Notification of an Exhibitor’s decision to cancel or reduce exhibit space must be submitted in writing. The effective date of a space cancellation or reduction will be the date when written notice is received by ACEP.

• Written notification of a reduction or space cancellation must be received on or before Friday, May 31. The following cancellation penalties schedule will apply:
  • Cancel prior to January 30, 2024 – 25% penalty fee
  • Cancel between January 30 – May 31 – 50% penalty fee
  • After May 31, 2024, the Exhibitor will remain liable for the full cost of the original exhibit space.

At the time ACEP receives written notice that an Exhibitor is canceling its space, all function space (including hospitality suites) held by that Exhibitor will be cancelled. Any booth in the exhibit hall which is unoccupied by 3:00 pm on Saturday, September 28, will be considered a no-show and may be assigned to another exhibitor unless ACEP Show Management has received written notice of extenuating circumstances. The Exhibitor shall be deemed to have cancelled the exhibit space contract. There will be no refund to the original Exhibitor and no obligation on the part of ACEP to relocate such Exhibitors. Additionally, Exhibitors that no-show will remain responsible for any balance that may be owed to ACEP.
