Your booth is simply your space with black pipe and drape (8' back wall and 3' sides). You can supply your own booth items but we'll have an excellent decorator/supplier in Modern Expo and they can help you create the perfect booth space. Many commonly ordered items from the decorator include draped tables, chairs and carpet. Click here for the 2024 Exhibitor Kit.
Electrical is also ordered through Modern Expo (see above) for your convenience. Please see the Exhibitor Kit.
Internet costs $49.00 per device, per show. Click here to pre-order internet. You can also purchase internet the day of set-up through the girls at the check-in desk.
We are fortunate in Arizona to not have a lot of set-up and design regulations. Here are a few show rules:
* All booth amenities must be within the allotted space (nothing in the isles) unless pre-approved.
* Anything deemed unsafe in the opinion of the show organizer (such as tipping hazards) will be required to change.
* The provided drape rods will support normal banners but in general are not to be used as booth support.
* Helium balloons can be used, but only if they are attached securely to your booth. Please do not hand out helium balloons.
Scam e-mails offering e-mail lists for purchaseWe have learned from several exhibitors they are receiving scam emails offering attendee lists for purchase. Please be aware these offers are fraudulent. These scammers do not have any relationship with Pinners or Bennett Events and they do NOT have the data they are attempting to sell. Scams may also include fake invoices and hotel booking scams. Do not interact with these. Our emails are from bennettevents.com. We are a permission-based email sender. We do not share, rent or sell our email lists. Please be on guard! Spammers are known to impersonate employees and illegally use show logos.
You may ship any way you'd like. Deliveries to WestWorld must arrive on set-up days and be received by you unless arranged ahead of time with Pinners or Modern Expo.
Handling fees on your materials can be expensive from suppliers. See material handling information below.
