General liability insurance coverage is always required of each Overland Expo exhibitor, however, we know that securing these certificates of insurance (COI) can be a time-consuming after-thought and hassle. After much research and many requests from exhibitors for a better solution, we’ve secured a service with our preferred insurance provider to include an exhibitor COI with the purchase of any Overland Expo booth space or sponsorship moving forward. This convenience to the exhibitor will ensure that all exhibitor COIs meet insurance requirements and will eliminate the hassle to the exhibitor of securing a COI from an outside provider. This also ensures that no additional certificates of insurance will be required to purchase by the exhibitor.
Once an exhibitor places a booth space order, we will secure the COI on the company’s behalf and will share that certificate with you for your files. You will receive an email (sent to the registered email on Event Hub) from Rainprotection Insurance Co. with a copy of the COI for your records.
CAMPING ON-SITE
VERY IMPORTANT, THERE ARE RESTRICTIONS! Please be aware that we don’t have room for camping directly behind most booth spaces:
- CAMPING IN BOOTH SPACES: This is the preferred method of exhibitor camping at the venue. You are allowed to camp at your booth, free of charge, as long as you can camp within the perimeter of your booth space.
- EXHIBITOR CAMPING is $75 for the weekend. Add camping onto your booth space reservation by logging into your account here. Exhibitor camping is a primitive camping space for one (1) camping vehicle or trailer in exhibitor camping. Max 4 people in one campsite – (15yrs & Up) *Badges are required and may need to be purchased in addition to complimentary badges given with booth purchase. On-site camping from WED until MON morning. No water hook-ups / no electrical hook-ups. Oversized campers/trailers will be placed in a different location. Vehicles not used for camping must park in exhibitor parking.

ATTENDEE SWAG BAG MATERIALS
Would you like to add a logo or branded swag/giveaway item to the Attendee Bag? If so, please send your item, up to 2000 pieces, to the address below.
The ideal giveaway would be a small item or “trinket” with your logo/branding. We encourage this type of premium small swag item with logo/branding, and strongly discourage paper flyers/postcards for the attendee bag. If a paper item is chosen, we do ask that it is promoting a discount at the event itself or an invite to pick up the giveaway item at your booth, and please produce it out of a thicker card stock instead of regular thin paper. (Please no liquid, anything perishable, or large items like frisbees, etc).
Deadline: May 12, 2023

Once again we’ll have custom bags for our Overland Experience attendee bag. There will be Overland Expo® patches on the front. We encourage you to have your own patches made (with the hook part) and give them away at your booth. This drives people around the exhibitor area to collect as many as they can! This is a great way to get your logo out to the community and to be a very interactive and important part of this event. Keep the patches no bigger than 2″ ideally (2.5″ max) please! We had good luck with Patches4Less.com. Bring to the show, give out on your own (we don’t recommend making these your attendee bag items, they get lost).

PLEASE NOTE that we will have staff on hand to record any early departures.
EARLY DEPARTURES WILL MEAN YOU WILL FORFEIT YOUR SPACE FOR FUTURE SHOWS. If you personally are not attending the show, please make sure your staff is aware of this.
You will receive two (2) complimentary parking passes for vehicles that ARE NOT going into your display stand when you pick up your credentials. Vehicles remaining static on the display stand for the weekend will receive a pass.
This will allow two vehicles to enter the venue and park in the exhibitor lots. If you have more than two vehicles we will be charging $20 to be able to park onsite (in the exhibitor lots ONLY) for the weekend.
You will most likely be contacted via email by a shady company trying to get you to purchase our attendee lists. Please DO NOT purchase these lists! We do not share attendee contact info with third parties and this is definitely a scam.
