The Sri Lanka Pavilion had several highlighted items at the fair which captured the visitor’s attention and earned much praise. The big board advertisement at the entrance of the fair was appreciated by the Industry participants, and the tea counter at the pavilion drew more and more visitors to the Sri Lanka stand as it had a rather cold weather, and especially because of the refreshing and genuine taste of Ceylon tea, which is very famous with the Dutch community there. The stunning cultural performances of the dance troupe, consisting of the Directorate of Army Band & Performing Arts, entertained the visitors to their hearts content, and they were excited to see the cultural glamour and talent of the Sri Lankan performers. Moreover, Special Sri Lankan performances were arranged throughout the fair, at allocated time slots at the cultural stage of the Vakantiebeurs Fair.
