With only six months left to go until the world’s plastics mega-event, “K 2016” (www.k-online.com), kicks off in Düsseldorf / Germany on 19 October, organiser Messe Düsseldorf (Düsseldorf; www.messe-duesseldorf.de) has announced that e-tickets for the show are now available online. Easily printed at home, the tickets also come at a discount, with a one-day ticket costing just EUR 49 (as opposed to the over-the-counter price of EUR 65), while a three-day e-ticket sells for EUR 108, compared to EUR 135 when purchased at the fair in Düsseldorf. The tickets also allow holders to travel to the trade fair free of charge by bus and rail within the VRR and VRS integrated transport system, Messe Düsseldorf points out.

The organiser also recommends that anyone who has not yet booked a room for the duration of the event – the fair runs from 19-26 October 2016 – do so as soon as possible. The portal of Düsseldorf Marketing & Tourismus (DMT) has put together a range of package deals that can be booked by visiting http://business.duesseldorf-tourismus.de/messe/K/.
