Pop-up shopping events are all the rage lately. The great thing about pop-up events is that they let you save money on start-up costs, reduce the overhead of retail sales operations, and give some creative space to shop vendors, letting them do some pretty unique things. But you’ve got to remember that the choice of your pop-up event venue is just as important as what you’re selling or promoting.

They’re all individual and unique in their own ways, lending a cool and chic appeal to anything you may want to do with your merchandise. They’re not huge spaces, but the intimacy is all part of the charm, and will more than accommodate the needs of any shopper.
