Exhibitor insurance

(See terms and conditions on your space contract or click link above.)

Purchase policy

If you do not have proof of insurance, show management has negotiated an attractive public liability insurance policy good for the 2024 trade show (Jan. 29 - Feb. 1) that you may purchase when the Exhibitor Service Kit is available.

Booth number stickers

Exhibitor amenities

Freeman Concierge Elite

Using a PC or smartphone, access your booth information and interact with the Exhibitor Service Desk via the Concierge Elite portal on the Freeman website.

Exhibitor business lounge

Relax or conduct meetings in complimentary, semi-private meeting rooms. In addition, trade show management is available during trade show hours to assist with any questions or needs.

Interactive areas

Various interactive areas across the trade show floor give you a place to relax, network with colleagues or attendees, and learn about design, construction and recreational resources available in the industry.

Corporate suites

Clients participating in the Partner Recognition Program are offered the use of complimentary private meetings rooms off the trade show floor.

Green initiative

Donate usable materials at the end of the event that otherwise might be thrown away or cost additional shipping fees to send home. These donations benefit the local community and are an ecologically sound and responsible recycling/reuse effort.


What is not included in the cost of my booth?

  • Carpet or floor covering is REQUIRED for your booth, but is not included. You can rent carpet from Freeman, the trade show’s official service contractor, or bring your own.
  • Any furnishings (tables, chairs, etc.) can be ordered from Freeman, or you can bring your own.
  • Any utilities (electricity, water, phone, Internet, etc.) must be ordered separately.
  • Any audiovisual needs can be ordered from DMI, the trade show’s official provider.
  • Additional services, such as floral, security and photography, can be ordered from the official contractors.

More about drayage

Drayage fees vary in range depending on the trade show location and are based on the weight of an exhibitor’s booth structure and/or contents. Because it can be difficult to estimate/budget for drayage from year to year, it is included in your space fee. Most trade shows do not include this service in their booth space fee, and we offer it to you to help ensure a successful event. Please see drayage and shipping instructions in the Standard Booth Equipment Provided section of the terms and conditions for more information about drayage fees.
