Built for art fairs and design fairs
An interactive floor plan for every gallery, stand and section
Put every gallery, stand, section and talk on one searchable map, sell stands online, and let collectors plan their route before the VIP preview opens.
What the map gives you
Collectors plan their route before the preview
Sections, talks and programs shown where they happen
Stand applications, payments and gallery profiles in one place
The problem
Why art fair maps break down
At an art fair, location shapes how a gallery does, and the tools most fairs use don't keep up with that.
The floor plan is a printed hierarchy that keeps changing
Late withdrawals, swapped stands and reworked sections mean the printed guide and the PDF online are both wrong by the time the VIP preview opens.
Collectors run out of time in the first hours
VIP and preview visitors have limited time, and when they can't find the galleries they came for quickly, smaller galleries and upper floors miss out on traffic.
Sections and programs get lost
Emerging-gallery sections, solo presentations, editions and design areas, and the talks program often sit at the back of the hall or on another level, and visitors never find them.
Gallery information arrives by email, in pieces
Logos, artist lists and stand descriptions trickle in through email threads, so the exhibitor list on the website and the map never quite match.
What changes with ExpoFP
The floor plan becomes a live map that your team, your galleries and your visitors all use.
One map, always current
Change a stand or section in the browser and the public map updates instantly, so collectors at the preview see the same layout your team does.
Collectors arrive with a plan
Visitors search by gallery, stand number or section, bookmark the galleries they want to see, and follow a route through the hall.
Every section gets found
Sections are color-coded and filterable, and guided tours can lead visitors through an emerging-gallery section or a design route instead of leaving them to discover it.
Galleries manage their own listing
Each gallery updates its own logo, description and contacts through a personal link, and you approve before it goes live.
Core features
FP Designer for stands and sections
Drag, drop, merge and resize stands in the browser to build your main section, emerging-gallery sections, editions and design areas, lounges and the talks stage. You can also upload your existing floor plan and the ExpoFP team will build the map for you.
Stand sales and applications on the map
Galleries see live availability, then reserve or buy their stand by credit card directly on the map, and you approve and track every reservation in one place. You decide which stands open for direct booking and which you place yourself after selection.
Sponsorship and featured placement
Sell sponsored listings, featured placements, logos on stands, banner ads and sponsorship packages for partners such as banks, auction houses or champagne bars. Booth extras let you sell add-ons like extra walls or lighting with the stand.
Search, filters and favorites for collectors
Visitors search by gallery, stand or category and filter by section, then bookmark the stands they want to see. The map opens in any mobile browser with no app download and no sign-in, so it's easy to send in a VIP invitation.
Programs, talks and guided tours
Import the talks and performance program from Excel or through the API so each session sits in its room or on its stage. Guided tours can walk visitors along a curated route, a sponsor trail or a first-time-visitor tour.
Wayfinding, languages and analytics
Turn-by-turn routes cover multiple floors and buildings, and the area map shows entrances, parking, hotels and transport. Floor plans are available in many languages, including English, Chinese, Japanese, German, French, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Korean, which helps fairs with international collectors. Analytics show searches, stand views and routes, so you can show each gallery what interest its stand got.
Who uses it
- Boutique Design New York 2025, the design trade fair for hospitality interiors, is an ExpoFP client. Exhibitors showing furniture, lighting, textiles and artwork are mapped on one interactive floor plan.
- SXSW Flatstock 2026, the poster art exhibition at SXSW, is an ExpoFP client. Poster artists' stands sit on a map that visitors can search.
