10x20 Booth Rentals in Orlando: Costs, Venues, and What Ships
Orlando's Orange County Convention Center is the second-largest in the U.S. by usable space, and shows here trend toward consumer-facing categories like attractions, healthcare, and golf. Booth styling typically leans warmer and more open than the colder palette common at tech shows. For exhibitors at shows like IAAPA, PGA Show, AAOS, and Surf Expo, a 10x20 booth at 200 square feet is a workable footprint. Pricing in Orlando typically runs $22,300–$34,600 per show on a fully turnkey basis, with freight and Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) show services setting the range. In practice this means OCCC's two-campus layout (North and West halls connected by a tunnel) shapes your booth-traffic estimate and the drayage timing for your category. Some shows split across both halls; others stay in one.
Exhibit Rentals operates from a warehouse in Las Vegas. Transit from our Las Vegas warehouse to OCCC runs 6–8 days. Every booth in our 10x20 inventory is fully pre-assembled and inspected at our facility before it ships to Orlando — so the install at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) is replication of an approved build, not first-time assembly on the show floor. For markets like Orlando where freight distance and labor rules add risk, the warehouse pre-build is what protects your show date.
Is a 10x20 the Right Size for Your Show?
The 10x20 booth works best for a few specific kinds of exhibitor:
- Growing brands stepping up from a 10x10 after 1–2 successful shows
- Companies launching a new product alongside an existing line
- Exhibitors needing two distinct demo stations or a meeting zone
- Teams of 3–5 booth staff who need physical separation to work simultaneously
Every configuration below ships to Orlando fully pre-built and inspected, so what fits on paper is what arrives at Orange County Convention Center (OCCC). If you need a fully enclosed private meeting room, theater seating, or more than five staff working simultaneously, you're closer to a 20x20 island in terms of practical needs.
Working With 200 Square Feet
Aisle patterns at Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) reward layouts that read clearly from a distance. Two hundred square feet allows real division of function. A 10x20 typically supports two demo counters, a 55"–65" monitor wall, an enclosed storage and prep area at one end, a meeting-friendly corner for short qualified conversations, and dedicated lead-capture stations.
At Orlando shows like IAAPA Expo (Orlando-fixed); HIMSS, exhibitors who outgrow the footprint mid-cycle pay for it in redesign, not just rent. What doesn't fit: a fully enclosed meeting room with door, theater seating, hospitality bar with beverage service. The 10x20 is large enough to feel like more space than a 10x10 but small enough that adding too many functions compresses every one of them.
Floor-Plan Choices at 10x20
On the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) floor, footprint decisions are hard to reverse once space is assigned. The 10x20 inline booth gives you 20 linear feet of back wall and two clear engagement zones. The most common split: one side as a passive draw (large brand visual, looping video) and the other as the active demo. Avoid splitting it into two equal halves — visitors won't choose; they'll keep walking.
For Orlando exhibitors, shows like AHR Expo (rotate) set the pace of the calendar. Avoid splitting a 10x20 into two equal halves — visitors won't choose between them; they'll keep walking. One side should clearly lead the experience (brand, hero product, large visual), the other should support it (active demo, lead capture, secondary product). Asymmetry beats symmetry on inline booths.
OCCC traffic varies by show character. IAAPA attendees stop to look at full attraction prototypes; PGA Show attendees move quickly through gear stations. A 10x20 for IAAPA can lean immersive; for PGA Show it should lead with one product up front and let everything else load secondary.

- Round-trip freight from our Las Vegas warehouse to the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) (or other Orlando venue)
- Certified installation and dismantling, fully labor-compliant for your venue

What a 10x20 Costs in Orlando
A turnkey 10x20 trade show booth rental in Orlando typically falls between $22,300 and $34,600 per show. Where you land in that range comes down to materials, monitor and AV count, and how much custom architecture you add.
- $22,300–$28,400: Clean professional build with backlit fabric, standard counters, LED lighting. Right for brands stepping up from a 10x10 with a more developed visual program.
- $28,400–$31,500: Adds monitor walls, upgraded lighting, additional counters, larger graphics, additional brand zones. The mid-market sweet spot.
- $31,500–$34,600: Premium materials, architectural ceiling features, integrated tech and premium furnishings.
That works out to roughly $112–$173 per square foot in Orlando. Orlando pricing is moderate — right-to-work labor in the Southeast keeps install costs reasonable, but freight distance from our Las Vegas warehouse adds to the all-in number relative to West Coast markets. OCCC drayage tiers vary by exhibit category, your project manager will confirm tier and total before crating to avoid post-show invoice surprises.
Getting Into Orlando Venues
Florida is a right-to-work state, which gives more flexibility on labor — but OCCC still requires certified I&D supervision and a current Certificate of Insurance on file. A 10x20 inline moves through this as one pre-built, pre-inspected unit.
Orange County Convention Center labor is comparatively flexible (Florida right-to-work), but OCCC drayage and electrical paperwork still requires advance submission. Hanging sign rigging requires venue approval. Our project managers handle every submission so the booth arrives ready to install. The 10x20 arrives as a single pre-staged inline build, so none of it lands on your team.
Where 10x20 Booths Go Wrong
At 10x20, the usual design errors cost you more. What we see at the Orange County Convention Center (OCCC) shows:
- Splitting the booth into two symmetric halves — visitors won't choose between them; they'll keep walking
- Adding too many functions (demo + meeting + hospitality + storage) so each one is undersized
- Designing without a defined visitor journey from aisle to lead capture
- Treating the back wall as decoration rather than as your three-second billboard
- Underestimating staff — a 10x20 typically needs 3–5 people during show hours
- Not confirming your OCCC hall assignment before finalizing graphics — North and West halls have different ceiling-height envelopes, and a hanging sign sized for one hall may not clear in the other.
Rent or Buy a 10x20?
For exhibitors attending one to three Orlando shows per year, renting almost always beats buying on total cost. A purchased 10x20 runs $36,000–$55,000 upfront, then $2,000–$6,000 per show in storage, refurbishment, and shipping. A rental at $22,300–$34,600 per show eliminates storage, depreciation, and the risk of your exhibit looking dated as your brand evolves. For four or more shows a year with stable branding, the buying math starts to favor purchase — but the one-vendor turnkey model still saves substantial coordination time even then. For Florida-based exhibitors, the rent-vs-buy math is closer than at coastal cities because freight from any East Coast storage to OCCC is reasonable. Still, three-or-fewer shows a year favors rental.
