Exhibitors at last years IFMA voted to make IFMA 2000 a trade-only event. However, exhibitors this year have decided this wasnt such a good idea after all. Oh, and the dates changed too.

Public can come back in, says IFMA

IFMA will once again have a public day. The great unwashed will be allowed in on Sunday 16th September.

And contrary to the pubished dates for the 2001 show (14-17th September), IFMA Köln has been bumped backwards a touch and will be staged 13-16th September.
