    Q6: Are Exhibition Stand Builders Experienced with Major Venues in Birmingham?
    A: Absolutely. Leading exhibition stand builders routinely deliver projects at high-profile venues across Birmingham, including the National Exhibition Centre (NEC), International Convention Centre (ICC), and Telford International Centre. With decades of hands-on experience at these iconic locations, you can rely on our team to navigate event requirements and venue logistics with ease.

    We understand the ins and outs of these spaces, ensuring your stand meets all specifications and is installed smoothly, so you can focus on making connections that matter. Whether you’re a first-time exhibitor or a seasoned participant, our venue know-how guarantees your next event will run without a hitch.

    Q7: What are pop up counters and what features do they offer?
    Pop up counters are the go-to solution when you need a portable and professional reception desk or sales counter at your event. They’re designed with convenience in mind – thanks to their clever folding framework and rollable graphics, you can set them up in minutes without any tools.
    Features at a Glance:

    • Seamless Visuals: Many models use tensioned fabric or graphic panels that stretch smoothly across the frame for a wrinkle-free, high-impact appearance, think of the clean look you get with premium brands.
    • Versatility: Pop up counters are lightweight and compact when packed down, making them easy to transport between venues, whether you’re headed to the NEC in Birmingham or a networking event in Leicester.
    • Built-in Storage: Some designs cleverly hide shelving or storage areas inside, keeping your marketing materials handy and your counter clutter-free.
    • Quick Rebranding: Want to update your messaging for the next show? The graphics are fully replaceable, swap panels as your branding evolves.

    In short, pop up counters combine portability, style, and functionality – ideal for busy exhibitors who need an impactful, on-the-go display solution.

    Q8. Can I replace the graphics on my pop up display?
    A: Absolutely. Pop up displays are designed for versatility – once you own the frame, you can update your graphics whenever your branding or messaging changes. Simply swap out the rollable graphic panels for a fresh new look, saving both time and cost. This flexibility makes pop up displays a smart, long-term investment for businesses that need to keep their visuals up to date.
    Q9: Can pop up displays be connected together to create larger exhibition stands?
    A: Yes, you can! Pop up displays aren’t limited to standalone use—many models are designed to connect seamlessly, letting you link multiple units side by side or at right angles. This flexibility means you can expand your display to fill larger spaces or make an even bigger visual impact, all without investing in an entirely new stand. Perfect for brands that want to scale up for busier events, or simply change their layout from show to show. Just mix, match, and link to suit your needs.
    Q10. What makes fabric pop up displays different from standard pop up displays?
    A: Fabric pop up displays stand out thanks to their lightweight textile graphics, which stretch smoothly over the frame for a virtually wrinkle-free finish. Unlike traditional pop up displays that use PVC or laminated panels, fabric versions create a seamless visual with no joins or visible seams—making your branding look crisp from every angle. What’s more, fabric graphics can stay attached to the frame, making setup and breakdown even quicker. If you’re after a display that combines striking aesthetics with convenience, fabric pop ups are a crowd-pleaser at venues.

    Linked pop up exhibition stands are a fantastic solution if you’re looking for a highly adaptable, portable display system that doesn’t skimp on visual impact. These stands use lightweight aluminium frames that fold down into a convenient wheeled case for travel, perfect when you’re making the rounds to events in Birmingham, Leicester, Coventry. At your venue, the frames quickly expand and connect together, allowing you to create everything from compact L-shaped stands to expansive custom backdrops.

    Flexible Size Options for Every Event

    Whether you’ve got a tight space or want to maximize your presence, there’s a linked pop up to fit. Common sizes our clients love include:

    • 1m x 2m
    • 2m x 2m
    • 2m x 4m
    • 3m x 2m
    • 3m x 3m
    • 3m x 5m
    • 3m x 6m
    • 4m x 3m
    • 4m x 4m
    • 4m x 6m

    You can start with a single frame for a modest setup, or combine several to create a show-stopping, seamless display tailored to your stand space, no matter the event size.

    The real trick is in the magnetic graphic panels: swap them out between shows to keep your messaging fresh and relevant, and keep your branding sharp wherever you go. All of this makes linked pop up stands a smart, cost-effective way to get noticed, while enjoying the convenience that today’s exhibitors demand.

    What are pop up counters used for at exhibitions?

    Pop up counters shine as versatile tools for a range of exhibition needs. Their swift setup and professional finish make them a favourite for:

    • Welcoming visitors at your booth as an inviting reception desk
    • Providing a spotless platform for product demos and sampling
    • Acting as a branded information hub for brochures, leaflets, or giveaways
    • Creating a point-of-sale counter for transactions or lead capture during busy events

    Whether you’re showcasing tech gadgets, artisanal foods, or launching the next big thing, pop up counters adapt to your objectives – giving your team a functional, eye-catching focal point that works as hard as you do.

    Q11. How are custom printed graphics attached to pop up displays?
    A: Attaching your graphics is refreshingly simple and designed for convenience. Most pop up display systems, like those commonly seen at events, use magnetic strips or clips. Just align your new graphic panel to the frame, and the magnets snap it securely into place. When it’s time to refresh your messaging or pack down, the graphic panels roll up neatly for storage or travel. This means you can update your display as often as needed, with minimal fuss and zero tools required.

    Pop Up Back Wall Kit Sizes & Options

    When it comes to pop up back wall kits, there’s a size to suit every event space, from cozy shell schemes to sprawling trade show aisles. Here’s a quick rundown of popular configurations and what you can expect:

    • 3 x 1 Pop Up: The most compact option, ideal for tight spots or when you need just enough backdrop to display your brand, starting from around £380 (excluding VAT).
    • 3 x 2 Pop Up: Adds a little more impact and coverage. Suitable for small exhibition pods and local events—generally starting at about £480.
    • 3 x 3 Pop Up: The classic choice, favoured by many exhibitors for its generous display area without being overwhelming. Expect starting prices from roughly £570.
    • 3 x 4 Pop Up: A step up in width for more striking visuals or larger messaging—well-suited for bigger booths, from about £680 and up.
    • 3 x 5 Pop Up: Maximum presence! Ideal for making a statement at major expos or occupying lengthier wall spaces, typically starts from £820.

    All kits include a lightweight frame, vibrant full-colour graphics, lights, and a wheeled carry case for easy transport—making setup a breeze, whether you’re at the Ricoh Arena or setting up in a hotel lobby.

    Q12: Are there accessories available for pop up displays, such as TV mounts?
    A: Yes, there’s a wide range of accessories to help you customise your pop up display and boost engagement at your event. Popular options include TV or monitor mounts (perfect for looping videos or digital demos), branded countertops, integrated lighting, brochure holders, and shelving for products or promotional materials. These enhancements from reliable third-party brands are designed to fit most pop up frames, making it easy to create an interactive and professional stand that fits your needs.

    VRI worked for us on our new shop fitting. The whole job went without a hitch, on time and to a very high standard. I would have no hesitation in recommending them for shopfitting and there was a very sensible price to go with the great work.

    Fabric Pop Up Displays: Versatile Solutions for Any Event

    What are fabric pop up displays?

    Fabric pop up displays are modern exhibition solutions designed for maximum visual impact and effortless setup. These stands use an innovative expanding frame, over which a seamless stretch fabric graphic is secured, creating a sleek, wrinkle-free backdrop in seconds. Perfect for exhibitions, conferences, product launches, or event branding, they combine professional aesthetics with genuine practicality.

    Available sizes and configurations

    Fabric pop up displays come in a range of sizes to suit various venues and display needs, including:

    • Tabletop Options: Compact models, such as 1.5m x 1.5m or 2.3m x 1.5m, are ideal for smaller spaces, reception areas, or tabletop exhibitions where you need to make a big impression from a limited footprint.
    • Medium & Jumbo Stands: For larger spaces or a high-visibility presence, straight and jumbo options (for example, 3m x 3m) provide a stunning full-height backdrop that commands attention—great for busy exhibition halls or high-traffic zones.
    • Shapes: Choose from straight or curved frames to match your branding and booth layout. Straight styles deliver a modern, clean finish, while curved displays add a dynamic touch and help focus attention toward your key messaging.

    With easy-to-change graphics and lightweight portability, fabric pop up displays are the go-to choice for exhibitors who want both style and convenience. Simply update your visuals as your branding evolves, no need to invest in an entirely new stand.
