How Much Does a Booth at Black Hat USA Cost?

Budgeting a booth for Black Hat USA at Mandalay Bay Convention Center comes down to three things: booth size, how much custom build and LED you want, and the Las Vegas show costs that catch first-timers off guard (drayage, labor, electrical). Here are realistic 2026 ranges for an exhibit rental at Black Hat USA.

What drives the price at Black Hat USA

• Custom vs. modular — a rental modular system costs far less than a fully custom build.
• LED video wall — fine-pitch LED is the biggest single upgrade (and the biggest traffic driver).
• Show services at Mandalay Bay Convention Center — Mandalay Bay routes freight through the show's general contractor with standard CWT drayage; the south-Strip location keeps trucking simple from the I-15 and the airport.
• Labor — Union labor handles rigging and electrical; smaller inline booths can often be hand-carried and self-built within the rules.
