Exhibitor Contract & Agreement

EXHIBITOR AGREEMENT / CONTRACT TERMS & CONDITIONS

By submitting this form, the exhibitor confirms that they understand, agree to, and will comply with all non-negotiable conditions and requirements of this legally binding agreement/contract.


1. EXHIBITOR COVENANTS

a) The exhibitor agrees to abide by all rules and regulations adopted by Opulence Alliance Events (hereinafter referred to as “Show Management”) and its sponsors. The exhibitor agrees that Show Management shall have the final decision in adopting any rule or regulation deemed necessary prior to, during, and after the show.

b) The exhibitor agrees to obtain, at its own expense, any licenses or permits required, including without limitation those from government bodies, industry associations, or other third parties, for the operation of its trade or business during the show, and to pay all taxes that may be levied as a result of operating its business within the allocated exhibit space.


2. PAYMENT POLICY

a) Payment requirements as displayed on the Exhibitor Application (i.e., deposit or full payment) are required immediately after the application is submitted in order to officially secure the booth space. Applications submitted without payment will be declined.

Payments may be made by e-money transfer or credit card. Credit card transactions are subject to a 4% Square processing fee.

b) If the exhibitor is paying on a payment plan schedule, installments that are more than three (3) days past the stated due date will be considered a breach of contract, whereby the exhibitor will forfeit their deposit and booth placement.

The exhibitor will then be placed on a waitlist until payment is received. A new booth placement will be assigned provided space is available.


3. INSURANCE

a) The exhibitor shall obtain and maintain, at its own expense, during the period commencing on the first move-in date and terminating on the final move-out date, a policy of insurance acceptable to Show Management.

The policy shall name Show Management as additionally insured and insure the exhibitor against all claims arising from or connected with the exhibitor’s presence or operations at the show.

Coverage must be at least $2,000,000 per occurrence.

b) At the request of Show Management, the exhibitor shall provide a copy of such policy.

c) Show Management will send insurance requirements once the application/booking has been paid in full.

d) There are two special event insurance companies available:

— Duuo Insurance
— PAL Insurance

Show Management will send the appropriate broker details and the list of “Additionally Insured” requirements if the exhibitor is using their own provider.


4. INDEMNITY

a) The exhibitor accepts all risks associated with the use of the exhibit space and surrounding areas.

b) The exhibitor agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Show Management, show services, event sponsors, and the facility (including officers, agents, and employees) against all claims, costs, damages, liabilities, or expenses resulting from their occupancy of the exhibit space.

Show Management, the venue, and the host city do not assume responsibility for vendor-related loss, damage, injury, or theft.


5. RESERVATION POLICY

Each Opulence Alliance Events trade event has limited space per product category (i.e., jewelry, bath, etc.).

Bookings are accepted by direct invitation and on a first-to-apply/pay basis.

If a category is displayed as “sold out,” applications or payments should not be submitted.


6. CONTRACT CANCELLATION AND TERMINATION

a) All payments are non-refundable.

Booth rental payments are used as immediate revenue to produce the event including staff wages, venue rentals, production services, marketing, signage, social media promotion, contractors, insurance, travel, administrative expenses, and general business overhead.

b) Failure to make payment or comply with contract terms allows Show Management to terminate the contract without notice.

Payments made may be retained as liquidated damages, and Show Management may re-rent the booth space.

Failure to attend the event does not release the exhibitor from payment obligations.


7. FORCE MAJEURE

If the venue becomes unavailable or the show cannot proceed due to circumstances beyond Show Management’s control—including but not limited to strikes, labour disputes, acts of God, riots, terrorism, war, epidemics declared by a Medical Officer of Health, inclement weather, fire, theft, or government regulations—Show Management, the venue, and the host city shall be excused from fulfilling contractual obligations, including refunds.


8. EVENT POSTPONEMENT

If an event must be postponed due to Force Majeure, exhibitors will receive a credit (less production expenses already incurred) to be applied toward a future event.


9. DISRUPTION POLICY & AGREEMENT

a) Last-minute cancellations or no-shows may result in the exhibitor being prohibited from participating in future Opulence Alliance Events.

b) Exhibitors must remain set up until the official closing of the show.

c) Exhibitors must remove displays by the move-out deadline or may be responsible for additional venue charges.

d) Show Management reserves the right to terminate exhibits due to breach of contract or inappropriate conduct without refund.


10. EXHIBITOR PROPERTY

All exhibitor property remains at the sole risk of the exhibitor.

Show Management assumes no responsibility for loss, theft, or damage.


11. BUILDING LIABILITY

a) Exhibitors are responsible for any damage they cause to the venue or property belonging to Show Management or other exhibitors.

b) Show Management reserves the right to determine exhibitor eligibility, relocate booths, modify the show layout, or adjust event logistics if required.

c) All displays must comply with fire regulations.

d) Exhibitors must remain within their assigned booth space.

e) Exhibitors must comply with all applicable laws and regulations.
