Closer to the trade fair: Eurobike Demo Day moves

From the Allgäu to Friedrichshafen: The test day on the day before the Eurobike will take place at the exhibition grounds next year.

In 2014, the Eurobike Demo Day will take place directly at the exhibition grounds. The test day for trade visitors and journalists will take place one day before the start of the international bike show, on Tuesday, August 26, 2014, at the trade fair parking lot east. "The test conditions in the nearby surroundings, the directly adjacent forest, on the dirt tracks and the surrounding roads around the exhibition grounds are very good and offer significant logistical facilitation for visitors and exhibitors alike," says the Eurobike team, convinced that they will be able to offer good test terrain in the future too.

It was a great wish of many customers to be able to run the Demo Day in the immediate vicinity of their own stand in future. "We felt extremely comfortable in Argenbühl," says trade fair boss Klaus Wellmann, who has nothing but praise for the previous hosts in the Allgäu region. Everything was perfect there, the grounds and surroundings were ideal. It was no coincidence that there was a first-class field of participants: 147 exhibitors and brands took part in the seventh edition of the Eurobike Demo Day in August 2013 (in 2012 there were 133) and presented their innovations.

According to the organizer, the relocation of the Demo Day will make things easier logistically and is "very convenient" for the exhibitors in the literal sense. Stand construction on the exhibition grounds and participation in the test day can be better and more easily coordinated. The short distance means that staff no longer have to work twice as hard, which also simplifies many tasks for the companies, who are usually quite busy the day before the trade fair opens. The two can now be better combined.

For the eighth time, Demo Day will kick off Eurobike next year. On the day before each event, top international brands will show trade visitors and the media what they have developed for the coming season. Last year, 2,318 trade visitors and 732 journalists from all over the world came to Demo Day to test the latest road bikes, e-bikes, recumbents, folding bikes and mountain bikes.

The Eurobike Demo Day will take place for the first time on Tuesday, August 26, 2014 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. in the East parking lot and is only open to trade visitors and accredited journalists. The international bicycle trade fair Eurobike will be open to trade visitors from Wednesday, August 27 to Friday, August 29 from 8:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m. and to the public on Saturday, August 30 from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.
