All the info from the old topic:

===============================
Just thought I'd let you all know that the date for the next Fantasy Fair is known (so the foreigners among the interested can start planning). It will be held from friday the 18th (only at night) till sunday the 20th in June 2004 in Lisse (the Netherlands).

>is it a big fair?

I think big depends on what standard your measuring against. I think there were between 15 and 20 thousand visitors last year. Last year I saw Neil Gaiman and Robin Hobb. I haven't got a clue as to who will be attending this year. I'll try to keep up to date on the forum to see if I can find out more and will post it here as soon as I find out.
===============================
I've decided to translate all the info there is so far. Reasoning that it is easier to do it bit by bit as the info is released.
So here is what is known so far:
