We want to help facilitate this by showcasing your booth through our “Exhibitor Happenings.” We want to know if you have any special events in your booth during show hours. Examples include product release, demo, dessert station, meet & greet, giveaways, press release, etc.
To be included in the listing on the website and app, please fill out the form by November 22. Submissions will be added weekly. We will not be able to accommodate additions after November 22.
