Unusual Booth Ideas for Fairs and Festivals

When first thinking about selling at fairs and festivals, people come up with all sorts of booth ideas. And why not – it is a great opportunity to let your imagination run riot and create a booth that is out of this world.

The important thing, however, is to make sure that your ideas are practical and feasible. It is no good having a great idea if you cannot put it into practice. The main consideration is to make people want to approach your booth.

The important thing to consider, whether you have just a table display or a walk-in or covered booth, is the overall effect your booth will have. One way to do this is with color. Some interesting booth ideas are these: pick two effective contrasting colors and make sure that your booth is draped in these colors only, or that your table is covered in these colors.

Alternatively, make your booth as colorful and fun as possible so that it stands out. This all depends on what you are selling, of course. If, for example, you are selling beautiful jewelry, you may want to go for the classier two-color scheme. If you are selling kiddies’ goods and toys, however, the colorful option is much more appropriate and attractive to children.

Take as many opportunities as you can to display your goods where the public will see them. If that means buying a long pole and standing it at the corner of your booth space with one of the stuffed bears you are selling perched on top of it, then do it. Come up with inventive booth ideas that will show off your products, and attract the public to come and take a closer look.

If you want to get customers, do not be afraid of looking silly. People love things that make them laugh, so if you can do this you, will attract more of them.

Here are a few crazy examples: if you are selling sunglasses or watches or similar, display these on one of those battery-operated dogs that walk and bark; if you are selling clothing of some kind, even underwear or nightwear, put some on over your own clothes; if you are selling games or something similar, have a friend with you and play with them. There are all sorts of ways you can try to make your booth the center of attention with just a little thought.

When it comes to booth ideas, you also need to consider the layout of your booth. Always have the most attractive goods at the front, as these are what the public will see first. Depending on what you are selling, you may want to consider putting popular items at the back of your display so that visitors will be forced to look at other items first before their eye reaches what they are actually looking for.

Make your layout interesting. If it is just a table, try to have various displays of different heights to make people adjust their gaze. As mentioned above, the more attractive, unusual or funny your booth appears, the more clients will take a closer look. Once they start looking, they will buy.
