The space and its limits
- Floor: 10 ft × 10 ft = 100 sq ft, about 3 m × 3 m.
- Height: 8 ft at the back wall in an inline booth, with 4 ft maximum in the front half toward the aisle (the line-of-sight rule). Corner booths follow the same rule. See booth types and height rules.
- Aisle: everything stays inside your space; the aisle must stay clear.
- Side walls: in a pipe-and-drape space the sides are 3 ft rails; a rented booth can add its own walls within the height rules.
A layout that works
Think in three zones:
- Back wall (the billboard). Your graphic and logo at eye level and above, so people read it from down the aisle. A wall-mounted screen fits here; shelves for products too.
- Middle (the meeting). A small round table with two chairs, or two bar stools at a high table, for real conversations.
- Front (the welcome). A counter at one front corner, never across the whole front, so visitors can step in. A brochure stand at the other corner.
Leave at least a third of the floor open. A booth packed with furniture looks closed.
Typical sizes to plan with
- Reception counter: about 3–4 ft wide, 2 ft deep, 3.5 ft high.
- Round café table: about 2–2.5 ft across, with chairs about 1.8 ft each.
- Bar stool: about 1.5 ft across.
- Brochure stand: about 1.5 ft wide.
- Screens: a 55" screen is about 4 ft wide; a 43" about 3.2 ft. Portrait screens are narrower and taller.
In BoothJet's 3D view you place screens, logos and furniture on the booth and see straight away whether they fit; a wall that is full says so.
What not to put in a 10×10
- A counter across the full front: it blocks the entrance.
- More than four seats: the booth turns into a lounge.
- Tall displays in the front half of an inline booth: over the 4 ft line-of-sight limit.
- Boxes behind the back wall: fire rules forbid storage there.

Questions
How many people fit in a 10×10 booth?
Two staff and three or four visitors at a time, if furniture takes no more than about two thirds of the floor.
How big a TV fits in a 10×10 booth?
A 55" screen on the back wall is the usual choice; a 65" fits on a 10 ft wall too. In an inline booth keep it in the back half and below 8 ft.
How tall can a 10×10 booth be?
8 ft at the back wall; 4 ft in the front half of an inline or corner booth, unless the show allows more.
