Insights-X: New Voucher Booklet and inspiring activities
- Diverse programme at the Atelier in the InsightsArena
- Peter Maffay makes guest appearance at duo schreib & spiel
This year’s Insights-X from 4 to 6 October is poised once again to turn business and networking into a memorable experience. An engaging activity programme will provide trade buyers with a daily dose of inspiration and creative ideas. Organiser Spielwarenmesse eG is introducing a new offer to its already extensive visitor services.
A visit with added value
In time for its fourth edition, Insights-X is bringing out its first Voucher Booklet for all buyers and retailers. It contains no fewer than 51 vouchers for special exhibition discounts, give- aways and surprises that visitors can redeem at the stands of participating exhibitors. The Booklet will be distributed at the Exhibition Centre in Nuremberg and is already available for download at www.insights-x.com/en/voucherbooklet.
Get-together at the AfterHour
The varied supporting programme is guaranteed to turn a visit to Insights-X into a memorable event. As a highlight on the first evening of the fair, Spielwarenmesse eG invites all exhibitors and trade visitors to a relaxed get-together at the AfterHour. Starting at 7 pm, the event at Entrance Mitte gives them the opportunity to meet and chat with old and new business partners over a drink and a delicious bite to eat. Live band Cadenza will add to the party atmosphere.
A plethora of promotions
Getting involved and being creative is right at the very heart of Insights-X. Embracing this idea, several exhibitors are staging exciting promotions at their stands. In collaboration with the licensees, German buying group duo schreib & spiel is presenting the current trailer for “Tabaluga – the Movie” (release date: 6 December 2018) together with the latest licensed merchandise based on the film. A guest appearance by legendary German singer-songwriter and Tabaluga creator Peter Maffay will be a highlight on Saturday, 6 October. He will be there to answer questions about his Foundation and the cinema film. The InsightsArena is hosting a whole series of continuous promotions running the full length of the fair. Stabilo is featuring its Pen 68 Mega Machine where trade buyers simply pick their favourite colours and the machine dispenses their customised 15-pen sets. Staedtler is presenting its colourful products for all arts and crafts enthusiasts. A diverse programme is also in store at the Atelier in the InsightsArena, where exhibitors are staging short workshops and creative sessions, providing retailers with inspiring ideas for their own in-store promotions. A.W. Faber-Castell’s seminar “Calligraphy for Beginners” shows how even newcomers to the art can conjure up stunning decorative lettering using ink pens. Armor – Artech is holding a workshop entitled “Become a Christmas Tree Decorations Designer – 3D Pen Activity”, whilst bullet journaling and hand lettering take centre stage at “Creative Writing with Ute Gräber” by Online Schreibgeräte.
