XPO Hall is MAX’s exhibit hall and meeting space where folks gather to browse, meet, and network. The exhibitors are typically agents and artists with presenters “shopping” to find that perfect act for that open slot in their season. There are lots of options for exhibitors here. This XPO Hall is super comfy, too. There’s loungey areas with soft seating, tables, etc. Learn more about exhibiting at MAX here.
The XPO hall map will be available on the eventScribe APP in September 2025 or online: Midwest Arts XPO Exhibitor Floor Plan (2025 floor plan will be available in spring 2025)
