About CES 2026

CES 2026 is where the future shows up- loud, bold, and on full display.

From January 6-9, the global tech community will take over Las Vegas, with Mandalay Bay as ground zero for innovation. Thousands of the world’s most forward-thinking brands, media, investors, and decision-makers will converge to launch, discover, and connect.

Last year brought over 130,000 attendees and 3,200+ exhibitors..and 2026 is set to be even BIGGER.

If you’re ready to get your tech in front of the right people, CES is your moment. But cutting through the noise takes more than just showing up.

We’ll help you create an experience that gets noticed, gets talked about, and gets results.

CES isn’t ready for what we’re about to build together. Let’s go.

We are Highway
85 Creative and

we build cool sh*t!

If your past trade show efforts felt forgettable, you need something new..dramatically new. Let our bold, strategic, attention-grabbing builds reimagine what’s possible. Let’s shake up your event presence and give your brand the spotlight it deserves.

Strategy

We don’t guess- we map. From the jump, we help define what success looks like for your brand, then build a booth experience designed to hit those marks hard. Every choice is intentional, every detail tied to what has to be true for you at the end of your show.

Design

A one size fits all approach does not work for a truly unique outcome. Designing a custom solution for your tradeshow program requires a free-flowing collaborative process between the client and our design and engineering team.

In-House Production

From sketches to structure, our in-house production team handles it all; design, fabrication, graphics, and logistics. That means direct communication, faster turnarounds, and one team that owns the details with no middlemen.

Delivery + Install + Takedown

Let our labor team handle all your needs on the show floor so you don’t have to. We send the best of the best to represent you and everything you stand for. We won’t quit until the job is done right.

Frequently Asked Questions

CES isn’t just a trade show- it’s the Super Bowl of innovation. It’s where the world’s most disruptive brands go to launch, connect, and own the spotlight. With thousands of exhibitors and media outlets in the mix, your booth isn’t just a display- it’s a statement. And it needs to hit hard.

Yesterday. But seriously- CES is in January, which means prime booth spots, materials, and install teams start locking up by early fall. We recommend kicking things off at least 4–6 months out. The earlier, the better.

Yep. Whether you want a totally original, jaw-dropping custom build or a high-impact rental that looks anything but off-the-shelf, we’ve got the tools (and the team) to make it happen. We’ll work with your budget, timeline, and brand voice to make sure your booth punches above its weight.

Definitely. Whether you’re showcasing multiple products, divisions, or partner brands, we’ll help you design smart zones that feel unified but still let each team shine.

All of it. From concept to completion, we handle design, fabrication, shipping, I&D (installation & dismantle), and on-site logistics. Our team is Vegas-experienced and CES battle-tested. You show up ready to sell, we handle the chaos.

That’s literally what we do. With bold visuals, immersive design, and attention-grabbing details, we turn crowded show floors into your brand’s stage. CES is loud- we make sure you’re louder.

Absolutely. From dismantling and storage to reconfiguring for your next event, we’ll keep your booth working long after CES. We also offer post-show debriefs so your next one is even better.

Common traps?

• Waiting too long to start design

• Underestimating logistics in Vegas

• Choosing a boring booth partner

We’ll help you skip all of that. No rookie mistakes. No last-minute stress. Just clean execution and big results.

Then you’re in the right place. We walk first-timers through the entire process; budgeting, deadlines, design, logistics, and even how to train your staff for showtime.

We’ve been doing this for over 20 years. CES is our home turf. And we’re not afraid to say it..we’re THE CES booth builders. When your brand needs to show up and show out, we’re the crew that gets you there.

An overdue thank you!

Our team had an incredibly positive experience at Commodity Classic last month, in large part to your team’s excellent customer service and guidance from concepting through booth build. It’s clear you really went the extra mile with your proposal to accommodate both our budget and time constraints without sacrificing quality of design, attention to detail, and customer service.

I’ve worked with a wide selection of trade show vendors over the years, and I can say with confidence y’all are at the top of the heap.

treated it with love

Thanks for the outstanding support and coordination with the Barrett Jackson event. Four of our Aero Leadership Team, including the President of Honeywell Aerospace, attended on Saturday and were very pleased with how we highlighted the HON brand! For a 10×60 with not much going on, the team treated it with love!

I am so thankful

Without Highway 85 Creative, It would have been a very plain store with no creativity and character. I cannot think of anyone else to have created our space and am so thankful we found Highway 85!

an absolute pleasure!

Working with Chase, Guy, Michele, Angelina, and the whole Highway 85 Creative team has been an absolute pleasure! When approaching the task of my first and our company’s first trade show in the US, we needed the right partner. Someone who could really guide us through this new and intricate process of bringing our brand to life at a trade show scale. We knew we needed a creative agency, but we also needed one built-on service. Excited to have found this amazing group of people and we look forward to our continued partnership in the future.

I could not be happier

In a world where there are so many options, we feel lucky to have found one that truly checks all the boxes. Let me save you some time and tell you why Hwy85 should be your next booth builder. In a moment of sheer panic, with the clock winding down, Hwy85 rose to the challenge and delivered something that not only came in below our budget but also designed, to a tee, exactly what we were looking for. I am so grateful for Chase, J4 from the design team, and the estimating team for turning around a proposal that matches our needs and fits within our budget in less than 48 hours! I would recommend Hwy85 to anyone looking for a vendor partner that is flexible, punctual, communicative, and true experts at what they do. I could not be happier with the experience I’ve had working with Hwy85.

We love
this team!

First off, we love this team. Brittney and Chase (and the supporting team) have been very helpful and responsive to our needs. There were 5 vendors in the running and they narrowed it down. The other designs were boring. I just wanted to extend my gratitude to this team. Thank you for the attention and guidance to help our client Brisk It make their CES debut a positive experience. Balancing the design & budget of this project came with some challenges. That said, working with everyone at Highway helped us pull through and come out with an awesome booth. From the concept development to the logistics, fabrication and assembly – Highway 85 was there to guide us through the process. I hope all of your other work at CES shined as brightly. I hope more opportunities to collab with this team come sooner than later!
