sponsorship terms and conditions

Sponsor agreement

Completion of the sponsor agreement form does not confirm acceptance of offer. FLPA reserves the right to determine which applications are accepted. All sponsorships will be confirmed in writing by FLPA Retreat 2024 Organisers, Iceberg Events.

Payment

• All payments must be received by the invoice due date. Failure to comply with payment terms may result in the sponsor not receiving full benefits as outlined in the package.

• All sponsors’ benefits are conditional on receiving payment, and receiving artwork, goods etcetera in a timely manner and are subject to meeting publication deadlines.

• Should a sponsorship benefit precede payment that benefit will no longer be available to the sponsor.

Cancellation

• Notification of cancellation must be submitted in writing to the FLPA Retreat 2024 Organisers prior to 13 March 2024 (50% of total sponsorship will apply as a cancellation fee). Cancellations made after 13 March 2024 will not receive a refund.

• The sponsor and/or exhibitor shall not be entitled to any refund in the event of cancellation of the sponsorship because of industrial action, blackouts or any cause outside the control of the FLPA Retreat 2024 Organisers

COVID-19 Cancellation

• If exhibitors are unable to attend the event due to government mandated isolation, it is the exhibitor’s responsibility to exhaust all options to send a different representative.  If the exhibitor has no representative that can attend the event, their exhibitor fee will be held as credit for a similar future FLPA event.

Exhibition booth allocation

• All exhibition booths will be allocated by level of investment and then on a “first come, first served” basis.

• FLPA has the exclusive right to allocate exhibition booths available to the exhibitor and may alter the exhibition, should it prove necessary. The exhibitor’s wishes will be considered as far as possible.

Exhibitors

• Exhibitors must have current public liability insurance cover for their booth.

• Exhibitors are wholly responsible for the security and safekeeping of items and staff at their booths.

• Exhibitors will be responsible for any damage to the walls or the floor of the building occupied by the booth.
