The 11th VENUS Erotic Fair in Berlin
Right after passing the entrance naked girls welcome you! A bit confusing in the beginning but people got used to it fast! The VENUS taking place in beautiful Berlin became one of the biggest erotic fairs in Europe and is a "must go & see" in everybody´s sex fair and event calender! The organisers of the VENUS have yet again succeeded in further developing Berlin as the largest international platform and trade fair in our sector.
The mood among exhibitors and dealers was largely positive despite the disappointing business year incurred by so many. Exhibitors from all over the world displayed great motivation in presenting their products and the order books for trade do not appear to have suffered at all.
406 exhibitors from 36 countries were registered for the 11th VENUS. With more than 150 new exhibitors, the VENUS this year records its greatest growth ever. A fact which is sure to have delighted those trade buyers travelling to the exhibition. 5,432 trade visitors from all over the world rewarded exhibitors with outstanding sales figures and new business contacts.
Likewise, 24,500 consumers ensured good business deals for many exhibitors rounding off the overall success of the 11th VENUS. Aisles were repeatedly crowded with the result that at some times, it was hard to even get through. More than 800 journalists gained credentials for this year's event and thus ensured plenty of interesting and sexy stories
Once again the VENUS WEB AREA was a firm component of the VENUS Fair, having reinvented itself after negative criticism of last year. The concept supports a gradual merge of the online and offline sector over the next few years.
