An excellent way to gain exposure at the show is BOOTH BINGO. By participating in this unique program, show attendees will visit your booth to have you stamp their BINGO card. The visitor wants to participate to win prizes. You’ll want to participate to attract more traffic to your booth.

How it works:You bring in a prize valued at $25 or more to the show office when you check in for a show. You’ll pick up a stamp pad, stamp with your BINGO number on it as well as a card to hang in your booth to let the show attendees know that you are a BOOTH BINGO participant.

Show attendees are given a BINGO card when they enter the show and they carry this card around the show looking for the BINGO number hanging in your booth. They stop at your booth to get their card stamped and they get a chance to look and see what you’ve got!

Only 24 Exhibitors can participate!Only the first 24 exhibitors to respond can participate. If you are interested, please return this form by email or fax ASAP to Metro Expositions (209) 465-7790.
