Premium Space Allocation

IAAPA Expo will be held in the North/South Building at the Orange County Convention Center; the same location attendees and exhibitors have been building connections for many years. The show floor will be curated into pavilions, allowing attendees to find your booth more efficiently.

IAAPA Expo 2023 Premium Space Allocation will be held during the week of Feb. 6-13, 2023, and assigned by IAAPA staff. IAAPA Staff will calculate seniority by December and send communication to those companies eligible for Premium Space Allocation. Click HERE to view the 2023 Premium Space Allocation List.

A 25% deposit and Membership renewal will be needed to be made before space can be assigned. 50% deposit is due by March 17, 2023, and the final 50% payment is due August 4, 2023.

Assignment Schedule

The following is the scheduled timeline for your assignment. 

Increased Number of Companies in Premium Space Allocation

Previously known as the top 150, Premium Space Allocation has increased the number of companies that will be assigned during this group. It will now be the top 25% Seniority companies, based on the previous year’s final exhibiting companies. IAAPA team members will contact those top 25% companies and alert them of their selection period. All other companies will be assigned during the Priority Space Allocation Subcommittee meeting in April for IAAPA Expo. For IAAPA Expo Asia and IAAPA Expo Europe, IAAPA team members will handle the allocation of spaces for both Premium and Priority Space allocation.

New to 2022- How Booth Space is Assigned

New rules and regulations have been put into place for IAAPA Expos, including how booths are assigned for all three Expos. The IAAPA Global Manufacturers and Suppliers Committee voted on and approved all the new policies outlined below.

IAAPA MEMBERS WILL BE ASSIGNED BEFORE NONMEMBERS
IAAPA Members will be assigned booth space prior to nonmembers. Renew your IAAPA membership with your contract to be considered a 2023 IAAPA member. Your seniority could be affected greatly if you do not renew your membership with a contract. Join or renew by visiting www.IAAPA.org/Membership.

EXHIBIT HISTORY UPDATE
Starting with the 2022 Expos, if a company elects to not exhibit for three consecutive years, then their exhibiting years history will revert to zero. Click HERE for a detailed breakdown of space allocation process and procedure.
