffs, just one team responsible for getting it done right.
We also know the Las Vegas venues inside and out, which means fewer delays and smoother installations.
