Fees for Virtual CEDIA Show Range $750-$7,500

Online “booth fees” for 2020 CEDIA Expo Virtual are $750-$7,500, said an Emerald X presentation for prospective exhibitors. Companies have a choice to opt out of the virtual show and get a refund over the next 30-60 days for registration fees they paid for the physical 2020 show. COVID-19 forced the cancellation of the physical show in Denver. Companies also can have a portion of their 2020 funds applied to the mid-September virtual show and the remainder toward the next scheduled physical show, Sept. 1-3, 2021, in Indianapolis, Eric Bodley, CEO of Future Ready Solutions, told us Thursday, calling the options "fair." Show owner Emerald canceled the in-person event due to COVID-19 (see 2005280029). CEDIA Expo 2020 was scheduled for Denver Sept. 8-12; its virtual counterpart is Sept. 15-17.
