A picture saying "What do pur exhibitors say."

"Our company is excited about the Marine 2006 exhibition. This exhibition is a world-class showcase in its own right. I have travelled to many international marine trade shows and I have learned that we can put on a show with the best of them. We always experience success at our Marine shows in St. John's and we look forward to the same, or better, success in 2006."
Don Vokey

"After attending shows all over North America and in Europe, this is by far the best show at which we exhibit."
- Shannon Pinsent, Marketing & Sales Manager, Blue Oceans Satellite Systems Inc.

EXHIBITOR TIMETABLE

Move In & Set Up - October 29, 2008 from 8:30am to 6:30pm.

NOTICE: The deadline for completion of booths is 6:30pm, October 29. 2008. Exhibitors are required to closely coordinate the arrival of their material with their freight carrier or customs broker to ensure that their material is delivered on-site to comply with this move-in schedule.

LATE ARRIVALS: Exhibitors arriving for set-up after the scheduled time for move-in can be relocated to any other location specified by Show Management. Although we will try to accommodate most circumstances that arise through no fault of the exhibitor, some deadlines must be met.

N O T I C E

The hours prior to opening on October 30, 2008 will be utilized by the Show Contractor to place and/or adjust aisle carpeting and to accomplish the final cleanup. Exhibitors should not plan on utilizing this time for their booth set-up. Forklifts and freight carts will be unable to operate in the aisles once carpets are in place.

Take-Down & Move-Out of Exhibits All Exhibitors

Notice: No exhibitor is to dismantle their booth PRIOR TO 4:00pm on November 1, 2008. As soon as all visitors clear the Exhibition at 4:00pm, all aisle carpets will be removed by the Show Contractor as quickly as possible. Do not place any items in the aisle until this is accomplished. Forklifts will deliver shipping crates to your area as soon as possible thereafter.

ALL EXHIBITORS: Move-Out Schedule
November 1, 2008 4:30pm - 10:00pm


Notice: Exhibitors must have all materials totally removed no later than 10:00pm on Saturday November 1, 2008. This is due to the scheduling requirements of The Glacier. Exhibitors must be present to protect their property at all times during show hours and especially at the end of the Show. The organizers assume no responsibility for items lost or damaged during move-out.

ELECTRICAL SERVICE
Each booth is allocated 1 each 110V (800 Watt) outlet. If this will not be sufficient, or if you require power other than 110V (ie: 208V, etc) you must make these arrangements directly with Global Convention Services Ltd. Contact information is noted below. Any cost incurred for additional service will be the sole responsibility of the Exhibitor and will be paid directly to Global Convention Services Ltd.

PLEASE ADVISE OF YOUR ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS EARLY. If you have any questions or specific requirements, please contact Global Convention Services Ltd. at its booth on site on set-up day.

N O T I C E

DO NOT ship your freight to The Glacier to be held prior to the Show as they have no storage facilities. Your freight carrier must be prepared to hold your material at their freight terminal until the scheduled set-up times.

Shipping Heavy Exhibits
