"We’ve shared a terrific time together with you and all the exhibitors. The preliminary attendance figure during the fair days landed at 25,885 people and despite the aftermath the pandemic, the response was incredible!"
The fair brought together more than 270 exhibitors - from Husqvarna to Stihl - from 22 different countries.
It also saw Wood Let’s Talk being held for the first time, a round-table discussion between politicians and forestry figures.
The statement continued: "You visitors brought along your smiles and expectations and created a great atmosphere.
