11 Insurance and Waiver of Liability DUE FRIDAY, MAY 3 Every exhibitor must sign and return the Insurance Release Form. Exhibitors will not be allowed to set up at the show unless an executed Insurance Release Form is on file with VOLTA Show Management.

VOLTA WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE SUSTAINED BY THE EXHIBITOR IN CONNECTION WITH VOLTA, OR FOR THE FAILURE OF THE EXHIBITOR TO OBTAIN INSURANCE, OF FOR THE FAILURE OF INSURANCE TO COVER LOSSES SUSTAINED.

Do not request Exhibitor, Artist or Set-up/Dismantling passes for any individual not actively involved in the installation or staffing of your booth.
