Bespoke Stand Fabrication
Built entirely in-house, combining skilled craftsmanship with quality materials to produce durable exhibition stands matched precisely to your brand and show specifications.

Strategic illumination, dynamic audio-visual displays and immersive technology that elevate brand presence and create a genuinely engaging visitor experience.

Venues We Build In Across the UAE
Every venue runs its own build-up window, height limits, rigging rules and drawing submission process. Knowing them before design starts is what keeps a stand from being redrawn after the organiser comes back.
Expo City Dubai
Large-format and pavilion builds, with the additional approval layer that purpose-built expo venues apply.
ADNEC
We build for Abu Dhabi shows including ADIHEX at ADNEC, handling transport from our Dubai facility and the emirate’s own submission requirements.
Sharjah Expo Centre
Smaller footprints and regional trade shows, built and installed to the same standard.
Beyond the UAE
We also build for shows across the GCC, including Big 5 Riyadh and LEAP — transport, customs and local approvals handled from Dubai.

What Determines an Exhibition Stand Price in Dubai
Six things move the number on a stand quote. Knowing them is the difference between comparing quotes and guessing.
Floor Area & Stand Type
Cost scales with square metres, but type matters more than size. Shell scheme upgrade, modular and fully custom sit in three different brackets on the same footprint.
Single or Double Deck
A double decker stand doubles usable area without extra floor rent, but adds engineering, stamped calculations and venue approval.
Build Complexity
Curved walls, suspended elements, custom joinery and spray finishes take more machine and labour hours than flat panel construction.
Graphics & Print Area
Print is quoted per square metre and by substrate. Large format printing changes both first cost and reprint cost between shows.
Lighting, AV & Furniture
Screens, LED walls and AV, lighting and furniture are rental lines. Confirm whether a technician is included.
Venue & Logistics
Organiser fees, power connection, drawing submission, build-up and tear-down labour, and storage. The lines most often missing from a cheap quote.
How Long an Exhibition Stand Takes to Build
A standard custom stand runs three to six weeks. See how long an exhibition stand takes to build for the stage-by-stage breakdown. See our exhibition stand cost guide for worked examples.
Week 1 — Brief & Concept
Floor plan review, concept direction and first 3D visuals so you can see the stand before anything is committed.
Week 2 — Approval
Design sign-off, technical drawings, and submission to the organiser for venue approval.
Weeks 3–5 — Fabrication
Joinery, spray finishing, graphics production and a dry build in our workshop for quality check.
Week 6 — Build-Up
Transport to venue, build during the organiser window, and final snagging before doors open.
After the Show
Dismantling, return transport and storage if the stand is being reused next season.
Complex Builds
Double-decker and suspended structures need longer for approval — see the Dubai permits guide.

Exhibition stand fabrication involves designing, building, and installing custom booths for trade shows, conferences, and events, helping brands attract attention and engage visitors effectively.
We handle concept design, 3D visualisation, in-house fabrication, graphics, installation and dismantling. One project manager runs it from brief to breakdown.
Yes. Maxima and Octanorm modular systems pack down and reuse across multiple shows, and we store them between events at our Dubai facility.
Fabrication timelines vary by stand size and complexity. Standard custom stands are usually designed and fabricated within 3–6 weeks.
We build across the UAE and for shows in Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Oman, handling transport, customs and local approvals.
Complete on-site installation, dismantling, and technical support are included to ensure smooth operation during events.
Quotes can be requested via the website or by contacting The Face Events directly. Requirements, design preferences, and specifications are discussed before providing a customized proposal.
Ask three things: whether fabrication is in-house or subcontracted, whether the quote is itemised down to graphics, lighting and installation, and who submits drawings to the organiser. Our full checklist is in the guide to choosing an exhibition stand builder in Dubai.
Yes. We build for Abu Dhabi shows including ADIHEX at ADNEC, transporting from our Dubai workshop and handling the emirate’s own drawing submission and approval requirements.
It depends on floor area, stand type, build complexity, graphics area, AV and venue fees — the six factors set out above. Send your show, stand size and build-up dates and you get an itemised proposal rather than a single figure. Worked examples are in our exhibition stand cost guide.
