Why exhibitors build with us at the BDC.

01
London based

Our London studio is our main base, close to Islington for deliveries, build-up and support.
02
London shows we know

We've built at ExCeL and Olympia for shows like World Travel Market, Big Data LDN and Decorex.
03
Built for a historic hall

The BDC is a Victorian hall, so we plan access, loads and build-up around it from day one.
04
One team, start to finish

Design, graphics, joinery, AV and installation from one team, with project management from the first brief to breakdown.

Exhibiting at the Business Design Centre.

The Business Design Centre opened in 1862 as the Agricultural Hall, later the Royal Agricultural Hall. After standing empty from the Second World War, it reopened as the Business Design Centre in 1986. Its main exhibition hall covers 6,000 m², and it hosts the London Art Fair each year.

The venue sits between Upper Street and Liverpool Road in Islington, London N1 0QH.

Getting there

Angel is the nearest Underground station, with Highbury & Islington and King’s Cross St Pancras also close by.

Before you build

Each show sets its own stand heights, rules and deadlines in its exhibitor manual. Custom and two-storey stands usually need plans and structural calculations approved well before build-up.
Build-up and breakdown times are set by the organiser, so the stand has to be designed to go up and come down in the time allowed.
Materials have to meet the fire safety standards set for the show, with certificates to prove it.
