Venue planning

The Crane Bay

The Crane Bay is treated here as a real venue environment formed by access, service deadlines, labor timing, freight flow, and show-site control.

The bay publicly lists 18,000 square feet of meeting or event space, which makes room flow, staffing, and technical timing central to the schedule.

What we focus on

  • Review the Crane Bay rules, service deadlines, and loading conditions before approving the final booth and staffing plan.
  • Sequence install so flooring, structure, graphics, lighting, and testing do not collide on the floor.
  • Map strike around outbound paperwork, return freight, and asset recovery before the hall closes.

Common questions

How does labor work in Indianapolis?

It runs venue by venue.

How much lead time is ideal?

Custom builds run best with 16 to 20 weeks of lead time. Rentals take 8 to 12 weeks.

What information kicks off a project?

The show, the venue, the booth number, the dates, and a target budget range. From those, an initial scope and a realistic cost come back within a few days.
