Sponsorship Opportunities

Special note: As of August 9th we have sold out all exhibit space and sponsorship for the 2010 Governor’s Tourism Conference. Please make plans to participate in the 2011 Governor’s Tourism Conference in Macon on September 11-14.

CONFERENCE POLICIES

Attendees are encouraged to visit each booth in the exhibit area during the Opening Sponsor Reception, two Continental Breakfasts, and four Breaks. In addition, as a response to our feedback from our attendees and past conference sponsors who wanted more time on the exhibit floor, we’ve included Stay In Tune with our Sponsors Trade Show Hour in this year’s schedule. The Georgia Governor’s Tourism Conference is committed to your return on your investment! Estimated attendance this year is 400+.

Please note that lodging reservations must be made separately from your registration. Our four host hotels offer rates from $100 - $145 per night plus applicable taxes. To confirm your sponsorship, click ‘register now’ and proceed through the sponsor options. Sponsorships are assigned on a first come, first served basis. Confirmed sponsors may request attendee list updates prior to the conference. There are forty total 10’ exhibitor spaces available, one per sponsor. Tables are assigned in sponsorship level order. Please review our Exhibit Hall Diagram. Also please review the Exhibitor Packet provided by The Classic Center for utility services, shipping & material handling and other general show information.

Regular set up hours Monday, August 30th from 9:00am until 2:00pm. Our Welcome Refreshment Break begins in the exhibit area at 2:30pm on Monday so please be completely set up by that time. Also, please plan to attend the Opening General Session at 3:00pm where all sponsors are recognized for their support.
