Exhibit Space Selection - New! Select Your Own Space 

In previous years, exhibitors registered up to three space preferences and GSBA chose the space. During this registration, you will select your exhibit location from the available spaces on the interactive chart. Consider nearby competitors when selecting your space. Spaces are approximately 8 feet wide by 4–5 feet deep and are designed for tabletop displays (not pipe-and-drape booths).

The spaces are on two levels of the hotel, in the corridors and the lobby.

• Mezzanine level spaces are against the bannisters along the corridor encircling the atrium. The Policy Workshop, the Support Staff Workshop, and Conference General Sessions are held on the mezzanine level. 
• Lobby Level spaces are under the escalator area, just outside of Scarbrough Ballroom, and in the main lobby area. These spaces are also in pathways but have a bit more elbow room for larger exhibits. On Monday, the Build Your Own Workshop mini-sessions are in the Scarbrough Ballroom.

Tip: Save time and review this floor plan before starting to identify your space preferences. Once you select a space during the registration process, you will have 10 minutes to complete the process. If the system times out, you may have to repeat the process.
