What makes SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop different, and how we build for it
The Crane & Rigging Workshop is the Specialized Carriers & Rigging Association's annual September gathering for the lifting trade: legal education, consensus standards, regulatory updates, training and maintenance sessions, plus the Safety Education & Training, Labor and Governing committee meetings. Its Exhibit Center, with over 90 booths, has sold out every year for nearly two decades, and it opens for a single midday session. In 2026 sessions ran from Lift Director Essentials to tower crane maintenance and ASME P30.1 load-handling planning. Exhibitors meet the owners and safety directors of crane companies in one room.
Gear, software, insurance and training partners who understand liability, uptime and the people who run lifts every day.
Inspection tools, training programs and standards updates that keep crews certified and jobsites incident-free.
Rigging hardware, load-monitoring tech and maintenance products they can handle and compare in a few minutes.
Your team in Lexington
How Purple runs the 2027 Crane & Rigging Workshop in Lexington
We build in Fishkill or Las Vegas and pack the booth into a few rolling cases shipped to Lexington per SC&RA's exhibitor instructions. Our project manager sets the backwall, counter and gear rail before the Exhibit Center opens, uses whatever venue labor Lexington calls for, and has the cases sealed for return the same afternoon.
Inside SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop 2027
Rules that shape your booth
In 2026 the booth fee included one complimentary registration valued at $640; every other person working the booth registered separately. We plan a booth one person can run and staff it to the badges you buy.
Anyone registering at the SC&RA member rate must stay a member in good standing through the meeting, or is invoiced the non-member difference. We note the rate class on your budget so there are no surprises.
2026 registration rose from early bird by July 3 to regular by September 4 and on-site after that. We set your production calendar so staff register at the early rate.
Programs worth planning for
Over 90 booths of crane and rigging manufacturers, suppliers, publishers and service providers, sold out every year for nearly two decades.
Safety Education & Training, Labor and Governing committees meet during the workshop, open to members working on those issues.
Sessions on legal education, consensus standards, regulatory updates, technology, safety, training and equipment maintenance; 2026 had 13 sessions and 20 speakers.
The SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop is the lifting trade's owner-level meeting; choose it over The ARA Show or the SAIA Convention when you sell cranes, rigging gear or lift training to crane rental and heavy-lift companies.

The booth we would build for SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop 2027
The carry-in rigging counter
The Exhibit Center opens for about three hours and every booth is small, so the play is a counter-first display one person can carry in, set and staff. Hardware goes in visitors' hands, software runs on a tablet, and the owner conversation happens standing up.
Gear rail
A lit rail of shackles, hooks, slings or load pins at hand height, each tagged with working load limit and inspection data.
Screen counter
A counter with a tablet or small monitor running lift plans, load charts or inspection records, plus a lead-capture scanner.
Back panel
A fabric backwall with one line about safe lifts and the standards the product supports, readable over a crowd.
The demo
Let a safety director pick up the gear and read its tag, then show the same item in a digital inspection record or lift plan on the tablet. Keep each demo under two minutes; the window is short.
The meetings
There is no organizer meeting system; owners and safety directors meet between sessions and at the networking events. Book follow-ups for the receptions and committee breaks with a printed card.
Every lift planned. Every sling traced.

SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop 2027 Exhibit Center rules at Central Bank Center: vehicles, rigging and materials
The Exhibit Center is a single-session booth expo inside the Workshop, held in Lexington in 2027. SC&RA sets the booth fee and badges; Central Bank Center's house rules decide what may hang, roll or stick inside the building.
| Rule | What the manual says | What it means for your booth |
|---|---|---|
| 01Booth fee and badge | Member booth $1,690, non-member $2,420, each including one registration valued at $640; 92 booths sold in 2026 (2026 brochure) source | With one badge in the fee, the booth is built so a single specialist can set it, staff it and pack it. |
| 02Display vehicles | Fuel limited to what is needed to move in and out; cap released then locked or sealed; power disconnected; keys held at venue security (venue rules, 2022) source | A truck-mounted crane or trailer shown indoors arrives near empty, and its keys go to security on arrival. |
| 03Vehicles and carpet | Motor vehicles banned from carpeted areas unless venue management directs; any motorized vehicle use needs approval, and none while the public is inside (venue rules, 2022) source | If the Exhibit Center lands on carpet, a vehicle display is out, and a scale model or video screen tells the story instead. |
| 04Ceiling rigging | Ceiling signs and banners approved and hung only by venue staff; rigging plans required for anything over 100 lb suspended (venue rules, 2022) source | A short session rarely justifies a flown sign, so tall graphics stand on the floor and rigging stays out of the budget. |
| 05Nothing attached | No signs, tape, stickers, carpet or decorations attached to walls, floors, windows, lecterns or drapery; helium balloons banned (venue rules, 2022) source | Graphics need freestanding frames or table tents, and floor decals for a rigging demo are off the list. |
| 06Flame-retardant build | All decorations and construction materials non-combustible or flame retardant, with documentation required (venue rules, 2022) source | We ship fabric graphics with their flame certificates in the case so the fire inspection takes minutes. |
Your people arrive at the Central Bank Center to a lit, stocked booth. You just show up.

Case study · KLEEMANN
KLEEMANN at an industrial technology exhibition
KLEEMANN, an elevator maker, showed vertical lifting systems through simulations beside real components. Crane and rigging suppliers at the Exhibit Center have the same limit, a few square feet and no live lifts, so the load path has to be shown on screen next to the hardware.

04 Designing for crane, rigging gear, lifting accessory, inspection, training, insurance and software suppliers selling to crane rental and heavy-lift companies at SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop
Designing for a one-session SC&RA Exhibit Center booth
1Set up in minutes, not hours
With one midday session, a booth that takes half a day to build wastes the trip. We design a case-packed backwall and counter that one person can stand up and strike in under an hour, lighting included.
2Put the gear in their hands
Crane and rigging people judge hardware by touch: shackles, hooks, synthetic slings, load pins. We build a display rail at hand height, with every item labeled with working load limit and inspection data.
3Speak to the safety director
Safety Education & Training is one of the workshop's standing committees, and sessions cover lift directors and ASME planning standards. Graphics that cite the standard your product helps meet, or the training hours you save, earn the stop.
4Plan the lead before the session
A three-hour exhibit window leaves no time to chase people. We print a QR booking card, set up a fast badge or business-card capture and leave a seat for the owner who wants five minutes.

05 Central Bank Center · Lexington
SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop 2027 in Lexington: venue and travel
The Central Bank Center reopened in 2022 after a $310 million expansion, with about 100,000 sq ft of exhibit space, a 25,000 sq ft ballroom and 16 meeting rooms, joined to Rupp Arena. Labor in Kentucky falls under its 2017 right-to-work law, and hand-carry allowances depend on the show's official contractor, which SC&RA has not named for 2027. Blue Grass Airport is about 15 minutes away and downtown hotels are a short walk. Our project manager ships the cases, sets the booth for the Exhibit Center session and packs out the same afternoon with the labor the show allows.
This building's hall rules, drayage estimates and freight deadlines for SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop exhibitors are in our Central Bank Center exhibitor guide.
What Purple handles
- Portable backwalls and counters that fit a single Exhibit Center booth
- Gear rails and lit shelves for rigging hardware and load cells
- Graphics that state working load limits and standards clearly
- Case packing so one person can carry and set the booth
- Shipping to Lexington and same-day pack-out
- Storage and reuse for the SC&RA Annual Conference and other lifting shows

SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop tips from SC&RA's brochures
The Exhibit Center has sold out every year for nearly two decades, so a booth request has to go in as soon as SC&RA opens 2027 space. source
In 2025 and 2026 the Exhibit Center ran as one session on the workshop's Thursday, from 11:30 to 2:30; a booth that sets fast leaves time for the morning sessions. source
The booth fee includes one full registration, worth $640 in 2026, so a solo exhibitor pays only the booth. source
SC&RA's reduced hotel rate is booked only after you register, through instructions sent with the registration, so register before booking travel. source
The workshop rotates: Lexington in 2027 and the JW Marriott Indianapolis September 19–21, 2028, so a portable booth that ships light serves both. source
Who you meet on the floor
The workshop brings hundreds of top managers from the industry's foremost companies, per SC&RA.
They follow consensus standards, regulatory updates and the Safety Education & Training committee.
Legal education is a core track, and 2026 included a session on what underwriters want crane companies to understand.
They come for training, maintenance and technology sessions and handle the hardware in the Exhibit Center.

Before you sign with any builder
Five things to ask every builder quoting SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop:
- Can one person carry in, set and strike our booth in under an hour?
- How will you display rigging hardware safely at hand height with load data on each piece?
- Will the kit fit an Exhibit Center booth whose size SC&RA has not published?
- How will you ship to the Central Bank Center and get the cases back the same afternoon?
- Can the same kit serve Indianapolis in 2028 and our other lifting shows?
What SC&RA Crane & Rigging Workshop exhibitors ask us
Is a three-hour exhibit window worth the trip? The room is crane company owners and safety directors, 750+ attendees in 2026, and the booth costs $1,690 for members with a registration included. With pre-booked meetings, the window is dense.
What booth can we build in such a small space? A carry-in backwall, a counter and a gear rail. SC&RA publishes no size grid for the booths, so we design a kit that adapts to the space assigned.
We could not get a booth. Is there another way in? Attend, meet owners at the networking events and committee breaks, and request a booth early for 2028 in Indianapolis. Sponsorships are listed in the brochure each year.
