How Much Does a Booth at National Hardware Show Cost?
Real 2026 price ranges for renting a trade show booth and LED wall at National Hardware Show (Las Vegas Convention Center) — by booth size, plus what drives the cost.
Budgeting a booth for National Hardware Show at Las Vegas 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 National Hardware Show.
| Booth size | Typical all-in rental | What that includes |
|---|---|---|
| 10x10 inline | $3,000 – $9,000 | Banner stand or modular kit, header sign, lighting. |

What drives the price at National Hardware Show
- 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 Las Vegas Convention Center — Material handling (drayage) at the LVCC is billed per hundredweight by the show's official general contractor — typically $0.95–$1.50/lb with weight minimums — so palletizing and advance-warehouse shipping save real money.
- Labor — The LVCC leans union, but it's largely up to each show's rules: a lot of display work — LED posters, SEG lightboxes, backwalls, fabric, ground-supported LED walls, and booth set/dismantle — can be exhibitor- or vendor-installed, while electrical beyond simple plug-in and any overhead rigging or hanging signs go to union trades (Teamsters, electricians & riggers).
