Booth Display Rules
Fire Department Regulations
Please see Fire Regulations below to ensure all custom fixtures abide by Fire Department Regulations.
Electricity
Each booth will receive one (1) outlet with 120V 5 amps of power at the rear of your booth, compliments of Hall of Flowers.
Exhibitors are responsible for supplying their own power strips & extension cords.
If you require more than the 120v 5 amps of power, please fill out this form.
Low Tack Vinyl
We allow low tack vinyl/stickers to be applied to the Arena booth walls. Any other means of wall-hanging will have to be pre-approved. All material MUST be taken down by Exhibiting staff during breakdown. Any remaining damages will accrue appropriate charges upon inspection.
We recommend using blue painter’s tape in between velcro or double-sided tape and the wall to prevent damage to the wall.
Painting Walls
Arena Booth walls can be painted for a $1,500 charge, as this is the accrued cost that we are charged from the producers. Send an email to Ops@hallofflowers.com at least 2 weeks before show day to confirm this activation.
Flooring
Exhibit halls are equipped with commercial-grade rubber flooring or polished concrete. No additional flooring is needed. Any additional floor covering (carpet, astroturf, decals, laminate, wood, etc.) must not exceed your booth footprint.
Note: The thickness of any added flooring should be deducted from the overall booth height dimensions of 96” (e.g. If the floor is 1” thick, then the height restriction should be 95”.)
Exhibitors are responsible for removing & disposing of all additional flooring material. Nothing may be left in the booth after load out. Cleaning fees will be assessed if any decals, carpet tape, duct tape, etc. are left in booth after load-out.
Booth Footprint
In order to keep sight lines within the show clear, no decor or display items shall extend beyond your booth footprint.
Mini Arena standard footprint:
9’ 1 5/8” D x 19’ 6 1/4” W x 8’ H
Arena standard footprint:
18’ 3/4” D x 19’ 6 1/4” W x 8’H
Any oversize booth displays will need prior approval from HOF.
Wall Hanging
White Walls shall not sustain any damage greater than a #8 drywall screw. Use of larger screws, wall anchors, or cutting walls is strictly prohibited. If you're seeking to hang anything that is not low-tack vinyl/sticker material, please contact experience@hallofflowers.com for detailed wall mounting instructions.
Please note that anything you hang must be fully removed (and patched where necessary) by yourself at the time of booth breakdown. Any damage caused to the white walls will be billed accordingly.
Sound
Music, amplified sound or audio of any kind is not allowed. If you have a video playing the sound must be turned off. You can use headphones if you want attendees to hear audio from promo videos, etc.
Food or Beverages
Absolutely no food or beverages, including non-medicated cannabis samples, may be distributed or sold at the show without a temporary food facility (TFF) permit issued by the local County Health Department. All TFF applications need to be submitted 30 days before the event. Please contact chris@hallofflowers.com for more information.
