Main Hall Exhibitors

Submit a Video Blog!: The Membership Committee would like to offer a way for AMS members to highlight and recognize their participation and experiences, become more involved, and make their Annual Meeting experience more personable. One way we believe we can demonstrate this is to provide an opportunity for the AMS Community to create brief video testimonials that could be posted before and during the Annual Meeting.

Annual Meeting exhibits will be held in Hall D of the Ernest N. Morial Convention Center, 900 Convention Center Blvd. New Orleans, LA 70130 (tel: 504-582-3000).

Exhibitors are encouraged to register their exhibit staff for badges using the online application before checking in on site. There is a $35 charge for each exhibit staff badge registered on site by AMS staff. Booth staff badges are available on site at the Exhibit Check-In Desk during the move-in period and during Exhibit Hall hours. Exhibit management is available during move in and during conference hours at the Exhibits Manager Office located in the Exhibit Hall. Children under 16 years of age are not permitted in the exhibit area during move in and move out.
