Roll Up Banner Dubai: Exhibition Stand Merchandise, Sizes and Prices (2026)

Dubai World Trade Centre hosted 401 events in 2025, and its business events alone drew more than 63,000 exhibitors, 78 percent of them international, according to the Dubai Media Office. Every one of those stands competes for a few seconds of attention from passing visitors. This guide covers the roll up banner Dubai exhibitors rely on first, plus the backdrops, flags, table branding and team items that complete a stand, with typical prices from our own range and tips for planning your order.

In practice, most stands start with one or two roll up banners, listed at around AED 176 to 283 each with the stand, then add a fabric table cover, table flags and branded team items such as lanyards. Larger stands add a backdrop or banner flags, while full stand design and build is quoted on request.

What exhibition stand merchandise you actually need

Stand merchandise falls into four groups. Display items tell visitors who you are from across the aisle. Table items make the meeting point look finished. Team items make your staff easy to spot. Giveaways continue the conversation after the visitor leaves.

This guide focuses on display, table and team items. For the giveaway side, including how many items to order per show, see our promotional items Dubai guide.

Roll up banner Dubai options, sizes and prices

A roll up banner (also called a pull up banner or standee) is a printed graphic that retracts into an aluminium base for transport and pulls up onto a pole in seconds. It is the most portable display you can buy, and it works at exhibitions, conferences, lobbies and in store promotions.

Roll up banner sizes

Roll up banners are typically about 200 cm tall, which puts your logo above the heads of a crowd. Widths of 85 cm and 100 cm are the most common, and wider formats for larger stands can be quoted on request. Our portable roll up banner is listed at a 200 cm height in a range of colours. Tell us your stand size and we will confirm the best width.

Materials and print

For a roll up banner Dubai exhibitors can reuse all season, choose a solid base. Our roll ups are printed on tear resistant vinyl or fabric, and the retractable cassette protects the graphic between events. The premium roll up banner uses a curl resistant material on an aluminium stand, built for repeated use at show after show. Because the base is reusable, many companies keep the stand and simply reprint the graphic when a campaign changes.

Backdrops, flags and table branding

Once the roll ups are in place, these items make a stand look complete and give visitors a reason to stop for a photo.

• Backdrops. A custom hanging backdrop banner covers the back wall of a stand or stage in crease resistant fabric. A repeat logo backdrop puts your brand in every photo at launches, award nights and media walls.
• Advertising banner flags. Weather resistant fabric flags on stable bases for stand corners, entrances and outdoor activations.
• Table covers. A branded fabric table cover runner hides storage under the counter and looks sharper than a plain cloth. Dubai has banned single use plastic table covers, and Dubai Municipality says its policy promotes multi use materials, so a reusable fabric cover fits the rules and your sustainability message.
• Table flags, foam boards and tent cards. Small printed pieces for menus, QR codes, product facts and event schedules.

Team items that make your stand easy to find

Visitors look for people as much as logos. Branded team items help your staff stand out in a busy hall:

• Lanyards and badges. Matching lanyards in your brand colour, covered in our custom lanyards Dubai guide.
• LED name badges. A rechargeable LED name badge scrolls a name or offer across the chest and is listed at around AED 45.
• Branded apparel. Matching polos, shirts or caps so every team member is recognisable from the aisle.
• Pens for every visitor. A printed pen is the cheapest way to leave your name on a visitor’s desk, as our promotional pens Dubai guide explains.

Roll up banner design tips

Visitors glance at a roll up banner while walking past, often from several metres away. Design it for that moment.

• Put the logo at eye level. The top third of the banner is what people see over the crowd.
• Use one clear message. Say what you do in a few words rather than listing every service.
• Keep the bottom clear. Tables, boxes and visitors hide the lower part of the banner, so do not put key text there.
• Add a QR code. Link it to a landing page, catalogue or WhatsApp so interest turns into a lead.
• Send print ready artwork. High resolution or vector files give the sharpest print, and our design team can create the layout for free.

When to order your exhibition merchandise

Dubai’s busiest show months fill print schedules quickly, so check your dates on the Dubai World Trade Centre events calendar and work back from the build day.

1. Six weeks out. Confirm your stand size and list every display, table and team item.
2. Four weeks out. Send logos and artwork, and approve the free design.
3. Production. Production time depends on the item, quantity and branding method, so leave a buffer before the build day, and we confirm your timeline with your quote.
4. After the show. Keep the roll up stands and backdrop frames for the next event and reprint only what changes.

Minimum order quantities vary by product, and ordering 100 pieces or more unlocks bulk order pricing of up to 60% off on items such as lanyards, pens and giveaways.
