Exhibit Floor Information and Schedule

The Exhibit Hall will be located in Hall 220DE in the Palais des Congres. The Exhibit Hall will be located outside of Registration and in close proximity to all the sessions. The Opening Reception and all Breaks will be located in the Exhibit Hall. This will bring in 98%-100% of all attendees onto the floor.

  • Move-in for the Exhibit Hall begins on Thursday, April 10th at 10:00am until 6:00pm.
  • There is an opening reception on the Exhibit Floor at 6:00pm.

Exhibit Floor Times

  • Expo with booths: Thursday, April 10, 2014 - 6:00pm to 8:00pm
  • Expo with booths: Friday, April 11, 2014 - 10:00am to 5:00pm
  • Expo with booths: Saturday, April 12, 2013 - 10:00am to 5:00pm

Move-out for the Exhibit hall begins at 5:00pm Saturday, April 12th. Everything needs to be cleared out by 7pm. At this point, we transform the Expo Hall into the Job Fair (details for the job fair below).
If necessary, we will ship back banners to those sponsors who supply us with a shipping account to use. Further details will be included in the Sponsor Manual, which will be sent out later this year.

NOTE: You have an option to opt-out of the Booth Space in the Exhibit Hall. However, if you do not opt-out before the start of the conference and leave your booth empty, a fee will be applied to your sponsorship. This can be arranged with our Event Coordinator, Ewa Jodlowska (ewa@python.org).

Job Fair Information

In previous years, we have had an amazing turn out at our Job Fair. Many companies found good prospects during the three hour event, some receiving hundreds of resumes in a short time.

In 2014, the Job Fair will be Sunday, April 13th. It will be located in Exhibit Hall 220DE in the Palais des Congres. Each participant will have a 6 foot table reserved for them. Set up begins at 8:00am Sunday. The Job Fair is open to attendees from 10:00am to 1:00pm (3 hours). At 1:00pm, Exhibit Hall 220DE will be cleared out.

NOTE: Participating sponsors will have a six foot table and chairs set aside for them; we do not use booths during the Job Fair. You are welcome to have a standing banner or customized table cloth. Give aways/flyers are also welcome. Power will not be provided.

Keep in mind, if you do not see what you want, contact us any time. We are flexible and willing to work with you to design the sponsorship package that will fulfill your business needs.

More information regarding the Expo Hall will be sent out in the Exhibit Manual in November 2014 from our decorator.

Done, already in the CMS: https://us.pycon.org/2014/admin/cms/page/7/
It could probably use a round of proof reading.
