the designated parking areas for exhibitors.
Vendor Parking on Move-In Day: Parking is available on move-in day
in our visitor lot in front of the building or in the lot overlooking the 403
highway. Since this is a normal business day for The Hamilton
Spectator you may unload your vehicles at the front door but no vehicle
may block the circular driveway at anytime so once your items are
unloaded you must move your car to the visitor lot. You will be expected
to report the move-in time prior to Friday, April 24, 2015 in order to
control move-in congestion.
Vendor Parking on Show Day: please park in the lot at the west side
of the building in order to make visitor parking available to show visitors.
(If you continue past the visitor lot you will see much more available
parking)
