EVENTS VAPEVENT, PARIS 20-21 MARCH 2016 By Kerrie Costello V apevent was the first vape show I had been to with Vapouround. It is also my first time in Paris, which is a beautiful city which I couldn’t wait to explore. I found everyone so helpful, friendly and chatty. The show itself took place at the Paris Event Centre on 20th and 21st March 2016. The atmosphere was amazing as soon as I walked in, right through to the very end of both days. They had over 200 exhibitors and the foot-fall was also high on both days. The show as a whole was a success, even the layout was well organised across three rooms, giving visitors enough space to walk around and mingle. 108 ISSUE 05 VAPOUROUND MAGAZINE I think the thing that stood out for me the most, was the level of interaction between all of the exhibitors. The vaping community is fantastic, really open, warm, and amenable. Expos such as this have enabled me to see that the vaping industry, and despite current and upcoming challenges, it is very much here to stay. On a personal level I’m proud to say that not only do I work for Vapouround, but that I also work in an industry such as this. I’m looking forward to life on the road with Vapouround, and more importantly meeting with some awesome people.
