Hi David - I can confirm the dates are as you said  :-))
 
There is a youth hostel type hotel (jungendherberge) in Dortmund itself - the Peterborough club usually base themselves there for the show:

David,


A link to the show, which can be viewed in English

A link to the Kolpenhaus which is where the Peterborough club stay. Sorry no English version but all the staff are pretty fluent in English. I email in English and German and usually get a reply in English. We are members of the YHA and get a reduced rate, although I do not currently see a price for non members. We just book B&B (UF) and eat out in the evenings. We are asked to pay in advance and do so by bank transfer.

As exhibitors we don't get involved with tickets, but there is a part of the website referring to tickets; alas no info as yet.

I would take a look here around the end of January, you may find more info then.


Do come and see us in hall 5 we are usually close by Dean's Marine.
