Booth Reservations: You can request up to three choices for booth location. Check the 2026 Expo Map for available booths. We will do our best to accommodate your booth choice, but know that booths fill up quickly and the space you request may no longer be available. We will contact you with alternative options if this occurs. You can also download the Booth Booking Form and email in your registration if you prefer. A booth contract will be sent to you once we have assigned a booth per your choices. Payments are due within 15 days of booking your space. |

Name Badge and Special Event Tickets:
One FREE Convention registration is included with your booth rental, which includes all conference seminars on Wednesday and Thursday for that person (this seminar pass does not include the pre-conference workshops). All individuals must have a Convention badge to attend the seminars. If you wish to register additional representatives for the convention seminars, you can add them on the Name Badge and Special Event Registration Form (we will link when available). Sign-up reminders will be emailed to all exhibitors prior to the EXPO. If your representatives plan to attend additional meals and/or special events like the Awards Banquet Wednesday evening, or luncheons during the conference, they will need to register for those meals. Download the Exhibitor Name Badge and Special Event Registration Form and indicate which events they will be attending, the names of each representative, and email to: expo@plantingmontana.org.
