Reserving
Exhibit Space
As the
Exhibit Hall is a valuable resource provided for the benefit of all
Delegates, there is no charge to qualifying members for exhibit space
booked prior to 9 November.
-
The
exhibition areas will utilize the Crowne Plaza Ballroom plus the six
adjacent meeting rooms.
-
Subject
to capacity, free exhibit space will be available to any artist manager,
consultant, service provider, or representative of a touring performing
organization who is an ISPA member and registered as a fully paid
Delegate.
-
Exhibit
space is made available on a first-come, first-served basis, with
priority given to sponsors and renewing 2000 exhibitors. Delegate's
registration fee and membership must be paid in full to be eligible
for free exhibit space.
-
Declined
credit cards must be corrected within 48 hours of notification to
retain priority.
-
The
ISPA Executive Director will have final authority to determine whether
an organization is eligible to exhibit, and the terms of their participation.
Allocation and
Specifications of Exhibit Spaces
-
One
exhibit space may be reserved per membership-and-delegate-registration,
to a maximum of three spaces. For example, an artist management holding
both a full membership and an affiliate membership with at least two
delegates registered for the Conference may reserve two exhibit spaces.
A management with only one full membership may reserve only one space,
regardless of the number of delegates or two-day registrants registered.
-
Each
exhibit space includes a 6 ft. x 30 inch (1.8 x 0.8 meters) table
and two chairs.
-
Table
covering and skirting are provided for all exhibit spaces.
-
Special
requests must be made in writing. Requests for adjacent space involving
different organizations will be assigned on the basis of the applicant
with the lowest priority, or last paid application received. Additional
suite space
is available for major sponsors.
-
Exhibit
space requests received after 9 November will be processed upon payment
of the required fee if space is available, but signage and inclusion
in the International Performance Directory cannot be guaranteed.
-
All
displays, equipment, and cases must be placed on or under exhibit
tables, which are approximately 29 inches (74 cm) high. Displays must
not extend higher than 8 feet (2.4 meters) from the floor or 5.5 feet
(1.7m) from tabletops. Tables must not be moved from their original
position.
-
Separate
video carts or display units which extend beyond the table edges are
not permitted.
-
Use
of a free-standing floor display in place of a table requires written
permission in advance from the ISPA office.
-
Orders
for utilities including telephone and electric connections must be
placed directly with the Crowne Plaza.
A limited number of video units are available for rental from the
ISPA office.
-
All
sound must be contained with the use of headphones.
