Frankfurt_Musikmesse_2013_Accordion_Live_Report - with impressions from the exhibition.

The leading international trade fair for the musical-instrument industry and the live-entertainment sectors, Musikmesse and Prolight + Sound, closed their doors after setting a new visitor record of 113,000 visitors from 142 countries (2012: 109,481 visitors, 120 countries1). “This veritable flood of visitors exceeded by a wide margin not only our expectations but also those of the exhibitors”, said Detlef Braun, Member of the Executive Board of Messe Frankfurt GmbH, on the final day.“ 113,000 visitors beats not only last year’s result by three percent but also the previous visitor record set in 2009 (112,478 visitors1).

The increase in visitor numbers was spread evenly over the trade and public days. Accordingly, there was also even growth in the numbers of German and foreign visitors. Visitors to the two leading fairs came primarily from Germany (71,200 visitors; 2012: 68.2671), as well as from The Netherlands, France, Italy, Switzerland, Great Britain, Belgium, Austria, the Russian Federation, Sweden and Poland. The bulk of new visitors came from Italy, Belgium, Austria and Russia.

The accordion exposers moved this year from Hall 3.1 to Hall 4.1 with a new Stage positioned near all exhibitors with many events entertaining the public. Many new instruments and products were presented to all accordion enthusiasts who had a great chance to try directly all innovations.

Next years appointment is 12-15th March 2014
