Exhibition stall sizes in India
The most common exhibition stall sizes are 3×3 m (9 sq m), 6×3 m (18 sq m), 6×6 m (36 sq m) and 9×6 m (54 sq m). How many sides are open to the aisle matters as much as the size.
Common sizes
| Size | Area | In feet (approx.) | Typical open sides |
|---|---|---|---|
| 3×3 m | 9 sq m | 10×10 ft | one or two open sides (inline or corner) |
| 6×3 m | 18 sq m | 20×10 ft | one or two open sides |
| 6×6 m | 36 sq m | 20×20 ft | two, three or four open sides |
| 9×6 m | 54 sq m | 30×20 ft | two, three or four open sides |
Open-side types
| Type | Open sides | What it means for design |
|---|---|---|
| Inline | 1 | Back and side walls are shared; design one face to the aisle. |
| Corner | 2 | Two faces visible; place the counter at the corner. |
| Peninsula | 3 | One back wall; the other three faces need branding. |
| Island | 4 | No back wall; every face is a front. |
