Any materials being brought in by an outside exhibitor (on the day of the actual exhibiting) that do not absolutely require the use of the loading dock must be brought in through the conference center entrance as our loading dock can get very busy. It is the responsibility of each vendor/exhibitor to load-in, set-up, dismantle, and load out all of their own equipment.
