Focus 2026 has height restrictions based on booth type—inline booths are generally limited to 8 feet, while island booths can extend higher with prior approval. We are well-versed in these guidelines and design your booth to the maximum permitted height from the outset, eliminating the need for last-minute changes on move-in day.

Frequently Asked Questions
We manage the entire process end to end. Your booth is shipped to the advanced warehouse before the deadline, with all freight coordination handled by our team. If the advance window is missed, we arrange direct-to-show shipping, which involves tighter timelines and may incur higher material handling and installation costs—but we take care of it seamlessly. Our commitment is simple: your booth will be show-ready before you arrive, with no unexpected charges.
California is not a right-to-work state, and trade shows follow specific union jurisdiction rules that determine who can perform certain tasks on-site. We handle all aspects of union labor coordination—including scheduling, supervision, and ensuring compliance with venue regulations. You don’t need to navigate San Diego’s rules; we’ve already got it covered.

Focus draws finance and investment professionals, much like Money 20/20 and AFP. Exhibitors who participate in all three can benefit from repeated exposure to the same buyer audience, strengthening brand recall throughout the year. We work with exhibitors across the full finance show calendar, helping you build a strategy that maximizes your booth investment by reusing and adapting it across multiple events instead of treating each show as a separate expense.
