*At previous events the facilities offer a fully carpeted exhibit hall, but the exhibit hall in Charleston has a highly polished and attractive concrete floor instead of being carpeted.
You do have the option of renting carpeting through PRX Exposition Services for your booth or you can also bring your own carpeting if you’d prefer. Since the aisles and common areas will not be carpeted, we would encourage you to consider going “carpet free”, saving you some valuable trade show money. However, we have no objection if you would prefer to have carpeting in your booth.
