7. permitted areas of offer (list of goods)
The goods to be exhibited must correspond to the list of goods.
8. specialized trade area or direct sales
Faszination Modellbahn is not a “sales show”, but an exhibition whose profile must not be changed. The direct sale of goods is therefore only permitted in accordance with the following provisions: Generally permitted for direct sale are publishing products and products from in-house production by small series manufacturers, which are not sold through the relevant model construction trade.
Upon application, merchandise of the relevant model building industry will be admitted for direct sale, the sale of which should be carried out by authorized model building dealers. The application must be submitted to the organizer with the stand registration. Upon application, all manufacturers whose merchandise will be distributed during the exhibition must be fully and correctly identified. The organizer decides on the admission with the participation of the existing exhibitor advisory board. There is no legal claim to admission.
The sales area available for specialized trade is limited to a total of approx. 250 sqm. Subletting of the stand space rented there is not permitted. The sale must not be carried out using propagandistic means that could disturb the character of the event. Therefore, corresponding signs such as “direct sales”, the use of microphones and loudspeakers are prohibited. Hospitality booths, raffles, lotteries and contests are also prohibited. The organizer may, at his discretion, grant an exemption in individual cases upon written application.
9. design and equipment of the exhibition stand
In terms of a high-quality exhibition, the following minimum equipment standards for an exhibition stand should be taken into account.
9.1. Each exhibitor must erect its own fixed side or rear walls on its stand area or order them from the stand construction company.
9.2. The sale of goods must be made through a sales counter.
9.3. Storage of goods presented for sale may not be in banana boxes or similar.
9.4. In addition, in the case of an open stand construction, it is mandatory to cover the stand area with a carpet or similar floor covering.
9.5. It is not allowed to place sales stands outside the stand area.
9.6. Sufficient stand lighting must be provided.
If you do not have a suitable stand, we will be happy to offer you a complete stand (all-round carefree package, 45,- €/sqm), or you can order suitable stand walls (31,- €/sqm) etc. separately using our online ordering system at least 2 weeks before the trade fair.
We would like to point out that if your stand construction, does not meet the specified conditions, the organizer is entitled, for example, missing stand walls or carpeting at the expense of the exhibitor.
