Show Rules & Regulations

Set-Up and Tear-Down Times: Exhibitors must strictly follow the scheduled set-up and tear-down times communicated by the event organizers. This ensures a smooth flow of operations, minimizes show floor traffic and avoids disruptions.

Set-Up and Tear-Down Meetings: Please refrain from conducting retail meetings or sales activities within your booth space outside of show hours. This includes NO sales meetings or business during set-up and tear-down.

Set-Up Rules: No items are allowed to be brought into the venue through the lobby door, west entrance, or south entrance doors. All items that are being hand-carried or transported using carts, dollies, or other rolling equipment must enter exclusively through the FREE Loading Dock Ramp. This policy is mandated by the hotel to ensure safety and minimize disruption to other guests and hotel operations.

To schedule access to the FREE Loading Dock Ramp, please refer the Loading Dock Request page for instructions on how to book a time slot. Access will not be granted without a confirmed reservation.

Lunch Time Meetings: Attendees will not have access to the show floor during the lunch break, from 12:00 PM to 1:00 PM. This policy includes a zero-tolerance stance on holding business meetings during this time. The lunch hour is designated as a break for both attendees and exhibitors. Any meetings or gatherings taking place on the show floor between 12:00 PM and 1:00 PM will be shut down by security.

Children under the age of 14 unless a registered employee of an exhibiting company cannot be on the show floor at any time. Babies are welcome at the show if they are in a carrier. Strollers and wagons are NOT permitted on the show floor. This is a B2B show strictly for business purposes. 

Safety Regulations: Exhibitors must comply with all safety regulations set by the event venue, including fire safety, electrical code, and work environment safety hazards.

Promotional Materials: Distribution of promotional materials, such as brochures, samples, or giveaways, should be limited to the exhibitor's booth space and not obstruct the aisles or common areas of the event.

Alcohol & Smoking: Please be advised that the presence of alcohol in your booth or on the show floor is not permitted at any time unless prior arrangements have been made with the hotel. Smoking, including vaping, is strictly prohibited indoors at all times. Kindly observe and adhere to the designated smoking signs located outside the hotel premises.
