Booth layouts, services, and equipment
There are two general types of booth layouts: booth and display (displays are reserved for not-for-profit organizations).
- A standard booth (small, medium, or large; booth numbers 01–62 and 101–120) consists of aluminium sections with white plastic-coated panels and one spotlight with 100 W per 6 m2. The front panel consists of an aluminium frame containing a white plastic-coated panel with the booth number, exhibitor's name, and logo (fascia board). As individual layouts of this fascia board are possible based on the exhibitor's CI, we encourage exhibitors to select this option in the online booking form and provide a respective layout design as a vector graphic file (.svg or .eps). The fascia board with a 4C print (CMYK) is included in the booth rental. Furniture is not included in the booth rental and must be ordered separately at our partner company, SYMA.

Set-up: exhibitors are expected to set up their display on Sunday, 7 April 2019, 09:00–18:00.
Dismantling: exhibitors in the Entrance Hall (Yellow Level 0) and on the Gallery (Green Level 1) are expected to take down their display on Friday, 12 April 2019, 13:00–18:00. Although the official end of the exhibition is Friday, 13:00, exhibitors are free to leave their booth open until 17:00.
Exhibitors in Hall X2 (EGU & Friends) are able to wrap their material after Friday, 19:00. Dismantling of your own stand construction is possible from 20:00. Due to the dedicated networking time slot 18:00–19:00 and the resulting security reasons, a dismantling of your own stand construction before 20:00 is not possible.
Exhibitors who deliver to IML directly by truck are kindly requested to use Gate 1 (Tor 1) for delivery or pick-up. Exhibitors who bring or remove their material by car only (not exceeding a vehicle height of 2 m) are kindly asked to proceed to Gate 4 (Tor 4). There will be freight elevators available from Gate 4 (Level -3) to the exhibition area (Yellow Level 0).

Please note that neither the EGU nor the conference organizer, Copernicus GmbH, will cover any transportation or storage costs.
