At the venue, strict Covid-19 safety measures were implemented. As part of the security measures, attendees were required to show 3G admittance documents prior to entering the fairgrounds. Such certificates included negative testing results, immunisation passports, and proof of recovery. The event attracted 466 exhibitors and over 16,000 trade visitors from 103 nations.
The FSB 2023

The venue did not feature Covid-19 safety measures because of the removal of the country's pandemic-related restrictions. Over 820 exhibitors from 45 nations and around 25,000 visitors from 123 countries attended the events.
