Carpeted floor tiles only
Unserviced space – for food trucks / food stall space – This Includes: Stand space only
Serviced stand space – This Includes: Panels

Floor Plan
The floor plan may change between the time of your booking and the staging of the event The latest floor plan can be obtained by contacting the Operations Team.
Please make sure you give the most updated plans to your contractors.
If you are planning to do a banner wrap inside your stand and require the exact internal dimensions, please email the Operations Team.
4. YOUR EXHIBITION STAND
Internal Measurements
Due to the thickness of the panels (50mm approx) and the nature of how the stands are built, dimensions are not always exactly what they are in your contract. If you are planning to do a banner wrap inside your stand and require the exact internal dimensions, please email the Operations Team.
Aisles
During pack in and pack out please ensure aisles are left clear of all debris to allow forklifts, emergency vehicles and other contractor vehicles a clear passage.
To ensure clear passages, it is imperative that exhibitors keep within their contracted stand space (This includes your staff, signage, products, furniture etc.).
Exits and emergency equipment (including power boxes on the walls above stands) must not be obstructed.
Panels
If you need additional panels for storage or other purposes, please arrange this directly with EHS. Please note that this will come at an additional cost.
The Panels are covered with velcro-receptive material and are 2.3m high.
Acceptable Attachments
Velcro is the best way to attach items – you will only need the hook (rough) side. Velcro hook and loop will be available for purchase from the Show Information desk. Thumbtacks, however, these must be removed at the end of the event.
Not Acceptable Attachments
Nails, screws, painting or permanent marking of the panels is not permitted. Any damage may be charged to the exhibitor. Panels are not to be altered or moved without consulting EHS. Avoid exerting excessive pressure on the panels to prevent them from leaning and posing a safety risk
4. YOUR EXHIBITION STAND
Carpet
1m x 1m grey carpet tiles will be provided by the venue unless requested otherwise. Please note that any damage to the carpet tiles will incur a replacement cost of $99 + GST per square meter
If you would like to remove the carpet from your stand, please contact the Operations Manager to discuss – Please note this will incur a labour fee of $2.50+GST per sqm of your stand space.
If you are laying a special floor, we recommend that it be laid on top of the carpet tiles. When fixing carpet or floor coverings to the carpet, please use clear double-sided tape as it is very easy to remove
EHS can also provide alternative floor coverings such as roll carpet in a variety of colours. For more information, please use the contact details in the Key Supplier Details page.
Power & Lighting
Your stand will include an allocation of power and lighting based on your stand size. Exhibitors running multiple appliance (fridges, freezers, display cabinets, air fryer) MUST contact the show lighting team to confirm power needs and avoid onsite interruptions. Please check your contract to confirm the number of lights and power included Additional power and/or lighting is available to order through Show Light & Power. Unserviced stands do not come with any power or lighting. You will need to order this directly through Showlight and Power, or your own suppliers. All equipment will need to be test and tagged, we will have this service available onsite at cost to the exhibitor. Please see show information to arrange this service.
