EFTTEX ‘unaffected’ by fire at next year’s show venue

Despite a fire that devastated a whole hall at next year’s EFTTEX venue, the fishing tackle trade show will be unaffected.

That is the assurance issued by Pavlina Kontrová, Business Manager, at The PVA Prague Exhibition Centre. She told Angling International that the other halls at the location survived without any damage and that the venue is continuing with its planned programme with only small changes. “We still have two entrance halls, six exhibition halls and plenty of conference spaces.

“Our summer events are currently running and we are preparing for our autumn trade fair events. EFTTEX 2022 will not be affected in any way.”

Angling International revealed last week that Hall One had been destroyed in a fire last month, causing an estimated CZK 150m (€5.9m) in damage.
