LOAD-IN ADDRESS:
Load-in will take place at the rear of the Charleston Area Convention Center behind Hall B. Come to the Load-in dock at the end of Amsterdam St.

Exhibitors be ready to give your business name at the check-in table so we can get you in as quickly as possible. No Exhibitors will be allowed to enter through the front doors. 

UPDATE
Exhibitors will receive wristbands/badges at the time of check-in and they must be worn for the duration of the show (Saturday and Sunday). Please be aware that broken/cut/lost bands will incur a replacement fee, thank you for your cooperation.

Once you are loaded in (not fully set up but you have your materials in the building) you must move your vehicle out of the loading zone and into the parking lot.
(No exceptions, you will be towed if you do not move. We recommend you get to the building early so you can find parking.)

The staff will show you to your spaces. All spaces are marked and NOT to be moved. As a reminder, the floor managers and volunteers are there to help but are prohibited from bringing in your supplies or working your booth. Be sure to bring any carts, dollies, or load-in help you may need to set up.

Please note: All times are subject to change by the Charleston Area Convention Center.

All booth assignments are currently labeled TBA, meaning To Be Announced. We will no longer be posting the exact booth numbers until check-in.

Why?
The biggest reason for this is that most cancellations occur in the final 2 weeks before the show. Causing us to move things around repeatedly behind the scenes.

When someone cancels, everyone will “MOVE UP” to fill the empty slot. Then, any wait list exhibitors will fill in at the end of the line.

This is both simple and incredibly fair. Last minute additions won’t “fill in” the closest spots.

Once at the show, you will receive your booth number, which will be THE BEST up-to-the-minute spot.

This does not mean the earlier you show up, the better your booth, though we do encourage everyone to get to the show early.
