Final attendance numbers for this year's CBA Advance are in, and professional attendance was flat from 2005. The “final professional attendance of CBA Advance 2006 was 1,452,” a CBA statement said. Last year's show brought in 1,512 professional attendees.

Day-to-day registration numbers showed attendees also arrived at the show earlier in the week than in 2005, a CBA statement said.

“Indications are that retailers really responded to the theme, exhibits and programming designed especially for their needs,” CBA President Bill Anderson said. “They arrived earlier and took advantage of the full event.”

The numbers of exhibitors and international visitors have not yet been released.
