The budget can vary widely based on size, materials, and technology, but for a quality medium-sized custom stand (e.g., 6m x 4m) in Dubai, a realistic starting range is typically AED 45,000 to AED 90,000. The key is to work with a transparent exhibition stand designer Dubai partner who provides a detailed quote upfront. Hidden costs often come from last-minute changes, electrical hookups, or special venue permits. My advice is to invest in good design and structure—it can be reused for 3-4 events, making the long-term ROI much better than a cheap, disposable option
