Questions San Diego buyers ask about convention staff.
Does Showcraft staff the major convention centers in San Diego?+
Yes — we staff conventions at the primary venues throughout San Diego, with captains who know each venue's load-in flow, badge protocols, union jurisdictions, and freight-elevator timing. Send us the convention, hall, and booth or session room and we'll match staff who have worked the venue before.
What kind of convention staff can you provide in San Diego?+
Registration, badge-in, booth staff, hospitality leads, session monitors, VIP and speaker handlers, ushers, and on-floor coordinators. We can staff a single booth or a full convention takeover across San Diego. Every deployment of six or more includes a Showcraft captain on-site.
How early do you need to know about a San Diego convention booking?+
For large San Diego conventions (50+ staff across multiple days), 4-6 weeks is ideal. Standard fill is 2-3 weeks. The major shows in San Diego pull from the regional labor pool, so early lock-in means better talent selection. Rush fills are possible with a surcharge.
Are your San Diego convention staff W-2 and insured?+
Yes. Every convention staffer Showcraft sends in San Diego is a W-2 employee with workers' comp, general liability, and auto coverage. COIs are issued naming the venue, show, and exhibitor as additional insureds. In California, our payroll is fully AB-5 / AB-2257 compliant.
