If you have booked a Space Only stand, your stand will not come with any electrics, carpet or walling. It is your responsibility to order these in advance.

PLEASE NOTE that all additional orders will have to be paid by the exhibiting company, and not any third parties such as stand builders.

The regulations below are supported by and should be followed in conjunction with the current eGuide, available here

The overall height should not exceed 4000mm from venue floor level. Requests to build to heights over 4000mm will be considered provided that they are submitted to the Ops Squad team in writing. Please send any requests to admin@opssquad.co.uk 

Submitting your plans:

This year all space only stand plans will be submitted and approved on Ffair. All space only exhibitors will receive an invite to the Ffair Space Only portal via email.

Here you can upload your stand plan submissions and contractor details to be reviewed by Ops Squad.

You must submit your stand plans to Ffair as soon as possible so they may be checked to ensure that they comply with the venue and local authority regulations detailed later in this section.

If you have not received your invite, please contact admin@opssquad.co.uk. All stand plans must be submitted by 3rd January 2025. 

These plans must include:

1. Detailed drawings of your stand.
2. All dimensions, detail build materials, include at least a ground plan and elevation drawing, include any inflatables or rigged elements, prove the structural stability, be specifically for this exhibition
3. Your stand constructor’s public liability insurance
4. A detailed Risk Assessment which must include details of any unusual exhibits or activities on the stand (any machinery, working kitchens, moving visitor attractions)
5. A Method Statement
6. A Health & Safety Declaration
7. A Construction Phase Plan

All documents must be submitted in English and should clearly state the exhibiting company’s name, stand number and the contact name and company of the person responsible for the stand build. Approval must not be assumed until written permission to build is received. Once permission to build has been received, no alteration may be made to the submitted design without further approval being sought.
