 IWCE SHOW POLICY 
Cancellation Policy

Registration for IWCE is non-refundable. This includes Expo Only Passes, Conference Passes, and Special Events. All promo codes are valid for pre-registration only ( expires April 18th, 11:59 PM ) and will not be honored onsite. Promo codes do not apply for Non-Exhibiting Manufacturers/Supplier (NONEX). 

Substitution Policy

Registrants unable to attend may send a substitute by bringing the registrant’s confirmation letter to the Registration Desk at the Orange County Convention Center to receive a badge for admission.

NONEX Policy

As a Non-Exhibiting Manufacturers/Supplier (NONEX), individuals must first be approved by show management to gain access to the show floor. This policy aims to protect the manufacturers exhibiting at IWCE and maintain the show's integrity. NONEX can attend IWCE for one (1) year to evaluate the event for future participation. Consistent with our current policy, approved or unapproved NONEX will not be allowed to hold offsite events at show-appointed hotel properties. Please note that the NONEX will not be allowed to add spouses to their registration. Suitcasing is a practice on the part of any attendee who is observed to be soliciting business in the exhibit hall aisles or other public spaces at the facility. You must have a booth on the trade show floor to distribute information to and conduct business with attendees. Any person in violation of the IWCE suitcasing policy will be required to leave the facility. All materials must be distributed from a contracted booth secured by IWCE Show Management. Strolling entertainment or moving advertisements outside of an Exhibitor’s assigned booth space or in the public space of the facility is not permitted at any time during the show hours, move-in/move-out.

Other Policies:

  • The International Window Coverings Expo is a trade-only event.

  • Children under 18 must be accompanied and supervised by an adult at all times when in the exhibit areas. No children under the age of 15 are allowed. Registration for children is complimentary and must be done on-site.

  • No strollers or rolling carts larger than airline carry-on size are permitted on the show floor.
