Please read the following options carefully. Exhibitors will select their planned load-in method within the EventHub application. Note that all exhibitors must check in with expo staff at the Exhibitor Check-in tent upon arrival for their scheduled load-in.
Option 1. Vehicle Unload in Unloading Zone
Exhibitors will park their vehicles in a dedicated unloading zone and hand-carry their materials to their designated booth space. Expo management recommends this load-in method for the majority of exhibitors, especially those that are able to easily transport materials by hand.
Option 2. Vehicle on Display in Booth
Any vehicles on display as part of a booth activation must be pre-approved. Exhibitors must provide information on the activation vehicle in the EventHub application to receive approval for this load-in method.
The vehicle must fit within the confines of the booth space and booth space must be a dedicated vehicle space due to uneven ground in some spaces.
Any vehicle that is to be parked within an exhibitor booth must be in place by 11:00 a.m. on Friday. There will be no movement of vehicles within the expo footprint between 11:00 a.m. – 7:00 p.m. on Friday.
Option 3. Advance Shipment
If an exhibitor intends to advance ship their materials, please choose this option. Ideally, these exhibitors will arrive during set-up with no additional materials to unload. If you plan to advance ship AND unload additional materials from a vehicle, please notify your Life Time account manager and/or note in your EventHub booth registration.
All advance shipments will be delivered as close as possible to booth spaces in accordance with the load-in day/time confirmed by Life Time via email. Exhibitors may be required to move advance shipments by hand from the expo perimeter to their booth.
Tents & Weights
As this is an outdoor event, pop-up tents are permitted in this expo; however, they must be properly weighted to avoid injury. Leadville is a notoriously windy town. As the expo floor is gravel, it is not possible to stake. Water access may be limited. Exhibitors may rent weights for $30 per set of 4 weights via EventHub during registration. Expo management reserves the right to request that any tents without proper weights be dismantled. Exhibitors are not required to have a tent for their booth activation.
Tables & Chairs
Tables and chairs are not provided in the expo booth cost. Expo management encourages exhibitors to bring their own tables and chairs. If this is not an option, rentals are available. Exhibitors may rent 6′ tables for $40 each and chairs for $20 each via EventHub during registration.
Power
Expo spaces do not come with electricity. Exhibitors may purchase power for $150 via EventHub during the registration process.

Any cords found plugged into power without bands will be removed.

Exhibitors may purchase ice for $10 per 16 lb bag via EventHub during registration. Please indicate total quantity of bags needed for the duration of the expo. Life Time will invoice exhibitors after the event. Ice will be delivered to your booth daily. Exhibitors are welcome to bring their own ice as well. If you would like multiple ice deliveries during Expo hours, please coordinate with the Life Time team during check-in PRIOR to load-in.
