To earn a free Table Space, send your Referral Number to potential Sponsors or Vendors who you believe would be interested in Sponsoring or being a VOB Vendor at your Veterans Business Marketplace at Wings Over Houston Airshow.  The more you share your Vendor Referral code the more potential you have of getting your table space *free.

We will then assign you a referral code you can share with anyone & everyone - maximize your potential to earn a *Free Vendor Table Space!  Once the VBM is over, we will provide you a full refund of your out-of-pocket table space, either 1 or 2 table spaces, whichever you registered & paid for.  If you registered for 1 table & qualified for 2 before the Airshow, we will upgrade you to 2 table spaces (pending space available when you qualify)  (Power not included in offer)
