IWF Shanghai Fitness Expo

Highlights

A three-day fitness industry show at the Shanghai World Expo Exhibition and Convention Center in Pudong.
About 65,000 visits and 1,000+ brands last year: gym equipment, Pilates, rehab, pools and sports nutrition.
The stage program has included a bodybuilding contest and fitness awards.
Mainly a trade fair for gym owners, coaches and buyers, though fitness fans fill the experience zones.
