Handbell Commons Exhibitor Opportunities
Exhibiting Partner Booth Prices
Each booth is 10’ x 10’ and includes one 8’ skirted table, two chairs, one wastebasket, wireless internet access and event badges for up to two on-site booth staff which provide entry to all musician showcases at Pinnacle. Each exhibiting partner will receive one booth ID sign and up to two tickets for on-site booth staff to attend the lunch banquet on Friday, July 11. Additional tickets can be purchased.
Exhibiting Partner Showcases
Because of the unique schedule of Pinnacle – there are nine class sessions in total – exhibiting partner showcases will be structured differently this year to ensure that there are enough sessions for all who would like one and that these showcase sessions are not scheduled against each other. Each 75-minute class session will feature two 30-minute exhibiting partner showcases, allowing for a total of 18 showcase sessions.
We understand that it would be more desirable to have a full showcase session, but we believe that Pinnacle attendees should have the opportunity to attend showcases for all exhibiting partners rather than just the few that were lucky enough to have one. We also want to be supportive and fair to all your businesses rather than have you compete against each other if we were to offer more than one showcase in a class session time slot.
We will be offering these exhibiting partner showcase sessions free of charge. When you register, you will still need to select that you do want a showcase; however, you will not be charged. To assist with the scheduling of the showcase sessions and avoid double-booking musicians, it will be imperative that you provide the name of all of your presenters/participants at the time of registration.
