Attendees are welcome to utilize wheeled carts or cases to carry their catalogs and other materials collected at the show. The carts or cases may only have two wheels with a wheelbase of no more than 12” from outside wheel to outside wheel. Collection boxes on carts can be no wider than the cart, or larger than 15” in any dimension. Strollers, drums or barrels will not be allowed on the show floor. PPAI reserves the right to remove any cart or case from the show floor at its discretion.

All programs, meetings, sessions, seminars, trade shows and other events sponsored by PPAI are the exclusive property of PPAI and no one is permitted to record or reproduce such events, aurally or visually, by motion pictures, videotape recording, audio cassette recording or by any other means for commercial purposes without the express written consent of PPAI. The rule does not prohibit videotaping or other visual or aural recordings by an exhibitor of PPAI trade shows made entirely within the booth space leased by that exhibitor. In order to not interfere with normal show proceedings, all recordings done outside an exhibitor’s own booth shall be done prior to or after exhibit hours; any special expenses generated to be borne by the proponents/exhibitors.

Photography and/or videotaping of any display or product other than an exhibitor’s own is prohibited, unless written permission has been obtained from PPAI and the firm whose booth is being photographed/videotaped.

At PPAI, we prioritize the security of our member, attendee and exhibitor contact information. PPAI does not share or sell any contact information to third parties. If you receive an e-mail claiming to sell The PPAI Expo attendee list, the PPAI member list or any list related to PPAI, it is a scam.

This type of scam is a known issue afflicting the exhibit and event industry. Scammers reach out to potential exhibitors and attendees fraudulently claiming to have and sell the show’s attendee list. Their goal is to deceive attendees and exhibitors into sharing personal and/or financial information for malicious purposes.

If you encounter one of these scam e-mails, email registration@ppai.org. PPAI will send a Cease & Desist letter, but we recommend reporting this email to the FTC. Here’s how:

1. Visit https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/assistant
2. Select “An Impersonator”
3. Choose "Well-Know or Trusted Business" and continue.

You'll need to share the sender's details and copy and paste the email message.

It is important to note that these types of scams are not specific to PPAI or our events; they unfortunately persist throughout the conference and trade show space.
