In short
A 10 × 6 m stand (60 m²) offers a generous frontage and room for one meeting room, several demos and a reception. Most often it is a peninsula or a corner. Keep demos on the aisle, and put the room and store along the rear so that the frontage stays active.

Layout ideas
- Rear block: meeting room and store along the back, with an open floor in front.
- Two entrances: a welcome at each aisle, with a central lounge.
- Sweeping back wall: one long curve that carries the brand and hides the store.
By number of open sides
| Stand type | How it changes the layout |
|---|---|
| Row (one open side) | The usual type at this size: one front, brand on the back wall. |
| Corner (two open sides) | Two entrances; put the tallest element where the closed walls meet. |
| Peninsula (three open sides) | Back wall for storage and meeting space; activity on three faces. |
| Island (four open sides) | No back wall: a central core or feature with activity on every face. |
See exhibition stand types for what each type means and how organisers classify them.
Things specific to 10 × 6 m
A long rear wall is a good home for a curved feature, because a 6 m depth can spare the bulge.
Sixty square metres is where a rear block of room and store is worth pricing as its own line.
Frequently asked questions

One closed room for four to six people.
Put it into practice
Design your trade show booth in 3D before you brief the builder
Design a trade show booth in 3D at your exact booth size, from a 10x10 inline to a 20x20 island, with renders and drawings for your builder.
Guidance here reflects common practice. Venues, organisers and countries set their own rules: always check the exhibitor manual and work with a qualified stand builder and engineer for structures.
