Was my first as well and overwhelmingly disappointing. Spent upwards of 3 hours there and got to try maybe 3 things I wanted due to every clueless person spending 30 minutes plus sitting at a station and not being told by the booth to move their ass while a 5 person line formed behind them waiting. Eventually gave up and left because I wasn't getting in to the spots I wanted any time soon.

If you're gonna have exhibitions you need to limit the time and tell people to get up, half the people weren't even prospective buyers they were just trying everything for stupid amounts of time. If you want to come back after everyone else gets their 10 or 15 mins cool, but let the line finish and everyone get in. What a disorganized mess, honestly, couldn't even get into the unique melody station at musicteck after 3 hours of being there (one dude literally at the station seats the entire time I was there).

Its a game of patience. Also it doesn't hurt to spark a conversation with a vendor, usually if you get chatty they ask people to go try something else. Also 3 hours isn't much time. For me 6 hours go by pretty fast. At the end you just end up listening to the DCS Lina all day since they are usually everywhere.

Maybe you got unlucky but I didn't really have that problem. Even behind 3 people I've only waited like 6 minutes max. Also there's so many seats at the um/music musictek booth im surprised you had trouble with there.

Yeah same here. I was actually able to listen to all the headphones I wanted test out by like 3 PM on Saturday. It's just a matter of patience and checking out a multitude of tables.
