EXPO AT THE EXPO

2024 EXPO at the Expo Wednesday, May 15, 2024 | 4-7 p.m. Alex Madonna Expo
Center
Sign up


Meet more potential clients in three hours than most will see in three months.
With 2,000 locals perusing the offerings, you may want to break out the big
guns, like those new matching company shirts.

> Check out photos from the 2023 EXPO at the Expo

The annual EXPO at the Expo brings together more than 100 local exhibitors and
puts them in front of 2,000 attendees in what has become the largest business
tradeshow on the Central Coast.

Not only is this an opportunity to gain exposure to the general public, but also
to connect with other local businesses, find services that you may need and
inform others how you can support their business.

Learn more about booth options.

Exhibiting at EXPO is a members-only benefit. For more information about member
benefits and how to join the Chamber go here.

Register for 2024’s EXPO here.

WHY IS THERE A THEME EACH YEAR?

We are serious about business, and we like to have fun doing it. An Expo theme
is a long standing tradition and it is a great way to build team enthusiasm and
energy and show off your fun side.

IS IT NECESSARY TO DECORATE OR INCORPORATE THE THEME INTO MY SPACE?

Only if you want to! We want you to make your space your own. Create something
that best represents your business and showcases your services. You don’t have
to spend a lot to make a big impact. Do what works for you and fits your
business style.

WHY DOES SET UP HAVE TO BE DONE SO EARLY?

We ask that all booth set up be completed by 2:30 p.m. so we may start the
internal networking. There are a 130+ businesses present so a good strategy is
to have someone in the booth space and another person out on the floor to
maximize the networking opportunity before the doors open to the public.

ARE GIVE AWAY ITEMS REQUIRED?

Not at all. The first thousand attendees will receive a free tote, but
exhibitors are not required to fill it. People like to have information to
remember you or your business once they are back at work, but that could be as
simple as a business card.

HOW MANY SAMPLES SHOULD FOOD OR DRINK VENDORS PROVIDE?

A good rule of thumb is to provide one sample for every 2‐3 people in
attendance. There are typically 2000+ attendees so plan on just over 1,000 small
samples. Alcohol samples should be limited to 4 oz. or less.

WHAT ARE HOURS OF SET UP AND TAKE DOWN?

Doors open at 10:00 a.m. for set up. Internal networking starts at 2:30 p.m. and
doors open to the public at 4 p.m. EXPO ends at 7 p.m. and we can not have any
take down occur before 7:05 p.m. Everything must be out of the Expo space by 10
p.m. Exhibitors will have a dedicated parking lot, to the rear of the Expo
building.
