As a result, from September 30 – October 2, 2008 the New Munich Trade Fair Centre will host the most important gathering for owners and operators of amusement parks and recreational facilities. More than 55 companies have already booked stand space for showcasing their many products and services at the Munich Trade Fair Centre. During the three-day event, they will present rides as well as stuffed animals, food and beverages and theme-park layout and design services. The trade fair will also feature a number of training opportunities for managers of amusement parks and theme parks and several networking events for industry professionals. EAS 2008 in Munich is being held at the same time as the Oktoberfest, which creates synergy effects for exhibitors and visitors alike. Trade visitors attending EAS are owners, managing directors and operators of fairs, amusement parks, theme parks and water parks. Among other things, the fair's visitors come from the sectors for zoos, aquariums, museums, stadiums, camping sites, casinos and shopping centers.
