Lights Out Request

All exhibitors may request the lights located directly over their booth be turned off. Shrouding of lights and turning off of individual lights are done on a time, material, and equipment basis. Any eligible exhibiting company should order this service.

For the purpose of lights out, there are three categories of requests.

  1. Over Booth - Lights directly over exhibitor's both. This request should be done in advance.
  2. Partial Over Booth - Lights partially over exhibitor's booth and partially over adjacent aisle or exhibitor.
  3. Adjacent Aisle Lights - Lights completely over adjacent aisle.

Lights in category 2 and 3 must be approved onsite by: Fire safety officials and affected neighboring exhibitors. In these instances, lights in question may be shrouded (fabric hung around light to screen light from a certain area).

In an effort to help exhibitors determine their lighting requirements as early in the move-in process as possible, there will be three designated "full lighting" periods during move-in. During these times exhibitors should determine if they wish to request additional lights out. If desired, exhibitors should follow these procedures for additional lights out.

  • A lighting grid will be available at the Information/Floor manager's Stations located throughout the show floor. The exhibitor accepts any applicable charges associated with ordering this request.
  • Floor Manager will visit your booth with Fire Safety and GES personnel to approve the request.
  • If approved, GES will turn off requested light or shroud as appropriate.
