Individual pavilions also provided entertainment in the form of video games, virtual reality simulators, and racing simulation games.
Apart from the premium car stalls, the alternative fuel vehicles spread across various stalls also received quite a bit of attention from visitors. The vintage car segment was a huge draw as well.
The merchandise stalls, which sold souvenirs like mugs, back-packs, hats, T-shirts, etc. did brisk business, while the food courts too remained packed throughout as people enjoyed a day out in the sun.
Despite the immense crowd, ample security and staff ensured that the traffic and pedestrian flow remained relatively smooth for an operation of its size. Parking was convenient and shuttle services were provided for those parked far away. Mobility cart services were also provided within the India Expo Mart compound making it easier for the elderly or the disabled to get around.
