In short

How do you build an event floor plan with AI?

Event floor plan software lets organizers build, price, publish and update an interactive map of booths and vendor spaces for trade shows, expos, festivals and markets. Map D’s AI Floor Plan Assistant drafts layouts from plain-English instructions and helps compare booth count, sellable space, revenue at list price and walking distance. Organizers review the plan before publishing and connecting it to booth sales.

How it works

From floor plan to sold show floor in four steps

  1. 1Build the floor planUpload the layout you already have or describe it to the AI Floor Plan Assistant, then place, number and size booths with snap-to-grid.
  2. 2Set booth types and pricesCreate booth types with their prices and mark booths open, reserved or sold. AI-assisted dynamic pricing can move prices inside the limits you set.
  3. 3Publish and sellPublish the interactive map to your event site. Exhibitors pick a space, check out and get their invoice without a back-and-forth email.
  4. 4Run the showExhibitors manage profiles, staff and assets in their portal, attendees find booths on the live map, and sales reports update as you sell.

Build Your Floor Plan by Asking

Describe the show you want, from the hall and its doors to every numbered booth, and the assistant drafts it on your map in seconds. Keep going in plain English to move, price, check and refine anything, without selecting a single booth.

More ways to keep floor plans moving

01

Drag-and-Drop Booth Placement

Draw, resize, and layer booths in seconds. The Booth Types Editor lets you pre-price premium corners and islands.

02

Exhibitor & Attendee Views

Exhibitors see real-time availability, specs, and cart checkout. Attendees can filter by category and bookmark favorites.

03

Navigation & Wayfinding

Explore exhibitors and booths on the interactive floor plan, then open the full venue map for a complete layout.

04

Live Updates & Safe Team Editing

One person edits a map at a time while teammates view it read-only, so nobody overwrites anyone's work. Version history restores an earlier map when you need it.

05

Website & Mobile Embedding

Copy and paste the embed code to add the map anywhere. The responsive layout fits any CMS, including HubSpot, WordPress, and association AMSs, while keeping visitors on your site longer for more sponsorship visibility.

Pricing

One flat price per event, never per booth

Basic is a flat rate per event, not per booth. Professional and Enterprise are quoted for your events.

Floor Plan Basics for Booth-Based Events

The decisions every trade show, expo, festival or market floor plan starts with. Map D draws the plan to scale; these guides cover the choices behind it.

Booth Sizes

The 10x10 booth is the most common US size, followed by 10x20 inline or corner booths and 20x20 islands or peninsulas. Fewer sizes keep the grid simple and the prices easy to explain.
Booth sizes guide

Aisle Width

Plan on 10 ft aisles, wider at entrances and down the center of large halls, then confirm the minimum with the venue and fire marshal before you sell.
Aisle width guide

Booth Numbering

Give each aisle a hundreds series and number booths from the front, odd on one side and even on the other, so visitors and exhibitors find booth 412 fast.
Booth numbering guide

Layout & Traffic Flow

Start from the space you can actually sell, then place registration, food and stages so the natural path runs past every booth and premium spots sit near anchors.

What is Map D's AI Floor Plan Assistant?

It's an AI assistant built into the Map D floor plan editor. You describe what you want in plain English, like the hall size, the booth layout or prices, and it drafts the change on your map. You can build a floor plan from scratch, edit an existing one by name, compare layout options or check the map for problems.

Does the AI change my floor plan without asking?

No. Every change arrives as a proposal that shows exactly what will be added, moved or repriced, with before-and-after numbers. Nothing changes until you apply it, you can leave out individual changes, and one undo reverses the whole change.

Can the AI work from my venue's existing floor plan?

Yes. Import the venue drawing into the map editor and ask the assistant to trace it. It reads the walls, doors, halls and booth numbers and drafts them onto the map for you to review.

What should an event floor plan include?

An event floor plan should show the space drawn to scale with columns, doors, exits and utilities marked, every booth or vendor space with its number, size and type, the aisles, and fixed areas like registration, food, stages and seminar rooms. In Map D each booth also carries its price and status, so the same plan drives booth sales at a trade show, expo, festival or market.

How wide should aisles be between booths?

Most US exhibit halls plan aisles at 10 ft, with wider main aisles of 15 to 20 ft at entrances and through the center of large shows, and some small events are approved for 8 ft. The venue and the local fire marshal set the actual minimum, so confirm it before you draw rows. Map D draws to scale, so aisle width is a number you set rather than a gap you eyeball.

Can exhibitors reserve or upgrade booths directly on the map?

Yes. Self-service checkout with secure payment lets exhibitors select, pay and receive confirmation in minutes, reducing back-and-forth emails.

Does the floor plan embed on my association website?

Simply copy a code snippet; the map stays mobile-responsive and syncs live with Map D so data never goes stale.

Is filtering and search available for attendees?

Visitors can filter by category, company name, sponsorship level or keywords, making it easy to find the right exhibitors fast.

Will the plan update when a booth sells offline?

Admins can mark booths as sold or held; the map refreshes for all users in real time and logs the transaction.

What integrations are supported?

The floor plan syncs with AMS/CRM, registration and payment gateways via Map D’s open API for seamless data flow.
