We will accommodate your space preferences as much as possible. We plan to award them on a first paid/ first served basis. We will provide the event sponsors preferred placement. Most spaces will be set within ten days of the Early Bird deadline (3/15/23).

What is the Early Bird Deadline?

As a new trade show, it is helpful to have early commitments from our exhibitors. This will allow us to more effectively plan the floorplan and to budget for conference educational programs. We are offering a discount on exhibit space for those exhibitors willing to make payments by 3/15/23. After that time, our pricing for exhibit space returns to normal, standard pricing up through 8/1/23. Any exhibitor requesting space after 8/1/23 is not guaranteed.

Where is the 2024 NOLA Coffee Festival® being held?

New Orleans is home to our annual trade show / festival. We selected the NO Ernest N. Morial Convention Center as our trade show site. They have awarded us Hall B-1 (greater than 40,000 square feet with opportunity to add more as needed) and 7 major classrooms for the education program.

How GREEN is the New Orleans Ernest N. Morial Convention Center?

Their commitment to recycling and sustainability is world class. In fact, New Orleans is the first Convention Center to be recognized for the ______ award. This recognition played a huge part in our selection process. We offer a SUSTAINABILITY SPONSORSHIP to help cover the additional cost of our event taking optimum steps to make our trade show / festival as green as possible.

We congratulate the staff of NOMCC in their achievement and recent industry recognition.
