LOAD IN / LOAD OUT

Vendor Load In

As we are no longer at a hotel venue, some procedures from previous events have changed for our debut year at the Irving Convention Center.

Vendor load in times:

• Friday May 17 from 8am to 4pm

Please note the load in times must be strictly observed. Vendors will only be able to load in and out during specified times. If you do not load in during these times, then you will forfeit your vendor space without a refund.

All vendors must load in via the Irving Convention Center loading docks located at the rear of the building. Vendors are strictly prohibited from loading in merchandise, equipment, displays and any other items through the front entrance of the convention center.

CHECK IN

We will have staff  waiting outside at the loading entrance to check you in. You will receive your Exhibitor wristbands at this time. All exhibitors must wear these wristbands throughout the entire weekend or security will deny you entry. Please follow all instruction by TFW staff and on site security to ensure a safe and efficient load in.

Texas Frightmare Weekend will no longer supply labor or equipment for load in or load out. Be sure to bring your own man power, carts, two wheelers and any other items needed to fully load in/out and set up your booth.
