Setup Requirements
All registration materials and identification badges must be obtained at the Exhibitor Registration Desk. At least one representative from each exhibiting company must check in at the Exhibitor Registration Desk and set up the company’s booth(s) on Sunday, January 31, during exhibit installation hours, 9:00 a.m. - 6:00 p.m. Exhibitors who do not complete setup of their booth(s) before 6:00 p.m. on January 31 will automatically forfeit their exhibit booth space(s) unless previous arrangements have been made with APPA’s expo manager. The disposition of the booth(s) will then be entirely at the discretion of the APPA. No refunds will be granted, nor will previously paid monies be applied to future shows or other marketing areas. No exceptions will be made. Exhibitors are expected to have their booths in show condition each day before the exhibit hall opens.
The exhibit hall will close at 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday,
February 2. All booths must remain open and fully staffed until 11:00
a.m. An exhibitor who begins dismantling prior to this time will
jeopardize participation in future shows.
Exhibit Badge Policy
Each for-profit booth is allotted four complimentary Institute
registration badges (three for non-profit organizations) which permits
entrance to all Institute receptions, workshops, general sessions and the
Resource Expo. Additional badges are available at a cost of $50 per badge
and must be listed on the Exhibit Booth Reservation Contract. (Corporate
Members are alotted six (6) additional complimentary exhibit badges.) Only
those persons employed by the exhibiting company are entitled to name
badges. All others must register for the Institute and pay the Institute
registration fee. It is recommended that any additional representatives
wishing to register to attend the Institute do so in advance to take
advantage of APPA’s reduced registration rates. Registration forms may be
obtained by calling Kris Chappell at (859) 244-8204 or email at
kchappel@csg.org.
