We moved it there after the programs were printed, but made sure to:

1) Send out regular notifications on twitter/fb
2) Send out push notifications to the users who downloaded the mobile app
(guidebook)
3) Mention it to attendees when they checked it.
4) Announce it at the keynotes, upscale and other high traffic events.

If we do this again the future, and i think we should, we'll decide on it
earlier and note in the printed program as well.
Doing this on the expo floor helped drive a ton of traffic to usually lower
traffic areas on the expo floor.
