The Right Fit
Boutique style, featuring a select number of exhibitors, our expos offer local small business owners the opportunity to invest in an experience that brings real results.
A standard booth space measures 8' in width by 6' in depth. Need more room to shine? Premium spaces also available.
Each exhibitor footprint includes a standard 6' banquet table, linen and two chairs. -No pipe & drape, as we wish to create an open and welcoming atmosphere. But you're encouraged to customize and spotlight your own polish & flair: feel free to bring signature linens, freestanding backdrop, signage, uplighting or accent pieces.

Our experienced team provides final logistics for the event ten days prior, but if you have questions that arise at anytime leading up to, during or after the event we're just a phone call, email or text away. We're committed to offering substantive communication, and pride ourselves on producing events that are streamlined, highly productive, and FUN!
