The Ernest N. Morial Convention Center in New Orleans is one of the largest convention centres in the United States, stretching over one mile along the Mississippi River and offering nearly one million square feet of prime exhibition space. It is a major destination for trade shows, medical congresses, and professional conferences, particularly in the healthcare, energy, and food sectors. Contact Media delivers onsite, on-demand event badging at the Morial Convention Center and across New Orleans. 

Morial Convention Center and New Orleans Venues
Our badging service is well matched to New Orleans' event facilities, including: 

  • Ernest N. Morial Convention Center (Central Business District) — one of the USA's largest exhibition venues, hosting major events in healthcare, technology, energy, and food industries 
  • Caesars Superdome and Smoothie King Center — used for large-scale conference and awards events 
  • Hilton New Orleans Riverside and other large hotel venues — popular for association meetings and corporate conferences 

We handle all international logistics for New Orleans events. 

Large-Scale Badge Printing on the Mississippi
The Morial Convention Center's size means events here can involve thousands of delegates arriving over a short window. Our multi-station on-demand badging system handles this efficiently — fast QR scanning, sub-five-second badge printing, multiple delegate categories, and live attendance data throughout. We work with your operations team to plan station placement across the venue for optimal flow. 

Integration and Compliance
We integrate with Cvent, Swoogo, Bizzabo, Eventbrite, and other US platforms, and all delegate data is handled in full compliance with applicable data protection standards.

Service 1 of 3 · The stack

Badges printed the moment people arrive.

Nothing pre-printed, nothing shipped, nothing to sort into pigeonholes. Each badge prints on demand at the door, with the name spelt the way the attendee typed it.

How it works

Arrive. Print. Walk in.

We connect to your registration list live, ours or yours, so the badge that prints is always the current record — including people who registered five minutes ago.

1

Attendee arrives

They scan their confirmation, tap in their name, or are found by a member of staff — whichever suits your event.

2

Badge prints on demand

The badge prints there and then from the live record. Typos get fixed at the desk, not sent back to a print shop.

3

They walk in

No pigeonholes, no A–K / L–Z queues, no boxes of badges for people who never turned up.

Why print onsite

Pre-printing badges is work you don't need to do.

Every pre-printed badge is a guess: that the person will come, that their details won't change, that the box arrives at the right venue. Printing onsite removes the guessing.

  • No-shows cost nothing. Badges only exist for people who actually walk through the door.

  • Late registrations just work. Someone who signs up on the morning of the event gets the same badge as everyone else.

  • Nothing to ship or lose. Hardware and consumables travel with us, nothing sits in a courier depot the night before.

  • Badges feed the rest of the stack. Every badge is scannable, so exhibitors can capture leads with lead retrieval from the same system.

Prefer to run it yourself?

Hire the printers, keep the control.

If you'd rather your own team ran badge printing on the day, hire the hardware from us and self-manage. We'll supply the badge software alongside it if you want it, or you can run your own.
