Set-Up:

Once you are checked-in you may begin setting up your booth space. Please set-up and keep coverage at your booth area for the duration of Catapalooza. You are responsible to bring a table and chairs UNLESS you are aCatapalooza sponsor. Catapalooza Bobcat-level sponsors will receive one table and two chairs. Catapalooza Champ-level sponsors will recieve two tables and two chairs.

IMPORTANT: If you plan on setting up tents, canopies, umbrellas, or display items, please note that you WILL NOT be able to stake anything into the lawn. We ask that you bring cinder blocks, milk jugs filled with water, or sandbags to secure your area. If you bring a tent or canopy it may not be bigger than your booth space (11’x10’). Champ-level sponsors will get two 11'x10' booth spaces. The picture below shows what happens to a tent when it is not secured with cinder blocks/sandbags.

Clean up: 

Please clean up all trash, left over booth items, and any physical items that marked your booth location. Please note that volunteers will not be available to help you carry your items to the loading area. You might consider bringing extra help and/or a dolly to help move your display and promotional products. You will be able to bring your items to the loading area (where you checked-in) and then drive your vehicle to pick it up.

Serving Food:

  • If you did not indicate your intentions to serve food or beverages when you registered, you will NOT be permitted to do so at this event– no exceptions-this includes candy.

Conducting Business:

We request and will enforce that vendors DO NOT sell goods or services (no exchange of money) at Catapalooza. Instead, be prepared to distribute coupons, hand-outs, freebees, and/or company contact information to promote your company or organization. Students love fun promotional items! Will you be offering to add interested parties to your mailing list? Please have sign-in sheets prepared and printed in advance. Also, please bring extra pens and pencils, business cards, and information pamphlets.

Other Considerations:

Catapalooza is an outdoor event that runs from 10am-5pm. Please plan on being outside and arrive prepared for all weather! Plan on bringing water, sunblock, a shade source (such as an umbrella or canopy) paperweights, and a jacket or rain gear. 

Acknowledgment of Risk Form:

Will you be allowing any members of the public to participate in an activity at your booth (examples: fencing, climbing wall, pull up bar, weight lifting)? Please print copies of the Acknowledgement of Risk form and have it at your booth for the public to sign when they participate in the activity. Plan to keep the signed forms for the duration of Catapalooza. You are welcome to turn in the signed copies to the Info Tent (located on the north side of the Strand Union Building) whenCatapalooza ends. If only members of your organization are participating in the activity you do not need to complete this form.
