Be a Good Neighbor & Enjoy the Show!

The countdown continues, and most of you are in the final stretch of your ATD Expo planning. We have guidelines in place to help ensure that all exhibitors have a positive experience and good ROI for their participation. The following list includes some of the most common issues that Exhibitors need to be aware of in planning their 2018 participation. Here you will find the complete list of Exhibit Rules & Regulations and Exhibit Design Regulations. ATD Expo staff will be on hand to assist during set-up and show days.

Within Booth Only - Exhibitors must not disbribute promotional material from any location outside of their assigned booth space. This includes restrooms, restaurants, workshop rooms and any other public area within or outside of the Westgate Las Vegas Resort & Casino or convention center.

Convention Center Exterior Property - Exhibitors may not post ads or any other form of advertising/marketing media on any structure, vehicle or device on the exterior grounds of hotel or convention center property.

Taste and Decorum - Exhibitors may use professional models within their booth space, however, the models must be tastefully dressed. (as determined by ATD Show Management.) They must also remain in the assigned booth space and cannot walk the expo hall aisles or other areas of the Westgate Las Vegas Resorrt & Casino or convention center for the purpose of soliciting business or directing/escorting attendees to their booth.

Audio or Visual Display Equipment - Exhibitors using audio systems and/or live entertainment must keep amplification at a conversational level. The use of speakers will be permitted only if they are within the confines of the contracted exhibit space and facing inward and not toward the aisles. Adequate sound insulation must be built around the speakers to assure non-interference with neighboring exhibitors.

No Live Animals - Live animals will not be allowed within any booth space or the expo hall. Service dogs are allowed under ADA guidelines.

No Peanuts or Popcorn - Peanuts or popcorn in any form are not allowed in the expo hall.

No Packing Up Early - Saturday's final expo hours are 1:30pm-3pm. Exhibitors ARE NOT authorized to begin packing up their booths until the closing announcements have been made.

 NADA/ATD Emergency Response Plan

The safety and security of our show's attendees and exhibitors is of paramount importance.  NADA and the LVCC have a comprehensive emergency preparedness and response plan for the upcoming NADA Show 2018 in Las Vegas.  Please take a moment to review the 2018 NADA Emergency Plan, and forward it to your exhibit personnel who will be working the event.
