Cancellation of Exhibitor Space / Refunds
Commercial Exhibitors and concessionaires must provide written notice of cancellation. Because the Utah State Fair will suffer certain losses which cannot be determined, the deposit will automatically be forfeited. Exhibitors canceling July 16 and after will forfeit all monies and installments paid as of the date of cancellation. The Utah State Fairpark is not responsible for loss of sales due to inclement weather or excessive noise from the carnival, Grandstand area or other attractions on the Fairpark.

Electricity
Each 10' X 10' booth location receives 500 watts (5 amps) of electrical power, 110 volts with a duplex receptacle, included in the price of the booth. Any additional electrical power requirements must be requested on the Commercial Exhibit Lease Agreement or Concessionaire Lease Agreement and paid for with the final booth payment. If not indicated on the Lease Agreement, any requests for special power must be made in writing by August 15. Additional charges will be made for this service and will be paid by the exhibitor directly to the Rental Services Office before additional service will be provided. Listed below are the charges for additional power. For example, one light bulb is between 60 and 100 watts. Therefore, five 100 watt bulbs equal the 500 watts or 5 amps of power allotted per booth. Once the fair opens, it will be extremely difficult to get additional power. Non-food Vendor 110V Service 5 amps $10 10 amps $15 20 amps $25 30 amps $40 Non-food Vendor 208V Single-phase 30 amps $75 50 amps $115 100 amps $230 200 amps $460 Food Vendor 208V Single-phase 30 amps $95 50 amps $155 100 amps $305 200 amps $610 Exhibitors are encouraged to bring their own GFCI protected cords or power strips to plug into Fairpark's power source to distribute the power where needed inside their booth. The Utah State Fair does not supply any wiring, cabeling, extension cords, adapters or special connectors of any kind. All extension cords or wiring must be properly taped down to the floor or tucked away to avoid potential trip or safety hazards. Cords will not be allowed to be taped down across walkways. The Rental Services Department will inspect all booths during the Fair to ensure no one is using more electricity than they have ordered. In the event it is found an exhibitor is knowingly using more power than they have ordered and paid for, the exhibitor may be fined and/or the booth closed. A $200.00 fine and/or expulsion from the Fair will be assessed to anyone found entering into a Fairpark electrical panel or tampering with electrical lines or outlets in any way. Electricians have been instructed not to provide service to any appliance, trailer or panel that is not properly grounded. Electricians will not provide service to non-UL approved equipment or faulty or hazardous equipment. No wiring will be done in individual stands or trailers by State Fair electricians. The Utah State Fair expressly denies responsibility for electrical failures, and any damage to equipment or property, caused by drops or increases in power supply, low voltage or power surges. Correspondingly, all exhibitors and concessionaires expressly agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Utah State Fair Corporation, its members, employees and contractors from such claims. In no case will the Utah State Fair be held responsible for loss of profits, revenues or loss of equipment.
