iPad & Android Tablet Kiosks for Events & Exhibitions

Events move fast — and your technology needs to keep up. Whether you're at a trade show in Sandton, an expo in Nairobi, or a retail activation at the mall, tablet kiosks let you capture leads, engage customers, and demo products securely — without extra staff.

Avansa’s tablet kiosk stands are designed for Africa’s dynamic event environments: quick to set up, tamper-resistant, and professional-looking under pressure. Here’s how to choose the right one for your next event.

Why tablet kiosks work at events

  • Lead capture: Collect contact details directly into your CRM
  • Product demos: Show interactive presentations or videos
  • Self check-in: Speed up registration and queue flow
  • Surveys & NPS: Gather instant attendee feedback
  • Competitions: Run spin‑to‑win, QR draws, or instant rewards

Frequently asked questions

Are tablet kiosks easy to set up at events?

Yes. Most Avansa kiosks can be installed in under 10 minutes. Desk and pole mounts are quick to clamp down, while floor stands bolt into exhibition flooring or base plates.

What features make tablet kiosks ideal for activations?

Event-ready kiosks offer tamper-resistant enclosures, full screen access, cable concealment, and rotation. Some models include branding panels or accessories like QR holders.

Can tablet kiosks run without constant power?

Yes. Pair your tablet with a power bank hidden in the base. This setup helps during load shedding or off-grid activations where sockets are limited.

Are kiosks secure enough for unattended public spaces?

Absolutely. They feature lockable mounts and steel construction. For high-risk zones, we recommend bolted stands with dual-lock enclosures and internal cable routing.
