Info for Exhibitors
USEFUL INFO: Here’s some info on your table top display at Designing with Stone 2025:
What to bring?
We will organize “speed dating” sessions where you will meet with the majority of the participants for 5 minutes. This is a good time to tell the participants about your products and/or services. To stay on schedule, we need to stick to the 5 minute time with each group of participants. The participants will visit 24 companies the first day and 24 companies the second day.
If you bring samples, plan on a 6ft table. All of your samples and signage should fit on that table. If you have other things to show, please send me a photo for approval. Ideally, everyone will bring their own samples and promo materials to set up.
- Address of the Raddison Hotel DOWNTOWN Salt Lake City: 215 W S Temple St, Salt Lake City, UT 84101
- Set up: You will be able to set up your table on Sunday Night from 7pm - 9pm (Nov. 9)and on Monday Morning from from 7:30 - 8:30 am the day of the event (Nov. 10)
- Electricity: do not plan on electricity at your table. We suggest Ipads or laptops that can be charged ahead of time.
- Table size: There will be numerous table top displays and each company will get one table and two chairs. We’ll have extra chairs for those who have additional people coming. There will be a 6ft (6ft x 30" x 30") table for every company. The tables will be draped in a black table cloth.
- We will print a card to identify each participating company. Feel free to bring your own graphics, business cards, company brochures, etc. You cannot hang signs on the wall. Please use only table top displays and not standing displays
- Sending Samples ahead of time: we suggest sending to the hotel where you will be staying and then bring them to the Radisson during setup. There is no convention authority to receive international samples especially, so please contact your hotel directly.
- Conference Hours: 8:30 – 4:30pm each day; 12:30 – 3:30 will be the hours for the display. All are welcome to listen to the seminars for the designers. We suggest that you participate in the seminars because you will learn about the entire selection and procurement process for Temple Stone Contracts.
- The Table top displays will be locked in the Ballroom so you don't need to take down your display after the first day.
- Take down will be from 4:30 - 6:30pm on Tuesday, Nov. 11, the second day. Each company is responsible for removing all samples and trash. The hotel will fine us if anything is left on the tables and we will pass on that fine to the individual exhibitor. Please remove everything you came with.
What to bring?
- Business Cards
- Company brochures, usb with company info
- Perhaps a monitor/laptop/ipad with photos of your products or services.
- Samples: If you are bringing stone samples, think of the types most often used on temples Exteriors should be light colored materials that perform in various climates (granites, marble and limestone). The interior colors are often a cream colored stone for the main stone, a darker stone for the base and an assortment of accent colors for patterns (gold, red, green, blue, etc.)
- Let us know if you have any questions.

NEW THIS YEAR: PASSPORT TAKE-AWAYS
Each visitor will have a passport and your company name and logo will be listed at the top of the passport (see sample below). There will be space for taking notes.
This year we are asking each company to give 3 take-aways from their company. Because there is so little time, we suggest you create stickers for the passport with your 3 main points you would like attendees to remember about your company. At the very least, you should have a Table top print-out with the 3 main points so that visitors can take notes. These can include: We are quarrier fabricators. or We design exterior cladding sytems. or We have done 4 temple exteriors and 3 temple interiors.....etc.
The page size will be 5.5inches x 8.5 inches, so we suggest making a sticker that would fit in a 4" x 4" square. That leaves room for other notes. (If you are in the USA, Avery address labels Template 5164 work. They are 3 1/3" x 4".)
Like last year, there will probably be around 100-150 visitors at the conference so bring the number you think best.
An alternative is to print them on paper and glue ore tape them in. Note: We would not suggest staplers as they staple into the page behind them.
