an 8' high background curtain and 3' high side-rails. Please note each booth under 400 square feet will receive a Booth Package that consists of 2 chairs, 1 table, 1 waste basket, pipe/drape and an ID Sign per each 100 square feet reserved.
What are the Show Floor hours?
Thu 10:45 am – 5:00 pm
Fri 9:15 am – 12:30 pm
Can I bring my own tables, chairs, etc.
You can furnish your booth; however, we ask that your furnishings be in an acceptable
condition to maintain a professional decorum. Please note each booth under 400 square feet will receive a Booth Package that consists of 2 chairs, 1 table, 1 waste basket, pipe/drape and an ID Sign per each 100 square feet reserved.
When will I receive a move-in schedule?
A tentative move-in schedule is included in the Exhibitor Service Manual; however,
a detailed plan will be emailed to you 4 weeks before the show. It will
also be available on the BCMC website.
Do I have to pay for the badges for the people that will work in my booth?
If you contract for a 10’x10’ booth you receive up to 3 exhibitor
personnel registrations (EPR’s) complimentary. For booths larger than
a 10’x10’ you receive up to 2 EPR’s for every 100 square feet
contracted. If you require registrations beyond your allotted EPR’s, you
will have to pay for the badges.
Please note: It is against the rules to distribute badges to anyone other than
employees working in your booth. BCMC staff will contact you in the event there
is a question about your registration.
Will I receive a list of attendees that I can use to promote my participation
in the show?
Around September 1, a complete list of attendees will be sent to you with updates
sent about every two weeks prior to the show. A complete list of attendees will
also be sent after the show.
Can I select my booth?
The size of booths vary from year to year. Staff lays out the plan from scratch using the information exhibitors provide in their contract indicating who they wish to be near to and far from, who their competitors are, and any other special requests they make. Providing more specific information will help staff.
When do I get my booth number?
Booth numbers are typically distributed to exhibitors in the middle of August. Once they have been finalized a copy of the tentative floor plan and booth list are emailed to all exhibitors and posted on the website.
Do I need my booth number to submit my order to the show decorator?
You do not need to include your booth number on the forms for the show decorator. The decorator will assist staff with the floor plan process, so they will have the booth numbers for each exhibitor.
