1. Walk the Plank VR

Virtual reality experiences are the new means of entertainment for the latest generation. Nevertheless, all guests will enjoy this interactive game because it is super easy yet thrilling. Walk The Plank places you 80 stories above ground. As you stand on a skyscraper, you have to keep your balance. See how long each guest can go without plummeting to the ground below. Skip the stratosphere and introduce people to this equally exciting experience (without the fear) at your next Vegas trade show booth.  

2. Batak Pro Competition

Batak Pro is the perfect setup for those who want to test their reflexes. How fast do you think you really can go when the light flashes your way? Twelve LEDs in different arrangements will light up in different patterns, depending on which game mode you’re in. Let your attendees challenge themselves and see just how well they can do against the timer. Keep in mind that this Vegas trade show game needs a little more space than other activations. However, you can use Batak Pro both indoors and outdoors for a fun-filled experience all year long. Luckily, you don’t have to worry about setting up this game as Trade Show Labs takes care of everything. Contact our pros today for details. 

3. F1 VR Race Simulator

Racing games have been around forever, but the F1 VR Racing Simulator takes the experience to an entirely new level. With an adjustable seat to ensure that guests are absolutely comfortable, they can push the pedal to the floor and grab the steering wheel for a fun race. Personal branding can make this simulator stand out, so gamers remember your company logo, colors, products, and services. With this Vegas trade show idea, you can make a leaderboard and create prize giveaways. Trade show guests will keep coming back for more and take note of your products and services in the meantime. 

4. Beat Saber Competition

Beat Saber is one of the popular Vegas trade show ideas available from Trade Show Labs. Guests love the mixture of their favorite songs with sweet VR graphics. It can be tricky to master this interactive game, but your attendees won’t stop until they do! You give your guests wands to hold in each hand. They wear goggles and try to ‘hit’ the ‘beats’ as they scroll across the screen. These obstacles start slow but eventually start flying at you. If you time the hit correctly, you will play the song, but if you miss too many times, then game over. Challenge your guests to finish an entire song -- it’s more complicated than it sounds. This Vegas trade show idea doesn’t take up hardly any space, and you only need a few pieces of equipment from Trade Show Labs. 

5. Are You Smarter Than An AI Bot?

Ready for a trivia night? You won’t have to worry about an emcee hosting the entire thing and waiting to have enough people to make teams. Are You Smarter Than An AI Robot allows you to challenge your booth guests into a battle of wits against an artificial intelligence trying to get the answers right as quickly as possible? Do your attendees want to play a battle of speed, or are they more interested in getting the correct answers? Either way, Are You Smarter Than An AI Robot is easy to set up, doesn’t require a lot of equipment, and only needs a small space. You can trust Trade Show Labs to provide the equipment and display everything perfectly.

6. TopGolf Trade Show Simulator

It’s too hot in Vegas to play golf all day long. Bring the fun indoors with this innovative TopGolf Simulator. The attendees can enjoy stress-free entertainment without worrying about broken tees or lost golf balls. The TopGolf Simulator provides an interactive experience without sweating outside, yelling fore, or searching for your ball with embarrassment. Ask Trade Show Labs about this engaging Vegas trade show game. 

7. Trade show Jeopardy Game Show

Our take on Jeopardy adds a unique element to the popular game show. Specifically designed for trade show booths, our Jeopardy board enables you to recreate the excitement of the show in your event space. We provide the frame, individual game screens, and can even assist with question creation. You can customize the questions to highlight your products, marketing campaigns, industry, or even company-specific themes to engage your guests.

8. Mini-Drone Racing Challenge

Our drone challenge is designed to provide a truly unique trade show experience that your guests won't soon forget. With safety as our top priority, attendees will have the chance to pilot a drone from outside a secure netted enclosure. Inside the enclosure, we can set up various challenges, such as accuracy tests and obstacle courses, to make the experience even more exciting. This event is perfect for driving engagement and encouraging friendly competition, which can lead to repeat visitors and a distinctive visual presence for your brand.

9. Social Media Vending Machine

Adding a social media vending machine to your event is an awesome way to create buzz for your brand and encourage interactions that boost your social media presence. Rather than using cash, attendees can purchase vending machine items by posting to their social accounts using a designated hashtag or filling out a contact form. The vending machine can be stocked with your company's products, discount codes, gift cards, or even trade show merchandise. The possibilities are endless, so get creative!

10. Branded Claw Machine

Bring the nostalgic thrill of the arcade straight to your booth with a fully branded claw machine. Attendees will be drawn in by the chance to test their skills and win prizes, creating a buzz that attracts even more visitors. Customize the machine's exterior with your company's branding and fill it with promotional items, exclusive offers, or fun giveaways. It's an engaging way to increase foot traffic, encourage interaction, and leave a lasting impression on potential clients.​

11. VR Meditation Heart Rate Challenge

Help attendees find their inner calm—while sparking a little friendly competition. The VR Meditation HR Challenge invites guests to step into a serene virtual world, strap on a headset, and slow their heart rate as much as possible. The lower their heart rate, the higher their score. It’s unexpected, attention-grabbing, and leaves people saying, “Wait… that was at a trade show?” Bonus: it aligns your brand with wellness, innovation, and unforgettable experiences

12. SwagBot Print - 3D Printed Swag

Transform your booth into a buzzworthy destination with SwagBot Print. This interactive experience features live 3D printing of custom-branded swag items, captivating attendees as they watch their personalized giveaways come to life. Enhance engagement further with the 3D Pen Swag Customization Station, where visitors can add their unique touch to the items. It's a tech-forward, hands-on activity that not only draws a crowd but also leaves a lasting impression, making your brand the talk of the trade show.​

13. Top Gun VR Flight Simulator

Take your booth to new heights with the VR Flight Simulator—an exhilarating experience that lets attendees pilot a private plane through the skies. With immersive visuals and realistic controls, guests don the headset and take off for a breathtaking journey above it all.

There’s something universally awe-inspiring about flight, and this experience captures it perfectly. From the moment attendees step in, they’re no longer at a trade show—they’re soaring through clouds. With a dedicated event manager guiding the way, this activation draws a crowd, sparks conversations, and gives your brand serious lift.

14. MLB Home Run Derby VR

Step up to the plate and bring the ballpark to your booth with the VR Baseball Home Run Challenge. Attendees grab a virtual bat, square up, and take a swing as they aim to blast motion-tracked home runs out of the digital park.

Baseball is nostalgia. It’s energy. It’s America’s pastime—reimagined in virtual reality. This immersive activation turns your booth into a home run destination, attracting both players and onlookers who can’t resist watching the action. Whether they’re stepping into the batter’s box or cheering from the sidelines, everyone gets caught up in the fun.
