ALCOHOL - ABC PERMITS FOR SERVING ALCOHOL: If you are planning to serve liquor in your showroom/ booth during the upcoming Spring 2025 High Point Market, you are required by the State of NC to purchase a "Limited Special Occasion Permit".

BOOTH - CUSTOMIZING YOUR BOOTH: Customizing your booth is the best way to attract buyers as they shop the trade show floor, and should be a common practice followed by market exhibitors. If customizing your booth requires the use of a private contractor, certain rules and regulations apply. Please see the complete list of rules regarding Exhibitor Appointed Contractors. We encourage you to take this opportunity to create a unique and distinctive presentation.
Note: All Exhibitors in Suites at Market Square–Ground and Mezzanine: No other trades shows will be held in your show space.
