Once again, the OutDoor is breaking new records – as soon as it

opens its doors! Following completion of the extension to the east of

the trade fair centre, a fantastic 85,000m2 of exhibition space is now

available for the summit meeting of the outdoor branch.

The OutDoor 2009 is welcoming its specialist visitors with even more

exhibition space, an increased number of parking spaces, a greater

number of meeting and conference rooms, a greater selection of eateries.

Along with the square metres, the OutDoor is also increasing its claim

to be the main trade fair for its branch – anywhere in the world. This is

the address for the outdoor community to come together, traders to

keep themselves informed, the media to report from, and insiders to

discuss tomorrow’s trends today.

In other words: success stories are expected to be written again at

the OutDoor 2009.

Bike hire

hire bikes will be available at the

most important locations in

Fried richshafen (airport, stations,

hotels) and around the exhibition

centre (Hymer-City + Camping

exhibitors can make their way to

the exhibition centre easily and

quickly, and in the evening it’s easy

to get back to their starting point.

It is only four kilometres from

Fried richshafen city or harbour

railway station to the entrance of

the new Messe, a distance easily

covered in a good quarter of an

hour by bike.

And the best thing about the bike-

hire service: it’s not only free, it’s

environmentally friendly, too!
