Conference and exhibition buyers are professionals working to a brief: floor area, ceiling height, power, loading access, breakout capacity. They're comparing your venue against three others on a spreadsheet, and the venue that answers the technical questions fastest tends to win.

We photograph the Business Design Centre in Islington, one of London's busiest exhibition venues, and shot Caffè Culture on its floor. Working around live event build-up and breakdown is normal for us.

  • Answers floor area and sightline questions instantly, without a site visit
  • Supports remote pitching to international organisers, at any hour
  • Shows the venue in build-up, live and empty states
  • Carries technical specs as hotspots inside the tour itself

What a floor plan can't show you

A tour of an exhibition floor does something a CAD drawing cannot: it shows the actual volume of the space, the real sightlines, and the pillars that a floor plan makes look harmless until someone's stand is built around one on the day. Organisers who've been caught out by a venue that looked bigger on paper understand exactly why that matters.

Remote pitching, at scale

The commercial case is straightforward: your sales team can walk an international organiser through the venue on a video call, at any hour, without either party flying anywhere. For a venue competing for bookings from organisers who may never visit in person before signing, that's a genuine advantage over a venue that only has a floor plan and a handful of wide shots to offer.

Shooting around live events

We routinely shoot during build-up, breakdown, or in the gap between events, so an operating venue doesn't need to find a dead period to get captured. If you want the venue shown live with an audience in it, that's possible too, with consent arrangements agreed in advance. Exhibition venues usually need our Large tier at £950 for up to 30 scenes, or the XL rate for multi-hall sites.

Questions people ask

Can you shoot around a live event?

Yes. We routinely shoot during build-up, breakdown or in the gap between events. Capturing the venue live with an audience is possible too, with consent arrangements agreed in advance.

Can the tour carry technical specifications?

With an enhanced tour, yes. Hotspots can hold floor loadings, power, rigging points, capacities and downloadable floor plans, positioned in the part of the hall they apply to.

How much does a conference or exhibition venue tour cost?

Most sites need our Large tier at £950 for up to 30 scenes, or the XL rate of £300 per additional 10 scenes for multi-hall sites. All prices are plus VAT.

I used Biztour to get virtual tours done of all our coworking spaces and I am so pleased with how they turned out! They were super communicative, and really flexible to help us hit our deadlines.
