I'm doing my first large indoor show this fall. The show info says that side barriers are required. I'm wondering if anyone can clear up for me what exactly is meant by "side barriers."

Also, if anyone has any advice, things to do or not to do for setting up indoor booths, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I am assuming that they mean walls (like propanels) or pipe and drape on each side of your booth to separate your booth from the next booth. 

Actually in some facilities, they can also mean pipe and drapes that only go up about 36 inches, which would require you to have your own walls so the people looking at your work don't see your neighbors work.



If you do have your own walls and so do your neighbors, you can mutually agree to take out the pipe and drapes separating your booths so that you each gain a few inches.

In rereading your post, it sounds like they want you to supply your own walls.

I have done the indoor show just fine with the trimlime tent and mesh walls. Just dont put the canopy top on. I have seen similar with easy up but didn't look as nice.
Some of the indoor shows I have done , they usually like for the booths to have 8 ft sidewalls but not all circumstances. I agree with Diane, it just means they want you to have some kind of border to separate you from the booths on either or both side of you.
