Flowers form an important element of the display at TEFAF Maastricht and the 2012 Fair was no exception. In 2012 over the duration of the Fair, the entrance display used 33,000 Avalanche roses; the corridors, squares and cafés decorated with 40,500 of the most exclusive multi-coloured long-stalked French tulips, augmented by 4,500 branches of magnolia or cherry blossoms while the arrangements in the Place de La Concorde used 24,000 multi-coloured short-stemmed Dutch tulips.

360 extra flights were reported at Aachen- Maastrich airport during course of the Fair, in what the airport acknowledges is their busiest period of the year. Next year the European Fine Art Fair will take place between 15-24 March at the MECC Maastricht. Follow TEFAF on Twitter, Facebook and Linkedin.
