Turn Your Trade Show Booth into the Most Visited Spot on the Floor
A static display waits for attendees to walk over. A photo booth activation draws them in. Guests see something happening, stop, participate, and walk away with branded content they share with their own networks. Your booth becomes the one people remember, the one they tell colleagues about, and the one that generates the longest dwell time on the floor. Lumen has activated trade shows at Bartle Hall, the Kansas City Convention Center, and conference venues across the metro.

Lead Capture Built into the Experience
Every photo delivered digitally captures contact information with consent. Attendees provide their name, email, and company to receive their branded image. Your sales team walks away with a warm lead list of people who had a positive, memorable interaction with your brand. This is lead generation that feels like entertainment, not a form fill.

Kansas City Venues We Know
Bartle Hall Convention Center, Kansas City Convention Center, Overland Park Convention Center, and conference hotels across the metro. We have been active in these spaces before and understand the logistics: load-in access, power requirements, union rules, and venue-specific setup constraints.
