We are thrilled by the overwhelming number of entries we received by the entry deadline on July 15th. The EURO PAINT has established itself as the largest APHA show outside of the USA and has seen a 10% increase in entries at the entry deadline, reaching over 1800 starts.

To ensure an exceptional show experience for all participants, we have made the following adjustments:

The demand for paid warm-ups has exceeded our initial projections. Therefore, we have created additional opportunities to provide adequate preparation for all participants.
