EXPO FAQ
REGISTRATION
There are two separate registration processes for exhibitors.
1. Booth Registration – This is for securing a booth at the expo and is typically completed by a company representative. It includes details about booth size and specific requirements.
2. Badge Registration – All exhibitors attending the expo must register for a badge. This registration also collects information about hotel accommodations.
Set-up and break-down crew do not need to complete this registration. Instead, they will check in at the expo entrance and receive a designated wristband for each day.
Exhibitors must wear their badges at all times to access the expo and certain events. The badge often serves as both a ticket and identification, confirming participation in the event.
The standard booth rate is $45 per sq ft. (Ex.10x10=$4,500, 10x20=$9,000, 10x30=$13,500) Be sure you enter any discount code if applicable. Please contact your merchant to review booth rates.
Once confirmed, you will receive an invoice from the NMG accounting department (approximately 7-10 business days). Please reach out to exhibitors@nationwidegroup.org with any questions or modifications. If you wish to pay by credit card, you can simply return to your registration and modify the payment page.
