Proof and Details

Trade Show Displays, Event Signage and Printing Options

  • Before the event: invitations and outreach

    Build awareness before the doors open with printed invitations, postcards, and pre-show direct mail. Include the date, venue, booth or session location, and a clear reason to visit so recipients know what to do next.

  • At the venue: displays and directions

    Introduce your brand with booth graphics, retractable banners, counter displays, and event signs. Plan each piece around viewing distance, available space, mounting or display method, and venue requirements.

  • For attendees: useful print to take away

    Give visitors something worth keeping, such as brochures, product sheets, event programs, training guides, or presentation handouts. Match the format and quantity to the audience and how the materials will be distributed.

  • Artwork, quantities and event deadlines

    For a practical quote, share sizes, quantities, artwork status, booth or venue details, finishing and display needs, and the required in-hand date. Production, pickup, delivery, and any special handling should be confirmed for the project.

Answers Before You Ask

Trade Show & Event Printing FAQs

  • What should I print for a trade show booth?

    Start with the essentials: a visible booth sign or backdrop, a portable display if space allows, and concise take-home materials such as a brochure or product sheet. Add directional signs, presentation handouts, or pre-show invitations depending on the event format and your goals.

  • Can MSE Printing help with conference and seminar materials?

    Yes. Relevant services include event signs, printed schedules, presentations, training materials, brochures, and information sheets for conferences, workshops, seminars, and other business events.

  • What information do you need for a booth graphics quote?

    Share the type of display, finished dimensions, quantity, venue or booth requirements, preferred materials or hardware, artwork status, and required in-hand date. Photos or measurements of the display area can also help clarify the setup.

  • What file format is best for large-format event printing?

    A print-ready PDF is a useful starting point. Supply artwork at the correct scale, with suitable image resolution and any required bleed or safe margins. Exact file specifications depend on the format and size, so ask for confirmation before finalizing.

  • Can event signage and printed handouts use matching branding?

    Yes. Coordinating logos, colors, typography, and messages across booth graphics, banners, brochures, and presentation materials helps create a consistent event identity. Provide brand guidelines and current artwork with your quote request.

  • Can I use direct mail before and after a trade show?

    Yes. Pre-show mail can invite prospects to visit your booth or schedule a meeting. Post-show mail can reinforce the conversation with a thank-you, product information, or a clear follow-up offer. MSE has a dedicated pre- and post-show direct mail service.

  • How far in advance should I order event printing?

    Order as early as your artwork and event details allow. Timing depends on quantity, materials, display format, proof approval, and the required delivery or pickup date. Share the event date before production so availability and realistic deadlines can be confirmed.

  • Can I request a quote and upload event artwork online?

    Yes. Use Request a Quote to share the event materials, sizes, quantities, and deadline, and Send a File to upload artwork. Include any venue instructions and delivery details that could affect production planning.
