EXHIBITOR Magazine Announces 2026 Portable/Modular Awards Winners

3/31/2026

EXHIBITOR magazine is proud to announce the following winners in its 13th Annual Portable/Modular Awards. Judged by a panel of designers and marketing experts, the contest was open to modular, system, and portable exhibits launched between Nov. 1, 2023, and Nov. 1, 2025, as well as conceptual designs that had never been fabricated. Visit ExhibitorOnline.com/PMA for more information on the competition.

"Portable, modular, and system exhibits continue to gain traction for a reason: They’re budget-friendly and deliver versatility and sustainability without compromising impact,” said Emily Olson, editor of EXHIBITOR magazine. “The 2026 Portable/Modular Award winners demonstrate just how far these solutions have evolved. Congratulations to our winners on their incredible work!”

Traditional category winners as well as the winner of the People’s Choice Award — the only component of the program chosen by popular vote — were announced at EXHIBITORLIVE in Tampa, FL, on Tuesday, March 31. Winners received a custom trophy and will be featured in the June/July issue of EXHIBITOR magazine.
