New Club for Vinexpo

Vinexpo will not be featuring its traditional, invitation-only outdoor pavilions known as the Club des Marques for the 2007 show in Bordeaux. In their place, but not on the same site, will be the Club du Lac – a set of larger, closed and air-conditioned structures overlooking the lake outside the exhibition’s main space, Hall 1

These temporary buildings will comprise two floors, an outdoor terrace and private landscaped gardens.

Unlike the tent-like canvas exhibition spaces found in the Club des Marques, the buildings in the Club du Lac will have glass sides, allowing visitors to see in and out. The cost of hiring one of these structures will be approximately €48,000 – the same as it was for space in the Club des Marques, according to Robert Beynat, chief executive, Vinexpo. "We have offered the Club du Lac to 40 main companies in the world and expect between 12 and 15 to exhibit there," he added. Those restaurants which did occupy the space alongside the lake will move to the site formerly held by the Club des Marques.
