*Badged exhibitors may access the exhibitor floor at 7:00 AM on expo days to prepare for the opening.
Key Buyer Power Hours Buyers in the Key Buyer Program are invited to access the exhibit hall beginning at 8:00am, two hours before the official expo opening each day. Key Buyers have been encouraged to use this time as an opportunity to preview the exhibits and hold meetings with exhibitors. The degree of participation during the Power Hours is uncertain. Exhibitors are not required to staff their booths during these hours but should be aware that Key Buyers may be in the exhibit hall. Buyers are reminded that the expo is not officially open at this time, and therefore exhibit staff may be finishing last minute booth arrangements and may or may not be available to speak with them.
Exhibit Dismantle
No exhibit may be dismantled in whole or in part prior to expo close Tuesday, March 17th at 3:00 PM.
 
IMPORTANT: All booths must be staffed for the full hours of the expo. An empty booth or early dismantling subjects your company to a significant fine and loss of location for the following exhibit year. Please make your travel plans accordingly.

ALL CARRIERS MUST CHECK IN NO LATER THAN 10:00AM ON THURSDAY, MARCH 19th. Drivers not checked in by this time will risk the possibility of their shipments going out on the house carrier at the exhibitor’s expense.
