September EU shows - Amsterdam vs UK vs Budapest!
 

I just wanted to gauge the feeling from most people who will attend the shows next month as to how they are dealing with Xbiz's move to run the UK show overlapping both Amsterdam and Budapest. In the past these have been all in sync!

20th-23rd Webmaster Access Amsterdam
22nd-25th Xbiz London
24th-27th EU Summit Budapest

I feel that Amsterdam is the place to be and wont be missing this one! The UK last year was not the biggest turn out but was still ok to see a few local faces and some did use London as a entry hub from the US/Canada before moving onto the other EU shows. Andreas has always got a good level of attendees for previous years in Praha and i get the feeling most will be going onto Budapest from Amsterdam.

What are you all going to do? Is it just a simple answer from everyone that they will be skipping the UK show altogether? Or are people thinking that most who go to Amsterdam will go to Budapest so may as well head to the UK to see what is there?

I predict low attendance at the UK show :2 cents:

First of all it is a shame the shows are overlapping so much. I would like to go to all three, but will only go to two (the middle for sure) because of it. :2 cents:

Amsterdam and Budapest for me.

Word on the street is that most people are skipping London and heading straight to Budapest after Amsterdam.

Amsterdam and Budapest for me as well!

Amsterdam, Budapest (but only 1 night) and Munich!

Amsterdam & Budapest for me. I'd have liked to do the London show as well if they could have figured out better scheduling to make them all work together but since I have to choose, London has to be skipped.

Judging from the replies it looks like Xbiz took a real gamble on this one! :upsidedow


See you at the weekend :winkwink:

Looks like i made the right choice!

How's the new platform going looking forward to seeing you and getting my hands on some of that mobile traffic :thumbsup

Will be good to see you and the Kimia team out in force :thumbsup

I would have attend the UK show for sure as although its never the biggest its always nice to go back to London.

It's looking that way, they have the awards show that might bring a few in as I am sure there are a few companies out there with space on their shelves :upsidedow

Amsterdamn / Budapest for us

too bad for the UK show, worst dates ever.

You are forgetting the Oktoberfest Gathering !
It's the 10th anniversary and will be the biggest show of the 10 years.

I'll be attending Amsterdam, Budapest and Munich...I have to skip London as well.

lol @ UK , You think they will screen everyone and call there service providers ?

That's not a prediction lol :error

I will be attending Amsterdam and Budapest, though we will have some JuicyAds peeps in London as well... :pimp

See you in Amsterdam?

Yeah seems very stupid with interlaping other two shows,before was atleast in order.

Only Amsterdam here!!

Going to vacation again ?

Oktoberfest, hell YEAH :drinkup :drinkup

Amsterdam and Budapest for me this year :)

Is the Munich show really that beneficial for business? From the pictures i have seen it looks like your in a massive marquee on long tables drinking a hell of a lot of beer!

Have i got it wrong that Munich is more than just for beer monsters :1orglaugh

i made some of the best deals of my life last year standing on a bench with a beer in my hand :1orglaugh

see everyone in Amsterdam :)

See y'all in Budapest! I'm heading to London but only for
Ad Tech.

We will be in London, Budapest and Munich!

See y'all there.
