I would give pretty literal translations here


Explanation:
A stand situated in one of the rows, a corner stand and a stand at the head/top - I suppose this is dependent on the layout of the room at the trade fair.

inline booth - corner booth - peninsula booth


Explanation:
http://www.expoweb.com/ResourceCenter/glossary.htm

"Booth" is more American, someone in England might say "stand" because many other Europeans do.

"inline booth" = "Reihenstand" – facing only one aisle

"perimeter booth" = "Reihenstand" on the outside wall

"corner booth" = "Eckstand" – facing two aisles crossing

"peninsula booth" = "Kopfstand" – head of aisle – facing three aisles

"island booth" = German unknown – aisles on four sides
