TRADE FAIR COMMENCEMENTVYSTAVOVATELÉ – GREETING TO SE EXHIBITORS PŘEDSTAVUJÍ On Thursday, 12 December, the already 5th edition of the Trade Fair of Gifts, Decorations and Household Goods known as STŘÍBRNÉ VÁNOČNÍ DNY 2013 (or CHRISTMAS FAIR 2013) was commenced by a greeting addressed to the exhibitors. The opening ceremony was organised with participation of not only representatives of ABF - the organising company, but also at presence of VIP guests, such as representatives of the Federation of Indian Export Organisations (FIEO) - Mr. Banerjee Shymali, Fashion Zone - Mr. Filip Keresteš and Director of the Ulice dětem (Street for Children) organisation, Mr. Daniel Lacek. A merry and admirable enrichment of the opening ceremony was an untraditional show of Matěj Kodeš, professional bubble maker, holder of several world records, where he presented original tricks and magic illusions with bubbles, such as closing a few children in a mega-bubble.
PRESENTATION OF COMPANIES The success of the Christmas Fair 2013 was supported mainly by traditional exhibitors from the circuits of leading Czech manufacturers and exclusive importers, to whom visitors look forward already every year, but also by this year’s innovations of the Trade Fair, which included the Fashion Zone, Oriental Markets, Trial and Creative Zones. The Fashion Zone addressed visitors with an original production of 31 designers and creators of independent fashion, on the Oriental Markets it was possible to see, among others, 21 Indian exhibitors with their ethnically focused original products. The general atmosphere was completed by the Gastro Zone with refreshment and various gourmet specialties. The Klasa brand offered tasting of the best Czech food products.
PRIVATE VIEW The private view of the Trade Fair event took place on the second day, with presence of Ing. Jaroslav Čížek, Chief Executive Officer of ABF, a. s. We welcomed an important guest, Ambassador of India to the Czech Republic, H. E. Mr. Shri Ashok Venkatesan. After the private view, the representatives of the countries visited together Indian exhibitors in the section of Oriental markets.
ACCOMPANYING PROGRAMMES STAGE PERFORMANCES
The main stage situated in HALL 5 was the place of rather diverse and very comprehensive accompanying programmes consisting of performances of 22 schools and organisations. Concerning music and dancing performances, spectators surely appreciated performance of Ji-Hong, extraordinarily talented violinist from the Vodičkova Elementary School, and of the “Masakrózní hustec” school band, children’s choir “Klíček” and the flute group “Notečka”. Dancing performance was demonstrated by the team of majorettes from Studio Bohemia, folklore group “Prstýnek” or the IRIS group which presented also fencing skills. The professional and dynamic performance of the Ulice dětem (Street for Children) on Tour 2013 project involved visitors into secrets of street dance, break dance, rapping or beatbox. Many visitors were impressed by models and original jewels of young designers of the FASHION ZONE, which were presented by designers in attractive fashion shows.
CREATIVE WORKSHOPS AND TRIAL ZONES
Creative workshops provided both children and adult people with possibilities of painting Christmas decorations, floristic secrets in ornamenting Christmas decorations, trying various drawing techniques with a Magic triangle, lighting Lego modular systems - Laser Pegs and many other creative skills. In trial zones it was possible to try cycling specialities and scooters, as well as funny games. The visitors were interested very much also in production of candles or demonstration of works with glass and ceramics.
TREE OF FULFILLED WISHES Ceremonial handover of gifts to children from Klokánek A beautiful tradition of the pre-Christmas Trade Fair is support and joy for children from the KLOKÁNEK centre, based on donations of Christmas gifts under the TREE OF FULFILLED WISHES.
