Spray planes on carpet: NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027 booths in Oklahoma City

The aerial application trade parks real aircraft between the booths, and operators spend whole days on the floor. We build booths for spray systems, guidance, engines and drones that hold up next to a turbine Thrush.

  • 140+ exhibitors in 2026
  • Aircraft on the floor

What makes NAAA Ag Aviation Expo different, and how we build for it

The Ag Aviation Expo is the yearly convention of the National Agricultural Aviation Association, and its trade show is where aerial applicators buy the aircraft, spray systems, guidance units, engines and services that keep a Part 137 operation flying. Aircraft and truck or trailer displays sit on the floor beside the booths, and NAAA's surveys report that nearly three quarters of attendees spend the whole allotted seven to twelve hours in the hall. In 2027 the expo moves to Oklahoma City, November 15–17, before returning to Savannah in December 2028.

Aerial application operators

Owners of Part 137 businesses who decide on aircraft, spray booms, flow control and insurance, and who come to the hall to compare and buy.

Ag pilots

Pilots who fly the aircraft daily and want to see a guidance screen, a nozzle or a seat up close and ask the person who designed it.

International operators and dealers

Visitors from abroad, 7% of the attendee mix in NAAA's prospectus, looking for distributors and service support.

Your team in Oklahoma City

How Purple runs the NAAA expo in Oklahoma City

Our Fishkill, NY or Las Vegas shop makes the booth and its prints, which then ride to the advance warehouse named in NAAA's 2027 exhibitor kit or direct to the Oklahoma City Convention Center on the move-in day it sets. Our project manager runs the install with the labor the show and venue require, timed around aircraft arrivals.

Rules that shape your NAAA Ag Aviation Expo booth

No flashing lights

NAAA's 2026 rules do not permit flashing signs or lights and require advance approval for unusual light or sound effects. We build steady LED light boxes and keep audio low.

Organizer rule

Machinery stays guarded

All exhibit machinery and equipment must sit within the booth or static display area with safety guards and fireproofing, and only equipment named in the booth purchase may enter the hall. We list every display item at booking.

Organizer rule

Static aircraft need extra insurance

Static display aircraft require additional insurance coverage, with details supplied by NAAA, and aircraft exhibitors get separate arrival and departure procedures. We schedule the booth build around the aircraft's arrival.

Organizer rule

No early teardown

Tearing down before the scheduled close costs the right to buy space for the next year until general sales open, per the 2026 terms. Our dismantle starts only after the final trade show session.

Organizer rule

One company per booth

Booth sharing is not allowed and all personnel badges must carry the same company name. Distributors who want a partner's product on show plan it under one exhibitor.

Organizer rule

Programs worth planning for

Aerial Application Technology Research Session

A research session on application technology held on the first convention day in 2026, part of 20+ hours of education with potential CEUs.

02 Booths & pricing for NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027

What does a booth at the NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027 cost?

This is an association convention with a sold-space trade show: NAAA sells 10×10 spaces that combine into larger inlines, 20×20 and 20×30 islands, and aircraft or truck/trailer spaces. Aircraft dealers and large booths are placed first, in spring. For a first expo we suggest a 10×20 inline with a product counter and a screen; aircraft and spray-system makers do best on a 20×20 or 20×30 island next to their aircraft space.

The booth we would build for NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027

The hangar-side counter for spray operators

Operators and pilots stay on this floor for most of the day and walk between parked aircraft, so the booth should feel like the bench in their own hangar: the part on the counter, the data on a screen and a person who has flown with it. It wins by being touched, not by being tall.

Every acre on target. Every load accounted for. 01Hangar benchA waist-high counter with the nozzle,valve, flow meter or guidance unit looseon it, so a pilot can pick it up…02Panel mock-upA cockpit-style panel with the guidanceor flow-control screen live, set atseated eye height with a stool in front.03Coverage wallA steady-lit graphic of a swath map ordroplet test result, readable from theaircraft row.04Operator tableTwo chairs at the back for an ownerpricing a full system, insurance orfinancing.

Concept plan for NAAA Ag Aviation Expo, not to scale: zones follow the show rules on this page; your final plan is drawn to your space and the organizer's rules.
01

Hangar bench

A waist-high counter with the nozzle, valve, flow meter or guidance unit loose on it, so a pilot can pick it up and turn it over.

02

Panel mock-up

A cockpit-style panel with the guidance or flow-control screen live, set at seated eye height with a stool in front.

03

Coverage wall

A steady-lit graphic of a swath map or droplet test result, readable from the aircraft row.

04

Operator table

Two chairs at the back for an owner pricing a full system, insurance or financing.

The demo

Put a pilot on the stool, load a field, and fly a short pass on the guidance screen while the flow controller shows rate changes; then hand over the real valve. Keep it to two minutes so the next pilot in line gets a turn.

The meetings

NAAA rules bar entertaining visitors in function rooms during program or hall hours, so meetings happen at the booth: plan the operator table and book follow-ups at the receptions on the published schedule.

Every acre on target. Every load accounted for.

Stand up next to an airplane

Aircraft spaces put a full ag aircraft near your booth. We keep the back wall graphic and the product at a scale that still reads when a turbine airplane is parked 30 feet away, and we light the product, not the walls.

Show it the way a pilot uses it

Operators and pilots spend seven to twelve hours in the hall, per NAAA surveys. A guidance screen on a mock panel, a nozzle at hand height or a boom section with real fittings gets touched; brochures do not.

No flashing lights

NAAA's 2026 rules ban flashing signs or lights and let show management restrict glaring effects and loud sound. We design steady LED light boxes and keep video quiet so the booth passes the rules on day one.

Pilot in sunglasses and cap seated in an open-canopy light aircraft before taxi4

Everything inside the booth line

NAAA rules keep all exhibit material inside the space and do not let end-cap booths block the view of booths behind them. We hold end caps under the published sight lines and keep demos inside the footprint.

Trade show floor

10×10 spaces that combine into inlines, islands of 20×20 and larger, and aircraft or truck/trailer spaces, per NAAA's 2026 exhibiting page.

Our advice Ask for a space near the aircraft rows if your product mounts on an airplane.

B

Aircraft spaces

Each aircraft or truck/trailer space came with four badges and required a 10×10 booth as well in 2026.

Our advice Plan the booth and the aircraft as one display so visitors walk from the airplane to your counter.

C

Education rooms

In 2026 more than 20 hours of education ran in meeting rooms beside the hall, including manufacturer sessions and a precision ag session.

Our advice Staff the booth around your own session so pilots can find you right after it.

NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027 move-in, aircraft and hall rules

The 2027 expo moves to the Oklahoma City Convention Center, and NAAA had not posted the 2027 exhibitor services kit, contractor or move-in times when this page was written. In 2026 the general services contractor was T3 Expo, advance freight was received from October 9 to November 5, exhibitor setup ran the day before and the morning of the first show day, and booths had to be set by 11:30 a.m. on opening day. Aircraft exhibitors receive separate arrival, departure and insurance procedures from NAAA. We plan the 2027 schedule from the 2026 pattern and adjust it the day the 2027 kit appears.

What Purple handles

  • Inline and island booths built around spray systems, guidance and engines
  • Product plinths and mock cockpit panels pilots can operate
  • Steady, non-flashing LED graphics that meet NAAA's lighting rule
  • Booth plans that sit beside an aircraft or truck/trailer space
  • Freight to the 2027 advance warehouse and show-site deliveries
  • Storage and reuse for the 2028 return to Savannah

NAAA Ag Aviation Expo timeline, counted back from move-in

We need your NAAA Ag Aviation Expo design signed off by August 2027.

Before you book NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027

What NAAA Ag Aviation Expo exhibitors plan for months ahead

  1. NAAA pre-sells aircraft, dealer, island and 10×30-plus spaces in spring; in 2026 the online sale for the smallest inline booths opened July 9 at noon Eastern and needed a NAAA website login, so set up the account before sale day. source

  2. Booth payment is 100% due at purchase, and in 2026 cancellations before September 18 kept 25% of the booth fee while later ones were not refunded. source

  3. Badges come four to each base booth unit and each aircraft space, extra booth badges were $130 in 2026, and the Kickoff Breakfast ($65) and Awards Banquet ($125) need separate tickets. source

  4. The 2026 hall was not carpeted and carpet was not required; drape was black and aisle carpet grey, so a booth floor is a choice, not a rule. source

  5. Companies that bought space after September 15 risked missing the printed program in 2026, though every exhibitor appears in the NAAA Expo App. source

NAAA Ag Aviation Expo exhibitor questions

NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027 questions from exhibitors

When is the NAAA Ag Aviation Expo 2027?

November 15–17, 2027, at the Oklahoma City Convention Center, per NAAA's list of future expo dates. The 2028 expo returns to the Savannah Convention Center and Westin on December 4–6, 2028.

Where was the Ag Aviation Expo in 2026?

Savannah, Georgia, November 16–18, 2026, at the Savannah Convention Center and the Westin, with the NAAA Trade Show in Hall D. The 2027 page is built for Oklahoma City, where the expo moves next.

What are the NAAA Trade Show hours for 2027?

Not confirmed yet for 2027. NAAA ran its 2026 floor Tuesday from noon to 5:30 p.m. and Wednesday from 9:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., after a Monday setup day, per NAAA's 2026 schedule.

How much does a booth at the NAAA Ag Aviation Expo cost?

In 2026 a member 10×10 cost $905, $1,365 or $1,890 depending on company size, a non-member 10×10 cost $4,305, and islands ran $5,985 (20×20) and $8,400 (20×30), per NAAA. Purple's build is separate: a 10×20 rental frame with your graphics typically runs $7,500 to $15,000.

Can we bring an aircraft to the NAAA expo?

Aircraft (plane or helicopter) and truck/trailer spaces were sold in 2026 at $705 each, plus a required 10×10 space, per NAAA. NAAA sends aircraft exhibitors separate procedures for insurance, arrival and departure, and static display aircraft need additional insurance coverage.

Do we have to be NAAA members to exhibit?

Member rates require Allied or Operator membership in NAAA; non-members can still buy space at the higher non-member rate, which was $4,305 per 10×10 in 2026. NAAA also sells space to international members.

How are booths placed at the Ag Aviation Expo?

In stages: in 2026 aircraft, dealers, 20×20 and larger islands and top sponsors were placed March to May, 10×30 and larger booths through early July, and 10×10 and 10×20 spaces went on sale online July 9. The 2026 show sold out with a wait list.

What comes with a NAAA booth?

In 2026 each space included back drape 8 feet high, side drape 3 feet high, an ID sign, a wastebasket and four booth personnel badges per 10×10 or aircraft space. The hall is not carpeted and carpet is not required, per the 2026 exhibitor services page.

Who attends the NAAA Ag Aviation Expo?

Aerial application operators made up 43% of attendees, pilots 26%, international visitors 7% and allied non-exhibitors 6%, per NAAA's 2026 prospectus. NAAA expected 1,500+ attendees in 2026.

What lighting and sound rules apply at the NAAA Trade Show?

Flashing signs or lights are not allowed, and unusual light or sound effects need advance approval from NAAA show management, per the 2026 rules. Machines loud enough to disturb neighboring booths can be limited to periodic operation.

Can we host a customer event during the expo?

Not during program or exhibit hours: NAAA's 2026 rules bar exhibitors from entertaining visitors in a rented function room during NAAA programs or hall hours, and from promoting outside the convention center during the show. Plan hospitality around the published schedule.

Is the Ag Aviation Expo worth it for a drone company?

It can be if your buyer is an aerial application business: NAAA lists drones among exhibitor categories and runs a precision ag session in its program. For drone-only operators and dealers, the Spray Drone End User Conference in January is the closer fit.

How is the NAAA expo different from the Spray Drone End User Conference?

NAAA's expo is the manned ag aviation industry's convention, with aircraft on the floor and operators who fly Part 137 airplanes and helicopters; the Spray Drone End User Conference gathers drone applicators, dealers and makers. Pick NAAA for aircraft-based application.

Before you sign for NAAA Ag Aviation Expo

Five questions to ask any exhibit builder for NAAA Ag Aviation Expo:

  1. Can you design a booth that reads next to a parked aircraft space and uses only steady, non-flashing light?
  2. Will you build around the aircraft's arrival and the static display insurance NAAA requires?
  3. How will you ship to the 2027 advance warehouse once NAAA names the Oklahoma City contractor?
  4. Can our crates be sized so the 2027 drayage bill is priced both flat and per pound before we ship?
  5. Will you store the booth for the December 2028 expo in Savannah?

What NAAA Ag Aviation Expo exhibitors ask us

Our product is small next to an airplane. Will anyone notice us? Visitors come to touch parts, not to look at walls: NAAA surveys put most attendees on the floor for seven to twelve hours. A lit counter with the part in hand and a pilot-height screen holds attention near even the largest aircraft space.

The expo moves to Oklahoma City in 2027. Should we wait for 2028? The buyers move with the association, and Oklahoma City sits in the middle of U.S. aerial application country. A booth built for 2027 can be stored and reused for Savannah in December 2028.

We missed the spring placement. Is there still space? The smallest inline spaces were sold online from July in 2026, but the show sold out with a wait list. Have your NAAA login ready and be online the hour sales open.
