Service animals are permitted as long as it is on a leash, within a pen, or under similar control.

You are responsible for any damage caused by your staff, contractors, exhibitors or attendees. Walkthroughs will be held before and at the conclusion of your event to ensure no damage is done.

No décor or signage may be affixed to the exterior of the facility. Fees will be assessed if materials from your event are left in or on facility property.

Floorplans
