What is Booth Pre-Selection?

NCSG hosts a booth pre-selection process for all returning exhibitors each year during or immediately following the previous year's event. During this process, each returning exhibitor is assigned a time slot to make their booth selection. All time slots are set based on the NCSG Exhibitor Point System. Following Booth Pre-Selection all remaining booths become available on a first come first serve basis to new exhibitors and returning exhibitors alike.

How do I know what booths are available before my Pre-Selection Time Slot?

The Booth Availability Map will update live throughout the booth selection process. Unavailable booths are shown in red. The reserving company will be shown on the map if you hover over reserved booths.
Best practice is to review the booth map again immediately before your time slot for current booth availability.

What if I can't make my scheduled Pre-Selection Time Slot?

You may appoint an alternate company representative to attend in your absence.
OR
Staff will utilize booth preferences provided on the registration form to select your booth at your scheduled time slot if a company representative is not in attendance. A company representative may join the Booth Selection call any time after your scheduled time slot to approve or change staff selections. A company representative may also email bburton@ncsg.org following the booth selection call to approve or change staff selections.
OR
If a representative does not attend and a form is not submitted prior to pre-selection. A company representative may complete the registration form and contact bburton@ncsg.org following booth pre-selection to secure any remaining booth(s).

What is the NCSG Exhibitor Point System?

The booth selection schedule is prioritized by the NCSG Exhibitor Point System with exhibitors with the highest point total earning the earliest booth selection time slots.
Each NCSG Convention exhibitor earns points by participating in the NCSG Convention Trade Show. Each year, one point is granted per trade show booth purchased and 2 points are awarded for each year of Chimney Expo participation.
