Ballroom-sized roofing booths for Carolinas Roofing Expo 2027 in Greenville
We build compact displays that put membrane, metal panel and safety samples in a Carolinas contractor's hands across a ballroom booth. CRSMCA's draft agenda gives one set-up day, Tuesday, March 16, so everything ships packed to carry through the Hyatt Regency's service door.
- Expo Mar 16–17, 2027
- 89 booths, Regency Ballroom
- Member booths from $1,200
What makes Carolinas Roofing Expo different, and how we build for it
This is the Carolinas' own roofing show, run by CRSMCA, the contractor association for North and South Carolina since 1943 and an NRCA affiliate.The expo, long known as the Carolinas Mid-Winter Roofing Expo, has run for more than 60 years and moved from the Durham Convention Center in 2026 to the Hyatt Regency Greenville for 2027. It is compact on purpose: one evening reception on the floor, one full trade show day with Brew, Browse & Breakfast, Exhibitor Hands-On Demonstrations and an afternoon Social with Industry Professionals, then an education morning. Contractor companies pay $100 for unlimited staff, so whole crews walk the Regency Ballroom.
Pricing, lead times and warranty terms they can compare in one walk of 89 booths, plus a rep who covers their part of the Carolinas.
Tools, fasteners and fall-protection gear they can pick up and try, since contractor companies register every employee for one $100 fee.
Assembly details, code and spec data and someone who can answer a technical question during the 10:30 a.m. or 2 p.m. demonstration slots.

Two shops and one project manager for Carolinas Roofing Expo
For Carolinas Roofing Expo, we build in our own shop in Fishkill, NY, and at our Las Vegas hub, ship to the Hyatt Regency Greenville, and put our own project manager on the floor with vetted local labor for the install. Every Carolinas Roofing Expo build runs a predictable 30 to 45 days and gets a pre-show QA, with secure storage after.
Your team arrives at Carolinas Roofing Expo to a lit, stocked booth. You just show up.
New at Carolinas Roofing Expo 2027
- Moves to the Hyatt Regency Greenville
After the 2026 expo at the Durham Convention Center, CRSMCA takes the 2027 show to the Hyatt Regency Greenville in South Carolina, with the trade show, seminars and receptions in one hotel. Plan the display for hotel ceiling heights and freight doors rather than a convention hall dock. source
- A new name and a March date
The event now runs as the Carolinas Roofing Expo instead of the Carolinas Mid-Winter Roofing Expo, and shifts from mid-February to March 16 to 18, 2027. Exhibit hours are Tuesday evening, March 16, plus Wednesday, March 17, so most selling happens in one full day. source
- Higher booth rates for 2027
Member booths start at $1,200 and non-member booths at $2,000 for 2027, up from $900 and $1,500 on the 2026 event page. The first booth still includes four attendant registrations. source
Inside Carolinas Roofing Expo 2027
Rules that shape your Carolinas Roofing Expo booth
The first booth purchase includes four attendant registrations, and every other person in your booth must register, because CRSMCA requires a registration for every individual at the 2027 expo. We plan staffing and lounge seating for the four you get.
CRSMCA provides freight and electrical services once your exhibitor registration is secured, rather than on an open service kit. We order both the day your booth is confirmed so the Regency Ballroom booth is powered for the Tuesday reception.
CRSMCA's draft 2027 agenda gives tentative exhibitor set-up Tuesday, March 16 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and dismantle Thursday, March 18 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. We build a kit that installs in hours and pack it out Thursday morning.
Non-exhibiting manufacturers, distributors and suppliers pay $1,500 per company of up to four or $400 per person in 2027. If your sales team plans to work the Regency Ballroom, a booth with four included registrations is the better buy, and we build it.
Programs worth planning for
Two slots on the March 17, 2027 trade show day, at 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. on CRSMCA's draft agenda, when contractors come to the floor to see products worked by hand.
Held with the CRA Associate Membership Meeting at 8:30 a.m. on March 18, 2027, before dismantle ends: where returning exhibitors look ahead to booth selection for 2028.
The 8 to 9 a.m. breakfast on the trade show floor on March 17, 2027, which brings contractors into the aisles before the first education session.
An optional badge-scanning service CRSMCA offers exhibitors for 2027; early registrants also receive an advance attendee list, and all attendees get the full list after the show.
A contractor-heavy regional roofing expo for North and South Carolina; choose it over the International Roofing Expo when your reps cover Carolinas contractors and want a full day with them for a $1,200 member booth rather than a national launch.

Popular booth sizes at Carolinas Roofing Expo
CRSMCA sells the Carolinas Roofing Expo by the numbered booth in a hotel ballroom, 89 of them on the 2027 Regency Ballroom plan, and does not publish booth dimensions. Exhibitors bring a backwall, a table and samples. We build to that: a light printed backwall, a sample counter and lighting, sized once CRSMCA confirms your booth.
Only if CRSMCA assigns you two adjoining booths: a 20-foot printed wall with a shingle or panel mock-up at one end and a sample counter at the other.

A global elevator manufacturer’s interactive booth: real product showcases, digital simulations and a floor plan that guided visitors from the first step to the last.
KLEEMANN needed visitors to understand a building system by touching real product; roofing suppliers in a Greenville ballroom face the same job at a smaller scale.

04 Designing for roofing material, safety, tool and equipment suppliers at Carolinas Roofing Expo
Four things we get right for Carolinas Roofing Expo exhibitors
1One set-up day at the Hyatt
CRSMCA's draft agenda gives exhibitors Tuesday, March 16, 8 a.m. until 5 p.m., to set up, with the floor opening for the Expo Kickoff Reception at 5. We design a kit two people can stand up in an hour: tension-fabric wall, counter case and clip-on lights.
2Samples sized for a ballroom
Booths in the Regency Ballroom sit in tight back-to-back rows, booths 1 to 34 and 39 to 72. A full roof mock-up does not fit, so we build a sloped sample board with shingle, underlayment and flashing layers that a contractor can lift and flex.
3Built for the demo slots
The 2027 agenda sets Exhibitor Hands-On Demonstrations at 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. on March 17. We leave a clear work surface for a seam tool or fastener gun and place it where the aisle can watch without blocking your neighbor.
4Graphics that name the territory
Attendees here are Carolinas contractors who buy through local distributors. Your wall should say which branches stock you in North and South Carolina and who the rep is, with a QR code to the dealer locator rather than a national tagline.
Concept rendering
Your proposal for Carolinas Roofing Expo includes a rendering like this one
The 3D view shows layout, graphics, lighting and product positions before we cut a panel, and we revise it until the Carolinas Roofing Expo booth is right. This one is a Purple concept for Italica.

Where you could be at Carolinas Roofing Expo 2027
The 2027 Carolinas Roofing Expo fits in one room: CRSMCA's floor plan puts 89 numbered booths in the Hyatt Regency Greenville's Regency Ballroom, with the entrance on the ballroom's long side.
Center rows, booths 1–34 and 39–72
Two back-to-back double rows of 17 booths each run the length of the ballroom between the entrance side and the far wall.
Our advice A back-to-back booth has one face, so keep the wall graphic at eye height and the sample counter at the aisle edge.
Wall booths 35–38 and 73–89
A short run of four booths on the end wall and seventeen along the far wall, broken by fire exits, wall storage and a service door.
Our advice Wall booths near the service door are the easiest for freight; we plan cases that clear exits and stay inside your line.
Hyatt Regency meeting space
Education sessions, the Business Luncheon and the CRA meetings run in the same hotel on March 16 to 18, 2027.
Our advice Contractors move between sessions and the floor all day, so a simple, readable header works better than a tall tower here.

Carolinas Roofing Expo exhibitor questions
Questions exhibitors ask us before Carolinas Roofing Expo
When is the Carolinas Roofing Expo 2027?
The 2027 Carolinas Roofing Expo runs March 16 to 18, 2027 in Greenville, South Carolina. The expo opens with the Kickoff Reception on Tuesday evening, Wednesday, March 17 is the trade show day, and Thursday, March 18 is the education morning while exhibitors dismantle.
Where is the Carolinas Roofing Expo 2027 held?
Every event of the 2027 expo is at the Hyatt Regency Greenville, 220 N Main St, Greenville, SC 29601, with the trade show in the hotel's Regency Ballroom. The 2026 edition, then called the Carolinas Mid-Winter Roofing Expo, was at the Durham Convention Center in Durham, North Carolina.
What are the Carolinas Roofing Expo exhibit hours?
The expo floor is open Tuesday, March 16, 2027 from 5 to 7 p.m. for the Kickoff Reception, then Wednesday, March 17 from 8 to 11:45 a.m. and 1:30 to 5 p.m. The lunch break is the Business Luncheon, and door prize drawings start at 4:30 p.m.
How much does a booth at the Carolinas Roofing Expo cost?
CRSMCA prices 2027 booths from $1,200 for members and $2,000 for non-members, and the first booth purchase includes four attendant registrations. Freight and electrical are ordered separately. Our part is the display: a backwall, counter, lighting and sample boards on one fixed proposal, sized to the booth CRSMCA assigns.
How big are the booths at the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
Booth dimensions for 2027 are not confirmed yet; CRSMCA's floor plan shows 89 numbered booths in the Regency Ballroom, in two back-to-back double rows and a ring along the walls. We size the backwall and counter once your booth number is set, so nothing overhangs the aisle.
How many people attend the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
Over 400 industry professionals attend and nearly 100 companies exhibit, according to CRSMCA's 2027 expo page. The crowd is contractors, architects and consultants from North and South Carolina, and contractor companies can register any number of employees for one $100 fee.
Who can attend the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
The expo is an industry event, and every individual must be registered. Roofing and sheet metal contractors pay $100 per company, consultants, architects and engineers $100 per company or $50 per person, and non-exhibiting suppliers $1,500 per company of four or $400 per person.
Who organizes the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
The Carolinas Roofing & Sheet Metal Contractors Association, CRSMCA, the voice of the roofing and sheet metal trade in North and South Carolina since 1943 and an affiliate of the National Roofing Contractors Association. CRSMCA has run the expo every year for more than 60 years.
How do I get a booth at the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
Booths are booked through the exhibitor registration link on CRSMCA's 2027 expo page. Member rates need CRSMCA membership; suppliers and manufacturers join as Associate members. Once registration is secured, CRSMCA sends the freight and electrical service details, and we take it from there.
When is set-up and dismantle at the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
CRSMCA's draft 2027 agenda gives tentative times: exhibitor set-up on Tuesday, March 16 from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. and decorator and exhibitor dismantle on Thursday, March 18 from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m. That single set-up day is why we build a light kit that stands in about an hour.
Can we run product demonstrations at the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
Demonstrations are part of the program: the draft agenda lists Exhibitor Hands-On Demonstrations at 10:30 a.m. and 2 p.m. on March 17. We plan a clear work surface, protected flooring and a sample board sized for the ballroom so a seam or fastening demo stays inside your booth.
Which hotel should exhibitors book for the Carolinas Roofing Expo?
The Hyatt Regency Greenville is the host hotel and the venue, so your team sleeps upstairs from the booth. Book through CRSMCA's Hyatt group link or call 864.235.1234 with group code G-MBRD; rates start at $199 a night plus taxes and fees.
Can you build a display for a small hotel show like this?
Hotel ballroom expos are where a light, well-packed kit pays off. We print a fabric backwall, build a lockable counter and sample boards, ship in rolling cases, install with our own project manager on March 16 and store the kit for the Florida Roofing Expo or your next regional show.
Is the Carolinas Roofing Expo worth exhibiting at?
For brands selling roofing products to Carolinas contractors it is an efficient day: about 400 buyers, a $1,200 member booth with four registrations and 89 booths in one ballroom. Early registrants get an advance attendee list, and every attendee receives the full list by email after the show.
