ACCESSING THE EXHIBITOR DASHBOARD

How to Access
Visit https://ces25.exh.mapyourshow.com/ to access the Exhibitor Dashboard and log in using your CTA/CES Account credentials.

  • * If you need help with your account, please visit the [CTA/CES Account FAQs](https://www.cta.tech/Landing-Pages/Policies/CTA-CES-Account-FAQs) and follow the support steps.

Exhibitor Dashboard access is granted to an exhibiting company’s Primary Contact one (1) business day after the contract is countersigned by CTA. Prior to that, a Primary Contact who tries to access the Exhibitor Dashboard may receive an error message indicating that your account is not currently associated with an active exhibitor record.
Exhibitor Dashboard access information will be provided in an email from the sender service@mapyourshow.com; please check your spam/ junk folders.
If it has been longer than one (1) business day since the contract was countersigned and you have not yet received this email or if you continue to receive an error message, contact CES Exhibitor Support at ExhibitorSupport@CTA.tech.
Tip: You can verify that your contract has been countersigned by checking your email for a verification email from Docusign.
Other types of dashboard users, including Secondary Contacts, Registration Coordinators and more, will receive an email notifying them of Dashboard Access, from the same sender (service@mapyourshow.com) at the time they are added to the dashboard. Please see the USER section of this document for details.
Who Has Access
The person listed as Primary Contact on the CES 2025 Exhibit Space Contract will be the first person to receive access to the Exhibitor Dashboard.
To update your company’s Primary Contact, you must contact CES Exhibitor Support at ExhibitorSupport@CTA.tech.
The Primary Contact may assign additional Exhibitor Dashboard users. Please see the USER section of this document for details.
The following pages walk you through each section of the Exhibitor Dashboard……………

Select the contact role you would like to assign

  • Registration Coordinator is a required role and MUST be reassigned if the Primary Contact will not be managing registration.

  • Important: if no Registration Coordinator is assigned, this will default to the Primary Contact.
  • All other user roles listed below are optional; however, assigning additional users and roles to your dashboard will help with management during the season.
  • The Secondary Contact can make changes to the company information, review checklist items, etc. and assign or reassign additional user roles.

On August 28, we unveiled a new mark, one that embodies the connection between technology and humanity. CTA and CES now share a mark. Official CES exhibitors are authorized to use the mark, however, you must ensure you are using the correct one and have the correct usage rights.
We’ve added this new section to resources to help you find guidance on logos usage, marketing toolkits and more to help you plan for these changes. Check your exhibitor dashboard throughout the season for the latest information. If you have questions at any time, please reach out to your sales representative.
