If you are NOT an Official Supplier but are servicing multiple stands at the show, please contact Katy Leslie and we will see how best we can support you.

Early access and late working

The hours published is the maximum time available to construct your stand. We do not promote long working days - it is your responsibility to ensure your project is suitably staffed and safe working practices are followed

Late working past 22:00hrs is strongly discouraged and incurs additional charges.

Please note exhibitor services (e.g. rigging and electrics) will not be available during these hours

Payment will be taken onsite.

For more information or if you would like to request late working, please email Katy Leslie.

 

Security Advice

Immediately after the show is the most common time for loss and theft to occur. We highly recommend that valuables, particularly of a portable nature are not left unattended at any time on your stand at any point during the show e.g. laptops, mobile phones, handbags.

Please ensure that you have not left anything inside/ on the rental furniture. Contractors collect hired items very quickly at the end of the exhibition.

 

Venue Access

As a contractor, there are certain procedures you will need to complete to enter the hall in both build/break AND show open. Please see below for information.

Build/ Breakdown

Upon arrival to the hall please collect a contractor wristband from the team at the contractor desk in the foyer. Wristbands can also be collected at lorry doors from security officers. Wristbands will be distributed to all contractors upon completion of the onsite site induction form. That form can be completed in advance here. That wristband is suitable for build and breakdown. 

Contractors will not be allowed into the hall for breakdown until 18:00 on Thursday 8th February 2024. Please do not ask your contractor to come to the hall before that time as security will not allow them access. All arrangements for breakdown must be made during the times contractors are allowed into the hall.

Any exhibitors wishing to come and see their stand during build, admission to the exhibition hall is strictly by wristband and name badge only. Exhibitors who have their wristband and name badge will be granted access on Tuesday 6th February 2024 from 13:00. 

Please note that under CDM regulations, all persons in the hall at this time must wear high visibility jackets, appropriate footwear and hard hats where necessary.

Show Open

If you wish to access the show during opening hours you will need to contact Katy Leslie with your company name and how many you require. 

Your build  wristbands will not grant you access during show open.
