RULES AND REGULATIONS FOR EXHIBITORS

As an exhibitor at our fair at Douai on 01 January 1970 you are required to comply with a number of rules essential to the proper functioning of the International Antiques and Collectibles One-day Trade Fairs.

1. As you approach the site blue arrows on a yellow ground, bearing the logo, will help you find your way.
2. You should join the "" queue to get into the park.
3. If you do not have your entry pass you may park in the short-term parking area on the right and go to our secretariat to collect your file.
4. If you wish to transfer goods from one vehicle to another you must tell a member of our organisation, who will find you a space in an area intended for this purpose, inside the park and out of view of potential buyers.
5. You may enter the park to take up your position either on Monday between 5.00 a.m. and 8.00 p.m. or on Tuesday between 5.00 a.m. and 6.45 a.m. Once on the site you must fix your entry permit in a side window of the vehicle, place your fire extinguisher in view on the seat (interior exhibitors) and lock your vehicle. You must then leave quickly. NO PERSONS ARE TO REMAIN IN THE PARK. After 7.00 a.m. no vehicle may enter.
6. All exhibitors who have rented one or more positions inside the building must:
- have in their possession a currently valid 6 kg powder extinguisher with inspection certificate, and be fully conversant with its use
- ensure their vehicles are fitted with a locking fuel cap
- position themselves inside their stand so that the sales area is next to the gangway
- ensure they rent a position sufficiently large for the sales area remaining to be at least equal to the area of the vehicle
7. All positions rented are 20 m2 units or multiples thereof; boundaries are indicated by marks on the floor with a stand number.
8. At 8.00 a.m. precisely a signal will be sounded and the fair will begin. You must take care when unloading your stock not to overlap the boundaries of your stand. This is most important. You must also allow free access to the fire extinguishing equipment in the hall, such as charged hose reels and extinguishers.
9. Before unloading place your fire extinguisher in a visible and easily accessible position next to your vehicle.
10. All stock sold must remain on your stand or be taken away by the buyer or his duly authorised agent (carrier). Under no circumstances may it be allowed to protrude into the gangways.
11. Throughout the event the "accès camions" (truck entrances) of the buildings will remain open and the smaller "accès piétons" (pedestrian entrances) will be unlocked.
12. At the end of the fair, you will be able to repack your goods into your vehicle and exit freely without formality.
13. Any damage caused by an exhibitor will automatically be invoiced to him.
14. Every exhibitor undertakes to have vehicle insurance in respect of the vehicle brought and to have currently valid professional indemnity insurance. The organisation reserves the right to ask to see the relevant certificates.
15. Each exhibitor undertakes to rent a surface area compatible with the size of his vehicle and to that ensure this vehicle is in a condition which does not represent any danger to the event.
We draw to your attention that :
- use of gas inside the halls strictly forbidden

- Any vehicle using LPG (Liquid Petroleum Gas) is forbidden inside the halls.

Attention: for any vehicles whose size corresponds to the surface area reserved but which protrudes outside the boundaries of the stand the exhibitor will be required to rent an additional unit (contact us) so that the vehicle in no case extends outside the area rented.
