What’s the difference between build-up/breakdown passes and exhibitor badges?
-
Build-Up & Breakdown Passes allow access during stand setup and dismantling.
-
Exhibitor Badges are valid during show open days.
-
Delegate Passes (for conference sessions & exhibition) are free for end-users or may be chargeable for vendors.
Please note: Build-up and breakdown passes are for contractors and stand builders, while exhibitor badges are for staff working on your stand during show days.
Will badges be posted to me?
Exhibitor badges will not be physically mailed out. Your print-at-home PDF badges will be emailed to you two weeks prior to the show. You can also collect badges on-site during the second day of build-up (3rd March) or from the registration area during the official show dates.
OPERATIONS
When will the Exhibitor Zone (E-Zone) be available?
The Exhibitor Zone (E-Zone) will be open between December and March. You’ll receive login credentials by email.
Where can I order furniture, power, and AV equipment?
These can be ordered via the Exhibitor Technical Manual (available from January), accessible through your (E-Zone) dashboard.
What should I wear during build-up and breakdown?
Build-up areas are classed as construction zones. Please wear high-vis vests, closed-toe shoes (preferably safety boots), and long trousers. Flip-flops or open footwear are not permitted.
How do I register contractors or stand builders?
All stand contractors and anyone involved in build-up or breakdown must complete the Contractor Registration Form before arriving onsite.
Once registered, each contractor will receive a confirmation email, which can be printed or shown on a mobile device upon arrival. This confirmation must then be exchanged for a build-up/breakdown wristband with venue security at the access points.
Please note that this process is separate from the Exhibitor Registration Form used for exhibitor staff badges.
