The Exhibitor Badge is for your team members working your booth at the event. This badge gives access to the Exhibit Hall before and after Show Hours. Exhibitor Badges may not be used for outside vendors doing work in your booth or your customers. If Show Management sees that you are using Exhibitor Badges for non-booth staff, Show Management has the right to revoke the badges.

The Exhibitor-Appointed Contractor (EAC) Badge is required for any vendors you hire that is not an NAB Show Exclusive or Preferred Vendor.
