During the build-up, all exhibitors and contractors, courier drivers and helpers etc. must have a contractor wristband- these will be issued by security at the access VE doors of the venue halls.

A lost badge fee of £120 + VAT applies. If there is an incident on your stand resulting in the loss of a badge, please make sure that you have reported it to the Security Manager or the Organisers Office on site, unfortunately, failure to do so could result in any insurance claim being made void.
