Advance registration for the CONEXPO-CON/AGG 2008 and co-located IFPE 2008 expositions has been extended from 8 February to 29 February.

Show organiser, the Association of Equipment Manufacturers (AEM), notes that advance registration is attracting more response than the last show in 2005.

"[We] have extended the deadline to allow more visitors to save time and money by registering in advance," AEM says.

The advance fee for admission to exhibits is USD40 compared to the on-site registration fee of USD70. Advance rates for the show's education sessions vary depending on the number of sessions chosen.

For convenience, registration via the show website will remain open from 1 March and throughout the shows. There will also be self-registration kiosks at the shows.

Attendees who do not get their badges prior to the shows can pick them up at the shows' self-registration/badge pick-up areas, international badge pick-up counters or pre-registered visitor counters for exhibitors and attendees.

CONEXPO-CON/AGG and the co-located IFPE 2008 will be held from 11-15 March at the Las Vegas Convention Centre in Las Vegas, US.
