The fair will run this weekend (September 8 and 9) from 11 am to 7 pm at a new venue, Patong’s Jungceylon shopping complex.

Show organisers Events Thailand have confirmed “some fantastic support acts that will perform on the main stage and definitely attract the eye of passers-by”, IBAP president James Firth said this week.

“This year’s fair will continue to provide the perfect platform for you to showcase your products and services, garner new clients for your business and network with other business people and local officials.

“Sales will be made, information will be exchanged and new ideas will be born,” Mr Firth said, urging companies to book the remaining exhibition spaces.

The association expects some 60,000 people to visit the fair over the two days.
