Before the Show
Lanyards will be available for collection from registration at the Show and are NOT posted. These need to be worn when onsite as identification.
If you require additional spotlights we can arrange these for an additional $32 plus GST. Please email Shiree Darroch to order these.
Please let us know if you plan to have water or gas on your stand. Failure to do so may mean you cannot use water/gas on your site.
Access to standard 10amp power supply is available, you will need to bring your own extension cords/multi boxes – if you require more, please let us know prior to the show. All electrical equipment plugged in at the show must display a current electrical test tag.
Arrange your insurance for your goods at the show. All exhibitors should have Public Liability Insurance to cover risks associated with being at an event. If you do not already have an annual policy, then we recommend discussing short term cover options with your insurance company.
There is complimentary Wifi for exhibitors, but if your stand relies on a stable connection we recommend sorting your own hotspot.
Any exhibitor offering tastings of alcoholic beverages or sales of alcohol must obtain their own liquor licence in advance of the show. We also strongly encourage any
Food sellers to check with the Dunedin City Council to ensure you have all of the appropriate paperwork required for selling food at the show. This is your own responsibility. Please send Carina Pearson a copy of your approved liquor licence.
Where PARTITIONING is included with your stand it is fabric covered, velcro receptive and 2.3 metres high. ALL partitions will be black (unless you have requested an alternative). Limited amounts of other colours are available at an extra cost and must be pre-ordered from Karen Woods. If you require any other furniture, you can order online with Exhibition Hire Services and check out what is available in their Catalogues. I would also recommend the local Event Hire Companies.
At the Show
Please register and collect your lanyards from the registration desk before you start your build up of your stand. Lanyards must be worn by all staff working on your stand during the set up and for the duration of the Show.
Exhibitor parking will be at the back of the building off Teviot Street. Please leave the parks at the front of the building entrance for the visitors to the show.
Please take special care of the floor and the walls and ensure you have a suitable means of transporting heavy goods to your stand. PLEASE NOTE that any damage you cause will be your responsibility and must be reported immediately.
Please join us for a MEET & GREET from 5pm – 6pm on Friday, 21 February. Location to be advised.
This will be available at the ticket box should you require a top up during the Show.
Health & Safety
All exhibitors must wear high-vis vests and closed toed shoes during pack-in and pack-out. If you arrive without a high vis vest you will need to buy one at the registration desk for $15. During this time the venue is a building site, no children can be on site during this time.
There are Wheelchair accessible toilets located in the foyer of the Events Centre.
A temporary wheelchair is available for use inside the venue, if required.
