2019's fair will be held on Saturday the 16th of February. Like last fair, it will be held in the sports hall of "Dorpshuis De Lèghe Polder" in Beuningen, a village close to Nijmegen. As usual, doors open for visitors at 10:00 in the morning (though anyone is most welcome to come from 08:30 to help with setting up the room!), and the room should be completely empty again by 18:00. A lot of time to do some great MSXing together!

If you want to register a booth, you can use the registration form on the website to let the organisation know your details and how many tables (just 2.50 EUR each!) you need. As usual, the form is only meant for booth registration; if you want to sign up for the tradition after-party dinner, or want to sponsor the fair, please contact Manuel via e-mail instead.

Because dinner has to be ordered on beforehand at the caterer, reservations are only confirmed by paying in advance. A non-paid reservation is ignored! Please be very much aware of this, as this is new this year.

Are you already looking forward to attending the fair? Plan to show something cool? Let us know below, and let's get the hype going already!

This fair should have a permanent mention on the frontpage. It’s only a month away and it doesn’t get promotion. So here’s a bump Smile

Thanks Latok!
For me the Dino is a nice allusion to the dinosaur Nishi 1984 chased through Tokyo...

Is it supposed to be 'Come to Nijmegen Fair!',
or 'Nijmegen Fair - come too!' ?

The latter form doesn't quite translate to English 1:1. I think (more) correct would be something like: 'Come visit!' or 'Join us!'

It's meant as something in-between, like "Hi ren! We will welcome you and your two friends to the fair, too" (1:1)
