How we approach Web Summit
For Web Summit we favour pre-assembled modular builds that install in a single shift, with graphics that read from three aisles away.
Web Summit stands — FAQs
How much does an exhibition stand at Web Summit cost?
A custom single-storey stand at Web Summit typically runs £450–£900 per sqm of build, so a 60 sqm stand lands around £35,000–£55,000 before space, freight and services. Double-deck builds run £1,100–£1,900 per sqm of ground footprint.
When do stand designs need approval for Web Summit?
FIL & Altice Arena organisers generally require structural drawings 8–12 weeks before build-up, with the longer window applying to double-deck stands and anything above the standard height limit. Late submission attracts surcharges and can be refused.
Do you build stands for exhibitors at Web Summit?
Yes. We design, engineer, build and install stands at FIL & Altice Arena in Lisbon, handling structural approval, rigging, services, freight, on-site supervision and dismantle under one contract.
