When available, we will ask for your top three choices when registering. Any booths registered before the layout is available will be contacted. Final booth selections are based on the following priority order:

  1. 2023 Highway Safety Champions
  2. The order in which exhibit booth registration is received
    As a benefit, exhibitors from last year's Annual Meeting, received advanced notification and the opportunity to register before the general public, allowing them to be higher on the booth selection list.

The contractor and Governors Highway Safety Association (GHSA) will defend, hold harmless, and indemnify its employees and agents, from and against any and all claims and against all liability costs and expenses, including attorney fees, resulting from claims of injury (including death) to persons or damages to property arising out of or resulting from the sole negligent or intentional acts of Freeman, GHSA or any other trade show service provider(s), exhibiting companies, employees, agents, attendees or invitees of any of them.

Exhibitor Conduct

We appreciate all our exhibitors and attendees and strive to make our Annual Meeting a welcoming space for all who join us. To that end, we ask exhibitors to abide by the following conduct guidelines:

  • Each representative of an exhibiting company is expected to conduct himself/herself in a professional manner.
  • An exhibitor representative should be present in the booth during all posted show times.
  • All product demonstrations must be conducted within the exhibitor's contracted booth space.
  • Distribution of marketing materials, branded giveaways and other promotional items is prohibited outside the exhibitor's contracted booth space.
  • Demonstrations, discussions and business conducted in the booth space should not disrupt or disturb other exhibitors.
  • Exhibitors may not deface any part of the exhibit facility or hotel property. Nothing may be affixed to the exhibit facility or hotel property without the express permission of the official exhibit contractor and the hotel.

Failure to adhere to these guidelines will result in a verbal warning to in-booth personnel and email notification to the official booth contact. GHSA reserves the right to evict any exhibitor who, because of noise, conduct, method of operation or other distractions, detracts from the educational nature of the exhibit. Should an eviction occur, the exhibitor forfeits all monies paid and will not be entitled to a refund.

Any costs arising out of negligence will be the sole responsibility of the exhibitor. Exhibitors acknowledge that GHSA and the JW Marriot Indianapolis do not maintain insurance covering exhibitor property and that it is the sole responsibility of the exhibitor to obtain business interruption and property damage insurance covering losses by the exhibitor.

Exhibitors acknowledge their responsibility under the Americans with Disabilities Act to make their booths accessible to persons with disabilities. The exhibitor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless GHSA, the hotel and exhibit company against costs, liability or damages arising out of or caused by the exhibitor’s failure to comply with the Act.

Installation & Dismantlement

Installation and dismantlement of exhibits must occur during the times and on the dates specified. Any booth not set or occupied by the close of the installation is subject to forfeiture and loss of refund to the vendor. No exhibit may be installed after the exhibit area opens to registrants or dismantled prior to close of the exhibit area on Tuesday, September 10 at 11:00 a.m. Exhibit tear-down is scheduled to take place from 11:00 a.m. – 3:00 p.m. on September 10.
