Exhibit Hall Requirements

The Event Coordinator submits the floor plan to the Fire Marshal for approval. It is best to submit a plan for review before booths are sold in an effort to avoid costly changes involving exhibits.
Covered exhibits and multi-level exhibits require Department approval.
A “to scale” exhibit floor plan is required and must include the name, dates and location of the event, as well as, the initial draft and revision date(s) of the plan.
Four (4) 11” x 17” floor plans detailing the exhibit layout, show offices, the service counter(s) and the utility grid are required.
Allow access to all exits, fire house cabinets, fire alarm pull stations and rest rooms.
Minimum aisle space required is ten (10’) feet.
Cylinders of compressed gases require approval by the Fire Marshal. Cylinders must be secured in an upright position at all times.
Exit signs must be visible at all times. Additional exit signs must be provided by the client or GSC if building signs are obscured by drape or booth signage
