Branding
The organising team will be investing in built structures, beautiful floral arrangements and carpets to direct crowd flow, beautify the space and elevate the shopping experience of our buyers. The pathways of the event hall will be carpeted in teal.
We kindly ask that brands invest time to design and plan their presentation of products for an elevated shopping experience., and to match the overall ambience. It will set our efforts apart from other simple fair experiences and attract clientele with a higher-spend capacity.
For Retail Brands:
*Backdrops are not compulsory, but recommended. Please ensure that they are no taller than 2m.
*Personal carpeting for your booth is not compulsory, but recommended.
*Do choose carpet colours that would be a good contrast or complement to our event colours.
Your Space & Positioning
to-be-updated in Aug/Sep
We will do our best to keep everyone's needs in mind. However, we apologise that we are unable to accede to any requests beyond the constraints of the venue and event requirements.
*Electrical points will be provided near your booths. Some plugs will require sharing. Please bring your own electrical multi-plugs and exercise consideration when sharing between your neighbours. The TSS team will assist with going around to check and tape multi-plugs down with duct tape for safety.
*Vendors are allowed to use LED and battery operated lighting to enhance their set-up.
*Vendors not allowed to use any high-voltage equipment.
