WEFTEC 2021 exhibiting companies are eligible to select WEFTEC 2022 booth space during Onsite (Advance) Sales at WEFTEC 2021.

• Companies will be assigned an Onsite Sales appointment time to select space in order of priority points, from highest to lowest. Companies will leave the sales office with a booth number for WEFTEC 2022.

Cancellation Policy

Exhibitors cancelling or reducing space reservations before January 31, 2022, will receive a full refund.

Cancellation/reductions after May 31, 2022, are subject to liquidated damages of 100% of total booth fees.

Any cancellations or reductions in booth space must be received in writing to WEFTECSales @wef.org.

Though it is WEF’s strong intention to hold WEFTEC this fall, should WEF cancel the in-person component of WEFTEC 2022, WEF will credit 100% towards WEFTEC 2023 or refund 100% of booth fees paid at the time of WEF’s notification of cancellation. WEF will not refund any exhibitor’s cancellation or reduction fees incurred prior to WEF’s cancellation of in-person WEFTEC.

Why are Priority Points Important?

WEFTEC Exhibit space is assigned according to an exhibitor’s earned priority points during onsite (advance) sales, second advance round, and during booth moves. During general sales, contracts received are assigned space on a date-received basis.

How are Points Earned?

Exhibitors can earn points as follows:

• 1 point per year for exhibiting at WEFTEC
• 1 point per year for being a WEF Exhibitor Member
• 1 point per show for exhibiting at WEF Specialty Conferences (Residuals and Biosolids, Collection Systems, Odors and Air Pollutants, Innovations in Process Engineering, Stormwater Summit, etc.)
• 1 point per show for exhibiting in WEF's WIN Pavilion program
• Exhibitors who received 1 point for transferring a WEFTEC 2020 booth deposit to WEFTEC 2021 then subsequently:
• Cancelled prior to contracting space and refunded – 1 point removed
• Cancelled prior to contracting space and money kept on file – no points removed/awarded
• Cancelled after contracting space, cancellation fee applied and remaining monies refunded – 1 point removed
• Cancelled after contracting space, cancellation fee applied, and remaining monies transferred to WEFTEC 2022 – no points removed/awarded

Can Points be Lost?

Normally, companies who miss two consecutive WEFTEC events will have all points removed. Because of the uniqueness of 2021, WEF will not remove all points for companies who do not exhibit at WEFTEC 2021, except for actions executed by companies as outlined above. After WEFTEC 2023, all accrued points will be removed from an exhibitor's record if the exhibitor does not exhibit in two consecutive WEFTEC shows (Companies must exhibit at WEFTEC 2022 and WEFTEC 2023 to keep their points).

Exhibitors may lose 1 point per infraction for failure to adhere to show policy (Early tear-down, display out of compliance with show regulations, etc.).
