Reserve a Booth

SPACE & FURNITURE

Regular Booth: Each vendor will be provided with a 10’ x 10’ regular booth, cordoned off by a drape for separation. The booth includes one skirted table and two chairs.
Premium Booth: Includes all the amenities provided with a regular booth. In addition, a Premium Booth offers high-visibility placement in a prime location, with no adjacent booths on at least one side (subject to availability), ensuring maximum exposure for your brand.
Additional Items: If you need additional tables or chairs, please specify on the application form. Additional charges will apply. Vendors are not allowed to bring their own tables or chairs.
Banner Installation: Vendors may bring their own banner for advertising. Please ensure the banner does not exceed 6 feet in height, as booth height is limited to 8 feet. Vendors are responsible for installing their own banners, ensuring they do not damage the booth structure.

If you require access to an electric outlet, please indicate this clearly on your application form. Additional charges will apply.
Vendors must use electrical appliances within the specified amp and power ratings to ensure safe and efficient operation.
To prevent circuit overloads, only the recommended number of appliances should be plugged into each power unit. Do not use multiple power strips.

Setup Time: Vendors can begin setup on August 10th, 2025, starting at 8:00 AM. All booths must be fully set up by 10:30 AM.
Tear Down Time: Booths must remain open until the end of the event. Tear down may begin at 6:00 PM when the event concludes. Early tear down is not permitted.

No Sub-Leasing Allowed: Vendors are strictly prohibited from subleasing their booth. If IAKC determines that a booth has been subleased, the vendor will be asked to vacate the booth immediately without refund, will be fined, and prohibited from participating in future IAKC events.
No Outside Furniture: Vendors may not bring their own tables, chairs, or furniture.
Booth Damage: The vendor assumes ultimate responsibility for any damage to the booth, property, or the venue. Any damages caused by the vendor will be borne by the vendor.
No Disruptive Behavior: Vendors should not engage in disruptive or offensive behavior. Noise levels should remain respectful of other vendors and attendees.
Display Restrictions: All displays must remain within the booth boundaries. Any displays or banners extending beyond the designated area may be removed.
Service Outages: In the event of service outages (e.g., electricity or technical issues) during the event, we ask for your patience as the India Fest committee works diligently to resolve them.
Helium Balloons: Helium balloons are not allowed at the event. Any removal charges for balloons stuck to the ceiling, as assessed by the Convention Center, will be passed on to the vendor.
