Last-Minute Booth Rental for NBAA-BACE
Short on time before NBAA-BACE? Here's what's still possible for a fast booth and LED wall rental at Las Vegas Convention Center — and the deadlines that matter.
NBAA-BACE is next on Oct 20–22, 2026, Las Vegas Convention Center, West Hall. Aircraft Connection static display at Henderson Executive Airport, Oct 20-21, 2026. The 2028 edition moves to New Orleans (Oct 10-12, 2028).
Show services (drayage, electrical, labor) are cheapest at the advance-order deadline, which lands weeks before move-in — the maths is in our drayage guide.

Short on time before NBAA-BACE? You still have good options. We hold modular rental systems, SEG lightboxes and LED panels in stock in Las Vegas, so the constraint on a rush booth at Las Vegas Convention Center is almost never the hardware — it's graphics and the venue's own deadlines.
What a rush booth costs at NBAA-BACE
Rush does not mean a different price list. These are the same rates we quote six months out; what changes is which options are still open.
| Item | Buy | Rent per day | Setup & teardown |
|---|---|---|---|
| LED poster (2.3' x 6.5') | $3,200 + tax | $300 – $400 | $500 per poster |
| Tri-fold LED poster | $4,200 + tax | $400 – $500 | $600 |
| 3-sided LED tower (12' tall) | $35,000 | up to $6,500 | $1,800 |
| Curved LED panels | Quote on request | $200 – $250 per panel | Quoted with the build |
Booth structure itself runs the standard bands — see NBAA-BACE booth rental cost for the full size-by-size breakdown. We do not charge a rush premium on in-stock inventory.
What's still possible, by how long you have
| Time to NBAA-BACE | What we can still do | What's closed |
|---|---|---|
| 4+ weeks | Everything — custom modular build, full LED wall, printed graphics, advance-warehouse freight at the lower rate. | Nothing. |
| 2–4 weeks | Modular booth, in-stock LED, SEG lightboxes, new graphics printed and shipped. | Advance electrical pricing is usually gone; custom fabrication is tight. |
| 1–2 weeks | In-stock modular kit, LED posters and panels, rush graphics (48-hour print). | Custom build, hanging signs needing rigging approval, advance freight rates. |
| Under 1 week | In-stock booth and LED delivered direct to showsite, graphics printed in Las Vegas, our crew installs. | Anything shipped, anything fabricated, anything hung. |
Because we are physically in Las Vegas, the under-one-week row is real rather than theoretical — the booth does not have to survive a freight lane to reach Las Vegas Convention Center.
The deadlines that actually bind at Las Vegas Convention Center
- Graphics are the real clock — dye-sub fabric prints in 5–7 business days, or 48 hours on a rush. Lock artwork first; everything else can move.
- Electrical — the advance-order discount (typically 30–50%) is the first thing you lose. If it has passed, order anyway; floor pricing beats no power.
- Drayage — Material handling (drayage) at the LVCC is billed per hundredweight by the show's official general contractor — published rates run from about $0.70 to $1.85 per lb depending on the show (CES 2027 lists $0.71, NAB 2026 listed $1.84), 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). Confirm the specifics in your show's exhibitor manual.
- Local advantage — Order drayage, electrical and rigging early through the exhibitor kit — on-site and last-minute rates spike sharply.
Timing: NBAA-BACE runs each October, and October is the densest month in Las Vegas; overlapping shows mean drayage crews and riggers are stretched, and rush fees climb.
