Charging furniture keeps attendees in your booth. For most trade show booths, a powered bar-height table is the best single charging piece: it fits six people in a 72 by 26 inch footprint and keeps conversations standing and short. Choose powered sofas and chairs when you want longer, seated meetings, such as in island booths and sponsor lounges. Every piece in our Spark charging collection plugs into one standard outlet or floor power drop.

Suggested Setups by Booth Size
- 10×10 booth: one Spark Communal Bar Table with four stools, or a loveseat and a coffee cube.
- 10×20 booth: a communal bar table plus a loveseat, one armchair and a coffee cube.
- Island booth or sponsor lounge: a sofa, two armchairs and a coffee table, plus a communal bar table at the edge for quick stops.
Planning Power
Each powered piece plugs into a standard outlet, so order one power drop per piece, or place pieces within reach of a drop and a heavy-duty power strip. On show floors, electrical is ordered through the show’s electrical contractor, so add it to your exhibitor order early. Tape down cords along booth edges to keep walkways clear.
Why Charging Furniture Works
Attendees who sit down to charge stay in your booth for several minutes, which gives staff time to start a conversation. Brand the table tops, and place charging seats near the back of the booth so guests walk past your demo or display to reach them.
Choosing Charging Furniture by Booth Size
Charging furniture works in almost any booth, but the right piece depends on how much room you have and how long you want visitors to stay.
- 10×10 booth: a Spark Coffee Cube (24 in square, 16 in high) beside two chairs, or a Spark Communal Bar Table if you want standing conversations.
- 10×20 booth: a Spark Power-Up Loveseat or two Spark armchairs with a Spark Coffee Table in front. Visitors sit, charge and talk.
- 20×20 island: a full charging lounge with a Spark sofa, armchairs and coffee table, plus a Spark Communal Bar Table near the aisle to pull people in.
- Lobbies and registration areas: a Charging Locker Tower with eight lockable compartments lets guests leave a phone to charge and walk away.
Why charging furniture increases dwell time
A visitor who is charging a phone has a reason to stay put. That gives your staff time to start a conversation that a quick walk-by never allows.
Power and placement
Powered pieces need a power source. Order electrical service from the show early and place charging furniture near the drop. Keep cables along the edges of the booth to avoid trip hazards; the OSHA walking-working surfaces guidance covers keeping walkways clear.
Branding
Many Spark pieces have brandable surfaces, and the Charging Locker Tower takes a full custom wrap, so charging furniture can double as signage.
