In addition to moving to a more efficient three-day format, this year MAGIC also implemented a number of other show improvements, including:
• Organizing three market-specific (women's, men's and streetwear) events on show site for targeted networking opportunities. • Offering new exhibitor seminars in 2008 to help them maximize the MAGIC experience. • Presenting an on-show-site new buyer seminar to help retailers navigate the show floor and introduce them to MAGIC's retail relations team. • Hosting regional meet and greet events for exhibitors and retailers.
MAGIC will continue to attract retailers with existing services that no other trade show matches, including: a strong Retail Relations team, a President's Club and a Buyer's Suite.
The August show will commence on August 25, 2008 and conclude August 27, 2008. Hours for the show will continue to run from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. each day.
