Missionary Stand Application Forms
Every year the interest to exhibit at the Mission Resource Exhibition increases as Organisations realise and seek to utilise the unique opportunity it provides to advertise global missions.
Wishing to facilitate as many Societies as possible and to enhance the experience for everyone please note the following as there are some major changes:–

You can signup online here.
Halls
As Monday 25th is a Bank holiday the Bangor Committee want to accommodate more visitors during the day therefore both Halls will be open and available from 1 pm for exhibits to be erected and ready for viewing by the public from 2 pm. Assistants will be available to help you find your position as well as floor plans placed on the main doors to each hall.
Doors
All doors to the halls will be open on Monday to aid the unloading of your materials. However access to exit doors must be kept clear and only used in an emergency. To encourage a flow around both halls and for security reasons the entrance to the halls is through the Millar Craig Hall. Each evening the halls will be open from 6 – 7.15pm as well as after the evening celebrations.
Tables
The space allocated to each exhibit is limited to 6 ft, the size of the tables provided by local churches. Extra space is available for larger exhibits at a proportional cost, please tick the appropriate box on the registration form so that the floor plan can be arranged in advance. The number of Societies requesting large tables is increasing and our supply is limited so if possible please bring your own.
Remember placing pull up stands at the end of your table is increasing your allotted space and may encroach on that of your neighbour. Where possible please put them on or behind the table. Also to assist the passage of people through the narrow aisles we request that no more than two representatives be present at each exhibit and that there should be NO active distribution of literature.
Sale of items is permitted except books that are already on the main bookstall at the back of the Church so please check before putting any books on display.
Do not leave money or valuables unattended as minor losses have been reported
Electric sockets within the Church Halls are limited to around the walls of the hall only and will be allocated on first come basis. Should you need electricity please bring an extension lead.
Tea
With both halls in use it is not possible to have the usual sit down meal however a buffet will be available at 5pm. As this is a new adventure and more limited space we ask for your help, patience and consideration. Cost is £5 pp
Please note the exhibition runs from the afternoon of Monday 25th until the evening of Friday 29th August inclusively and the Halls will open before and after the evening meetings. Exhibitors are asked to dismantle their exhibits on Friday evening as the halls are needed for the children’s event on Saturday. We would appreciate your help to dismantle and group your table for ease of their return to the relevant churches, the name of the church is written on the underside of the tables.
Cost
Remains at £50 which includes an entry of your Mission profile in the Convention Magazine
Each evening during the exhibition a Team from Open Doors are providing tea / coffee in the coffee bar situated between both halls.
There will be an afternoon session at 3pm in the Church followed by a prayer time for Mission Representatives at 4.30pm on Monday 25th August.
