  • Your account executive will discuss 2021 booth location options, as well as how to apply payments made for 2020 in 2021
  • Once a contract is signed, all 2020 payments will be credited towards your 2021 booth
  • If you decide to not exhibit in 2021 after the contract is signed, a $250 deposit will be retained, and the remainder will be refunded
  • If a company does not want to contract for 2021, a full refund of your 2020 EFA payment will be issued
  • Refunds will be issued, however based on the number of exhibiting companies please be aware this is not a quick process, but it will absolutely happen and we ask for your patience
