Exhibition Stall Cost In Pakistan
A straight answer to "how much will this cost?" — broken down by booth size, booth type, modular vs custom, materials and city, so you can budget before you ask for a quote.
Average Exhibition Stall Cost Ranges In Pakistan
Exhibition stall cost in Pakistan typically ranges from around PKR 94,499 for a small 10×10 ft booth to well over PKR 1,000,000 for a large custom or double-deck stand — the deciding factors being size, materials, branding, lighting and whether the build is modular or fully custom.
There's no single "exhibition stall price" that applies to every project, and any contractor quoting one number without asking about your booth size or materials is skipping steps. This guide breaks down exactly what moves the number up or down, so you can budget realistically and compare quotes properly.
Cost By Booth Size
Indicative starting prices for common booth sizes and formats — final pricing depends on materials, branding and finishing.
Prices above are indicative starting points for reference only — every project is quoted against your final drawing, materials and city of installation.
Cost By Booth Type
Beyond size, how many sides of your stand are open to the aisle also affects cost — more open sides generally mean more finished surface area and structural work:
- Inline booths — open on one side only, generally the most economical format.
- Corner booths — open on two sides, a modest step up from inline.
- Peninsula booths — open on three sides, more finished surface to design and build.
- Island booths — open on all four sides, typically the highest cost per square foot due to full 360° finishing.
- Double-deck booths — add a second storey, increasing both material and structural engineering cost.
See our exhibition stall design page for more on how booth type affects layout and design.
Modular vs Custom Exhibition Booth Cost
Modular Booth
- Similar first-build cost to a simple custom stall
- Lower cost per use across repeat exhibitions
- Faster fabrication, less structural labour
- Best value for brands exhibiting several times a year
Custom Stall
- Higher one-off investment for a bespoke design
- No reuse value — rebuilt from scratch each time
- More design and structural freedom
- Best value for a single flagship exhibition
What's Included & What Isn't
Always confirm this line by line when comparing quotes — it's the most common source of "hidden" cost differences between contractors.
Typically Included
- Design and 3D render
- Structure, carpentry and metalwork
- Standard finishes and paint/laminate
- Basic lighting fixtures
- Standard signage and graphics printing
Often Quoted Separately
- Premium materials (specialist laminates, veneers)
- Furniture rental beyond basic seating
- Digital screens and AV equipment
- Transport to venues far from Karachi
- Venue-charged electricity and internet
Materials, printing, lighting and furniture each carry their own cost tier depending on the finish level you choose — our team will walk you through these choices when you request a quote, based on your booth size and brand.
Does Cost Change By City?
Fabrication itself is priced the same regardless of where you're exhibiting, since it happens at our Karachi workshop. What changes by city is transport and logistics — cities further from Karachi, or venues with restricted access windows, can add to the total installed cost. Our Lahore and Islamabad offices help keep this manageable for exhibitions in those regions. See city-specific installation notes on our Karachi, Lahore and Islamabad pages.
Timeline & Urgency
Booking four to six weeks ahead of your event date generally keeps cost predictable, since materials and labour can be planned normally. Rush timelines — confirming a design one or two weeks before an event — can increase cost, as faster sourcing and additional labour are often needed to hit the deadline. See our fabrication timeline for typical lead times.
Cost FAQs
How much does an exhibition stall cost in Pakistan?
A small 10×10 ft booth typically starts from around PKR 94,499, a 20×20 ft booth from around PKR 289,499, and larger custom or double-deck stalls can run into the hundreds of thousands, depending on size, materials, branding and city.
What affects exhibition stall cost the most?
Booth size and footprint have the biggest impact, followed by whether the stall is modular or fully custom, the materials and finishes chosen, how much lighting and digital integration is included, and the city where it's installed.
Is a modular exhibition booth cheaper than a custom one?
The first build is often similar in price to a simple custom stall, but modular booths become more cost-effective across repeat exhibitions since the frame system is reused rather than rebuilt each time.
Does the price include transport and installation?
This depends on the quote. Transport, on-site installation and dismantling are usually quoted alongside fabrication as part of one project, but it's worth confirming what's included before comparing quotes from different contractors.
Does exhibition stall cost vary by city in Pakistan?
Fabrication cost itself doesn't change much by city, but transport distance from our Karachi workshop and local venue access requirements can affect the total installed cost in cities further from Karachi.
Does booking closer to the event date cost more?
Rushed timelines can add cost, since materials may need to be sourced faster and additional labour may be required to meet a tight deadline. Booking four to six weeks ahead generally avoids this.
