These are great, I love the light box and the ability to change the screens with in seconds to make it more user friendly.
Scott CrossUSA
My first time using Backdrop source and so far they have been a pleasure to work with. They have been extremely helpful throughout the process. Definitely give them a chance.
James ShevlinUSA
Wow! My banner added new life to my exhibition. The quality of the print was great and the cool bag that the pieces came in made it even more professional.
Merze Tate ExplorersUSA
I cannot thank you all enough! The backdrop arrived today and the front and back look beautiful! The colors are crisp and rich and look far better than I had expected! I will go nowhere else for future work! Backdropsource is the best! A+A+A+

What accessories can I add to a bare exhibition stand?

A plain backwall gets your brand seen, but it rarely gives visitors a reason to stop. The right exhibition stand accessories fix that by adding light, somewhere to put products, a place for leaflets and a screen for demos. If time and budget are tight, start with what your stand lacks most. That might be lighting for a dim hall, shelving for samples, or a brochure stand so you are not handing out flyers from a box.

This collection covers both standalone add-ons and complete combinations. You can buy a single LED Display Light or a set of Portable Fabric Display Shelves to upgrade an existing frame. If you would rather have shelves, screen and graphic in one footprint, choose an all-in-one piece such as the Exhibition Display Stand with Shelving & TV Mount. Canopy tent owners will also find dedicated shelves and TV racks designed for 3m x 3m fabric canopies.

Can I add lighting to an exhibition stand?

Exhibition halls are often darker than expected, and unlit graphics can look flat beside neighbouring stands. Exhibition display lighting is one of the simplest ways to lift a printed backwall. The LED Display Light adds light to the graphic on an existing display. The Modular Straight Tension Display with Neon Lights builds illumination into the stand itself for a more striking, contemporary look.

For the strongest effect, consider a backlit option. The SEG Led Light Box with Shelves lights the fabric graphic from behind and adds shelving at the same time, so one unit does two jobs. Before you order, check the product page for power requirements and plan for a socket on your pitch. Many venues book electrics separately and ask for your requirements well in advance of build-up day.

What shelving and TV mounts can I add to a stand?

Exhibition shelving puts products at eye level, which makes them far easier to browse than items laid flat on a table. Portable Fabric Display Shelves and the Portable Straight Pop-Up Wall with Shelves keep things simple. The Exhibition Display Showcase with 5-Layer Shelves and the Fabric Tabletop Tower Display with Shelves suit brands with lots of small stock. Counters such as the Rectangular Fabric Display Counter with Acrylic Triple Shelves also work as a welcome desk.

If you show video, a display stand TV mount puts your screen at a comfortable viewing height without a separate floor stand. Options include the EZ Display Stand with Shelves & TV Mount, the TV Mount with Side Table and the Modular Add-On Unit with TV Mount and 2 Shelves. Check the stated screen size, mounting pattern and weight limit on each product page, then measure your own TV so the screen and any stock sit securely all day.

Fashion and retail brands have dedicated options too. The Apparel Display Frame with Dual Hanger Bars, Inclined Apparel Wall and Tension Fabric Stand With Hanging Rail let you hang garments against a branded backdrop. The Retail Peg Board Display Panel suits accessories and small packaged goods, which are easier to browse when hung than when stacked.

Which brochure and tablet stands suit an exhibition?

A tidy brochure stand for exhibitions keeps literature visible and stops leaflets cluttering your counter. The Zig Zag Brochure Stand and Modern S-Shaped Brochure Stand are freestanding and easy to position near the aisle. The Brochure Stand for SEG Frames is designed to work alongside SEG displays. The TechBrochure Pro Stand pairs literature holders with space for a device, which helps when one person is staffing the stand alone.

An exhibition tablet stand is useful for lead capture, product configurators, sign-up forms or a looping demo. The Ipad Stand for Exhibition Displays and the Sleek Tension Fabric Tablet Display hold a device at a natural height for visitors. The Multi-Device Media Display Stand suits teams running several screens at once. Check which tablet sizes each stand accepts before ordering, and keep a charger to hand for long show days.

Which carry case fits my exhibition kit?

A good exhibition carry case protects your kit between shows and makes the trip from car park to hall far less stressful. Wheeled hard cases, such as the M-Size Hard Case with Wheels and L-Size Hard Case with Wheels, roll easily across venue floors. The Plastic Hard Carry Case holds 3m kits and the Oval Hard Carry Case holds 6m kits, so match the case to the size of your stand.

The Podium Hard Case gives rigid protection for podium-style kits, and the Hard Case without Wheels suits lighter loads. The Premium Nylon Transport Bag is a softer, lighter alternative for frames and fabric graphics that do not need a rigid shell. Pack heavier items such as shelves and mounts separately where possible, so nothing presses against printed fabric while it is in transit.

How do I check an accessory will fit my display?

The most common worry is whether an accessory will fit your frame. Products here are listed by type, including SEG popup, tension fabric, arch display, canopy tent and retail display, so start with the category that matches your stand. Then compare dimensions across two or three product pages. If you are still unsure, our team can confirm compatibility with your existing Backdropsource display before you order.

Timing matters too. Production starts within 24 business hours of proof approval, and displays with printed graphics arrive complete with frame, graphic and carry bag. Assembly is tool-free, so you will not need a toolkit on site. Order early enough to allow for delivery before your event, and leave time for a practice build. Unused frames and accessories can be returned within 7 days if an item does not suit.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will exhibition accessories fit my existing pop-up or SEG stand? +
Many will, but fit depends on your stand type and size. Each product is labelled by category, such as SEG popup, tension fabric, arch display or canopy tent. Compare the listed dimensions with your frame. If you own a Backdropsource display and are unsure, contact the team with your model details before ordering so they can confirm compatibility.
What is the best lighting for an exhibition stand? +
It depends on how much impact you want. An add-on such as the LED Display Light is a quick upgrade for an existing backwall. A backlit unit like the SEG Led Light Box with Shelves makes graphics glow from behind and gives the strongest effect in a dim hall. Either way, check the power requirements and book a socket with your venue.
Do exhibition display lights need mains power? +
Check the power details on each lighting product page before you order, then make sure your pitch has a suitable socket. Many exhibition venues require power to be booked in advance through the organiser. Allow for cable runs so leads can be tucked behind the stand rather than trailing across the floor where visitors walk.
Are exhibition shelves strong enough to hold heavy products? +
Shelves are built for display stock, but every unit has its own limits, so check the stated dimensions and load guidance on the product page. Place heavier items on lower shelves for stability, and keep top shelves for lighter samples or signage. For bulky or heavy goods, a counter with acrylic shelves may be a better choice than a wall-mounted shelf.
Can I add shelves and a TV to a canopy tent? +
Yes, there are accessories designed specifically for 3m x 3m fabric canopies. The Snake Display Shelf & TV Rack for Canopy Tent and the L-Shaped Display Shelf & TV Rack for Canopy Tent fit inside the tent. Complete canopy kits that already include shelving and TV racks are also available if you are buying a new tent.
Which carry case do I need for a 3m exhibition display? +
The Plastic Hard Carry Case is designed to hold 3m kits, making it the natural match for a 3m stand. For larger 6m kits, the Oval Hard Carry Case is the better option. If you want something easier to move, the M-Size and L-Size Hard Cases with Wheels roll across venue floors, so check their dimensions against your kit.
Do I need a brochure stand if my stand already has a counter? +
Often, yes. A counter is ideal for conversations and a tablet, but leaflets laid on top quickly look untidy. A freestanding option such as the Zig Zag Brochure Stand can sit near the aisle, so visitors pick up literature without interrupting your team. That keeps the counter clear for demos and lead capture.
