Roadshows are back in 2026 with portable kits, AR cards, and creator programming. Our field review evaluates toolkits and workflow patterns for brands doing mobile retail and sampling.

Hook: Mobile Retail Done Right—The Roadshow Toolkit in 2026

Roadshows have matured into reliable conversion channels. In 2026, well-designed toolkits reduce setup time and enable consistent experiences across locations.

What We Evaluated

We tested speed of setup, modularity, power needs, AR integration, and guest flow management. The best kits prioritized portability and included easy wiring for lighting-as-a-service.

Top Recommendations

Workflow Patterns

  1. Pre-configure AR content and job cards for each SKU
  2. Assign a ‘kit lead’ responsible for power and POS consistency
  3. Run a 30-minute check before opening to simulate guest flows

Case Snapshot

A mobile sample roadshow used AR job cards and short-form drops to convert visitors into subscribers. The toolkit’s easy-lock system reduced setup time by 40% and increased daily throughput.
