Only Green 10x10 booths will be allowed to build walls or other supports taller than 5 feet.  This is to allow air flow to all areas in the large venue.

The building does not have reliable AC and electricity is limited.
 We are also hoping the AC works perfectly and for the entire event but… ***Be prepared to bring battery powered fans for your comfort.***
 We can not guarantee electricity for any fans at your booth. We will have large fans running, if necessary.
