Regardless of whom you choose to assist in your booth design and build, all booths must comply with the booth guidelines and show regulations as set forth in the Exhibitor Manual.

Southern California Labor Jurisdictions | Decorators union: Members of this union claim jurisdiction over all set-up and dismantling of exhibits including signs and laying of carpet. This does not apply to the unpacking and placement of your merchandise. You may install and/or dismantle your exhibit display if one person, who is a full-time employee, can accomplish the task in an hour or less without the use of tools.

If your exhibit preparation, installation, or dismantling requires more than 1 hour, or the use of tools you must use union personnel. It can either be Freeman labor or an Exhibitor Appointed Contractor (COI required from all exhibitors). If you are using an EAC, please complete the form found in the exhibitor service kit or here.

ATTENTION: As a standard requirement for all our show exhibitors, it is necessary for you to carry general liability coverage from an insurance company in good standing with minimum policy limits of $1,000,000 per occurrence and $2,000,000 aggregate. Insurance Coverage is not optional. You may purchase your own insurance or use our official insurance provider, RainProtection Insurance.
