Bahrain International Air Show goes ahead

Farnborough International (FIL) and the Bahrain Civil Aviation Affairs Directorate have confirmed that the second Bahrain International Airshow (BIAS) will take place 19-21 January 2012 at the Sakhir Air Base, which adjoins the Formula One Grand Prix circuit.  

75% of chalet space has already been sold.  Amongst the latest companies to join the existing list of participants are BAE Systems, Bell Helicopter, Boeing, GE Aviation, as well as Bahrain-based Comlux Middle East.

Amanda Stainer, Exhibitions & Events Director for FIL, commented: “Industry feedback after BIAS 2010 was extremely positive and undoubtedly the chalet sales to date reflect our client’s enthusiasm.  With so much of our chalet space now sold, still six months from the show, we are looking at new ways of accommodating those companies who wish to have a representation at BIAS 2012.  We are exploring a number of innovative ideas, additional to existing sponsorship opportunities, which will fit within the BIAS brand model to accommodate this increasing demand, whilst at the same time retaining our very high level of exclusivity.” www.farnborough.com
