Booth Staffing

All exhibitors have an obligation to the conference attendees to make certain this rule is not violated. If an exhibitor chooses to dismantle or unman early, PVMA will bill the exhibitor the cost of one additional booth space ($1800 total).
Exhibits may be dismantled on Saturday, August 17, 2024 at 4:00 pm. Any displays not dismantled by 7:00 pm will be dismantled by the Hershey Lodge at the exhibitor’s expense. All exhibit materials not removed by the posted deadline will be transferred to the hotel and held for disposition at the exhibitor’s expense.
PVMA utilizes the event app “Whova” (HOO-va) to enhance the attendee and exhibitor experience. Each exhibitor is provided with 2 complimentary registrations to the app. Employees who are attending the conference are encouraged to participate, as there are in-app messaging features utilized onsite. Additional app access passes are available for purchase at $25 each.
An email will be sent to the person listed as the primary contact on the exhibitor application with instructions are provided in the app for how to set up a profile. Questions about Whova access should be directed to Corinne Tolan at ctolan@PaVMA.org.
