Music concerts, competitions, and play grounds for children are but a few of the items she listed on the package for this year.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat I hear is that Trade Fair used to be this magical place\u2026so the exhibitions are going on but at the same time you and your children are having fun, you and your children are participating in the fair, there is entertainment, there are musicians here, it\u2019s that type of feel that I am hoping that this 22nd International Trade Fair will be,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019ve partnered with some of the media groups, they will put up a grand concert for everyone to come and enjoy, we have set up a family day of activities so you can bring your children to play on the bouncy castles and have fun, all encompassing the family, we will focus on the family to have fun, we have food fests planned, we even have a day where CEO\u2019s will compete to cook. We have infused some entertainment in the actual exhibit so every day will have a package so that you and your family can come and enjoy,\u201d she noted.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Adu further noted GTFC\u2019s readiness to accommodate all participants and investors invited for this year\u2019s fair. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are rapidly moving along. We are making extra rooms outside the pavilions and the normal outdoor pavilions, we are adding an area of about 30,000 square meters that we\u2019ve cleared that we are going to stage an outdoor exhibition pavilion as part of the fair so this year we\u2019ve even added extra space so we\u2019ll be able to accommodate really, all and everybody. We are indeed ready to house all 600 participants if indeed all 600 participants will come,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/content.jwplatform.com\/players\/OoPPtBso-GtVgZhNx.html\" width=\"600\" height=\"350\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"auto\" allowfullscreen=\"\" style=\"position:absolute;\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p><!-- uploaded by: 48 updated by: 48 --><\/p>\n<p><!-- Start of html generated by this->footer() -->\n<\/div>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a style=\"display:none\" rel=\"follow\" href=\"http:\/\/megatheme.ir\/\" title=\"\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633\">\u0642\u0627\u0644\u0628 \u0648\u0631\u062f\u067e\u0631\u0633<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Business News of Friday, 9 February 2018 Source: www.ghanaweb.com 2018-02-09 play videoChief Executive Officer of Ghana Trade Fair Company Ltd., Dr. Agnes Adu The 22nd International Trade Fair promises to be industrious and exciting with lots of fun packages for patrons and exhibitors alike, this is according to CEO of the Ghana International Trade Fair [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":463117,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-463116","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-local-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/463116","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=463116"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/463116\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=463116"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=463116"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.ghanamma.com\/2018\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=463116"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
