Suitcasing is the act of gaining access to a trade event as an attendee (any non-exhibitor variation) and then soliciting business and sales in the aisles, public spaces or other exhibitors' booths. This unethical practice takes advantage of the significant investment show management and legitimate exhibitors contribute to make PTXPO successful for all participants. ** Suitcasing is not tolerated at PTXPO. ** If you suspect someone of suitcasing, please notify show management at once.

PTXPO23 takes place March 18-20, 2025. Hours: Tuesday, March 18th | 9:00am–4:00pm Wednesday, March 19th | 9:00am–4:00pm Thursday, March 20th | 9:00am–3:00pm

PTXPO follows the same general guidelines as set forth by the International Association of Exhibitions and Events (IAEE). We do not, however, allow end-cap booths. It is important to keep the "line-of-sight" rule in mind when designing your booth space. Line-of-sight display rules provide restrictions on certain areas of booths to allow attendees to view neighboring booths in their line-of-sight as they walk the floor. Any exhibitor who breaks these rules will be asked to remove the object that prevents the line-of-sight and may be subject to loss of renewal ranking points. View the rules HERE

We have many sponsorship and advertising opportunities available to fit your goals, whether you wish to amplify your brand exposure, draw more traffic to your booth or stand out from competitors. Visit our Sponsorships and Advertising page to view opportunities or contact your sales representative to learn more. If you’re looking for a bespoke way to differentiate your company outside our standard sponsorships and advertising offerings, contact our team and we’ll be happy to discuss custom ideas tailored to fit your unique goals and objectives.

Your booth space includes a 3' side drape, an 8' back drape, a basic company ID sign, perimeter security and staff passes. All other furnishings will need to be purchased from Rosemont Exposition Services (RES). Please refer to the exhibitor services manual for more information or contact customerservice@resexpo.com to get started.

Booth space is not grandfathered. Our renewal system rewards each exhibitor for total investment, including booth size, years of participation, enhanced online listings and sponsorship dollars. We will contact you prior to the 2025 booth selection process with more details.

PTXPO’s pricing structure is designed to encourage manufacturers to reserve all the space you need to properly showcase your equipment and services. We offer an affordable, tiered-pricing model that rewards you as you increase your size: the larger the booth, the lower the standard rate. 0-400 square feet (e.g., 10 x 10, 10 x 20, 10 x 30, 10 x 40, 20 x 20) $29/sq. ft. 401-1,000 square feet (e.g., 20 x 30, 20 x 40, 20 x 50, 30 x 30) $27/sq. ft. 1,001+ square feet (e.g., 30 x 40, 30 x 50, 40 x 40, 40 x 50, etc.) $23/sq. ft.

SPACE INVESTMENT PROTECTION PLAN (SIPP): From supply chain disruptions to travel and health concerns originating all over the globe, there are many outside factors that influence how we conduct business. The Space Investment Protection Plan (SIPP) gives exhibitors comfort in knowing that their PTXPO ‘25 commitment comes with options. Purchasing a SIPP is 100% elective and allows you to cancel your booth up to 60 days before PTXPO ‘25. It also protects against other cancellation and rescheduling conditions. If you purchase SIPP and cancel prior to January 27, 2025, you are eligible to receive a full refund of the money you have paid. SPACE REDUCTION: Exhibitor may request a space reduction, in which case remitted funds are applied to the cost of the reduced space. Space reductions are not eligible for a refund of monies already paid.

Terms and conditions can be found on page two of your exhibit space contract. PAYMENT TERMS: Full payment is now due with all new contracts. CANCELLATION POLICY: Exhibitor may cancel or reduce contracted space by notifying show management in writing. Cancellations received by October 28, 2024 will incur a cancellation fee equal to 25% of the cost of booth space. Cancellations received between October 28, 2024 and December 31, 2024 will incur a cancellation fee equal to 50% of the cost of booth space. Cancellations received after January 1, 2025 will not be refunded and exhibitor shall be liable for 100% of the space rental fee. Once confirmed, cancellation releases space for resale or other purposes as determined by show management.
