Can I choose my own booth or will TSCRA choose it for me?

You can choose your own booth when you purchase your space online. TSCRA can help you if needed, please call 817-332-7064 or email [email protected].

Will I be able to get the same booth every year?

We make changes to the floorplan every year so it can be hard to get the exact same space. Booths are sold on a first-come, first-served basis.

I want my booth to be located next to or near my colleague. How do I make that happen?

There is no guarantee you will be next to or near your colleague, but there are steps you can take to improve your chances. On the Expo floorplan, you can see who has purchased a booth and where they will be located. We recommend you coordinate with your colleagues to provide the greatest chance to be near each other.

If I have a problem buying a booth online, who do I call?

When will I get my badge?

Badges can be picked up on-site at registration kiosks. Kiosks will be located at the registration area.

Are badges required to access the Expo floor?

Does TSCRA provide labor to help unload, move, or setup materials or booths?

No, we do not.

What if I have large or oversized items to load-in?

We encourage exhibitors with large items to arrive early at move-in to simplify the move-in process. If a forklift is used, drayage charges may apply. Please contact The Expo Group for pricing details or click here to view or download an information packet.

You may supply your own booth furnishings, or rent furnishings from The Expo Group, the official show decorator.

How do I get a name badge for booth staff?

Anyone who has anything to do with your booth (setup, tear down, staff, etc.) must have a badge. Badges may be obtained through the registration portal.

If you are the sales contact for your booth, you are NOT automatically registered to attend the convention.

Why haven't I received any correspondence from show management?

There could be many reasons you haven’t received any information from us and for you to have a positive conference experience, we need to fix it!

Are you the booth coordinator who registered for your company’s space? Sometimes due to company turnover, we find that we are sending e-mails to an email address that is no longer active. You must contact [email protected] to change the booth contact for your company.
Are our e-mails going to your junk or SPAM folder? You may have to identify the “tscra,” and “theexpogroup” domains as safe to receive our e-mails. Please ask your IT department how to do this.

If you are worried that you are missing something, please make sure you check the Cattle Raisers Convention website at www.cattleraisersconvention.com. Most of the time, the information that we send in e-mails can also be found there.

How can I obtain the attendee list?

The attendee list is not available for purchase. As an alternative, exhibitors may purchase lead retrieval services. This may be ordered online prior to the show.
