A profile arrangement for setting up exhibition stands or shop fittings, the profile arrangement comprising:

• a supporting profile, the supporting profile having at least one hollow chamber extending continuously in a longitudinal direction of the supporting profile, an inner side, an outer side facing away from the inner side towards an exterior environment of the profile arrangement, and at least two legs extending continuously in the longitudinal direction and having respective free terminal ends, each of the legs having an outer surface facing towards the exterior environment and an inner surface facing away from the outer surface and the supporting profile having snap-fitting means at the free terminal ends of the at least two legs;
• a covering profile having snap-fitting means, an outer side facing the exterior environment and an inner side facing away from the outer side, the covering profile being constructed at least partly of light-transmissive material or being completely constructed of translucent plastic, the snap-fitting means of the supporting profile being configured to interact with the snap-fitting means of the covering profile to connect the covering profile to the supporting profile, the inner side of the covering profile in a connected state of the covering profile and the supporting profile being disposed in opposed relation with the inner side of the supporting profile;
• and
• LED lighting means disposed on the inner side of the supporting profile and during operation the LED lighting means radiate light in a direction of the inner side of the covering profile, each of the inner surfaces of the legs of the supporting profile being disposed and configured to receive light impinging thereon from the LED lighting means and to reflect the light onto the inner side of the covering profile, each of the inner surfaces having a tapered surface portion projecting towards the outer surface of a respective one of the legs as the inner surface extends in a direction towards the terminal free end of the respective leg.
