Welcome to the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center!
Public Safety Exhibitor Requirements (continued)
OPEN FLAMES & HEATING DEVICES
Where open flames or heating devices are being demonstrated or displayed, the fire department shall be notified beforehand and additional fire protection equipment may be required.
No propane will be allowed on the premises. Any quantities of flammable liquids that are kept on the premises must first be approved by the Fire Prevention Bureau, then must be kept in appropriate safety cans.
EXPLOSIVES
No one shall be allowed to store, sell, or bring into the building any substance of an explosive nature such as fireworks or Class B or Class A explosives of any type without approval from the Fire Prevention Bureau.
EMERGENCY EQUIPMENT
No extinguishers, emergency phones, sprinkler valves or hose connections shall be obstructed by booths, stands, or any other items of exhibit.
CYLINDERS
Cylinders of compressed gases are prohibited unless approved by the Fire Prevention Bureau and shall be secured in an upright position.
EXIT AND EXIT DOORS
All exits, hallways, and aisles leading from the building are to be kept clear and unobstructed at all times. No curtains, drapes, or decorations shall be hung in such a manner as to cover any exit signs. No exit door shall be locked, bolted, or otherwise fastened or obstructed at any time when an exhibit building is open to the public.
There shall be no obstruction blocking exit doors from the outside of any building, such as automobiles parked in doorways or barricades across sidewalks. No vehicles shall be parked in fire lanes outside of building.
SMOKING
Illinois state law prohibits smoking within a public facility. Therefore, no smoking is permitted within the Donald E. Stephens Convention Center, with the exception of designated areas.
Where smoking is permitted, there shall be provided on each table and at other convenient places non-combustible ashtrays or match receptacles.
No hay, straw, sawdust or shavings shall be kept unless flame proofed.
FOOD SERVICE
For insurance purposes, no food or beverage may be brought into the Convention Center from outside the facility. All food and beverage consumed on the premises must be provided by Rosemont Catering Co. For further information they can be reached at (847) 692-6415.
