| Hi everyone,
I saw some clips of the Amiga 37 show on YouTube and the attendance looked great compared to previous years or any other show.
Why was this? Did the new Amiga 500 mini generate this renewed interest in the Amiga platform?

Vampires have breathed new life into the Amiga scene. The A500 Mini generated lots of buzz too. _________________

I notice a lot of events being sold out or record attendance, I think it’s largely the fact it’s the first year in three that no covid restrictions are in place and everyone keen to get out more, that’s my theory. _________________

No Apollo or Amiga500Mini theories required.
The primary reason for the larger attendance compared to the previous Amiga3x events was that this year they rent a much larger location.
That in turn allowed them make more tickets available for sale, so the poor guys who couldn't make it before due to tickets being sold out came now and could even bring their families.
You can fairly asume that the attendance would have been roughly the same in the previous years if there hadn't been this severe tickets number limitation.
This theory is at least fairly backed by logic and Facebook event guest number comparisons (always ~ 200 for all Amiga3x events).

That's really interesting, I would love to attend next year's advert in Germany if similar attendance is expected.
I wonder how do you get invited to the after show meal/drinks etc..?
If I travelled to Germany I would like to make the most of the trip!
