In a crowded exhibit hall, the brands that get noticed are the ones that light up. Our LED backlit trade show displays use advanced lighting grids behind dye-sublimation-printed fabric to deliver bright, even illumination with vivid, edge-to-edge graphics that pop from across the show floor.
Backlit technology has come a long way from the heavy, hot halogen setups of the past. Today’s LED systems are lightweight, energy-efficient, and cool enough to run a full 14-hour show day without breaking a sweat. The displays use a pillowcase-style fabric graphic that slides over a lightweight aluminum frame, and zips closed at the bottom for a smooth, seamless look. Single and double-sided options are available, and swapping graphics between shows is quick and simple.
We carry backlit solutions for virtually every booth size and layout. If you’re working with a standard 10×10 booth, a backlit Hop Up display is one of our most popular options, as it sets up fast and delivers serious visual impact on a budget. Exhibitors with a 10×20 space or 10×30 layout can pair multiple backlit walls or combine them with backlit counters for a cohesive, illuminated setup. For large-format 20×20 island exhibits, our backlit island kits and Luminous 20ft walls create the kind of commanding presence that draws traffic from every aisle. Even tabletop displays can benefit from smaller lightbox units that add a premium feel to a compact footprint.
Backlit displays also pair well with the rest of your booth. Add a tower display for extra height and sightlines, mount a hanging sign overhead to pull attendees in from a distance, or tie the look together with modular display components and accessories like trade show flooring and portable counters. Whether you’re building your first illuminated booth or upgrading an existing setup, our team can create a free 3D rendering with your artwork so you know exactly what to expect before it ships.
Hop Up backlit trade show displays, hands down, are our most popular floor model we offer. Due to LED technology evolving so quickly it now extends into Hanging Backlit displays, and the new Wavelight Air Backlit inflatable counters. Hop Up backlit displays are a true and proven contender.
a little history about trade show displays, we keep talking about the evolution of LED technology. Whether you’re new to expo marketing or a seasoned trade show exhibit product manager then you can attest that the new LED curtain and edge lights have made strides in the past few years as the market shifted from heavy-weight and melting hot halogen lights.
How the Backlit LED Display Works
This LED backlit tension fabric display is ideal for all exhibitors who want the backlit design to stand out in front of the crowd! The frame is composed of lightweight aluminum poles attached with durable cords, making your 10ft straight pop up frame a breeze. After your light-weight frame is assembled, simply attach the lights to the perimeter of the booth, connect all the power supplies and lights together, and then slide on the pillowcase-like graphic over the frame and zip it closed at the bottom. The zipper is hidden from view and tightens up the stretched fabric graphic for a smooth image. Single or double-sided available, if you want to place graphics on both sides.
In a crowded event hall, visibility is everything. Make your brand shine with our brilliant LED backlit trade show displays. At Trade Show Display Depot, we harness the power of light to make your graphics pop with stunning vibrancy and clarity. An illuminated display acts as a beacon on the show floor, ensuring your conference booth display draws the eyes of attendees from every corner of the room. Create a high-end, professional look that simply cannot be ignored.
