Gyllene Tider exhibition breaks museum’s attendance record
Written by roxeteer on September 2, 2004 to Gyllene Tider.
HALMSTAD - This summer’s Gyllene Tider exhibition at the Museum of Halmstad has rather unsurprisingly broken the museum’s all-time attendance record. The exhibition has had 16,400 visitors since its opening in June - 10,000 of them in July. The busiest day so far was July 21 when 755 people visited the “Återblickar” exhibition.
“Återblickar” has broken the attendance record with a huge margin of 13,000 people. The previous record was held by an exhibition about the history of the Hallandsposten newspaper.
“We know that even though people have written ’You are the best’ in our guest book, they don’t actually mean us,” says Pernilla Börnfors Nordbeck from the Museum of Halmstad. “Many who have come to see this exhibition don’t usually go to museums. We hope they will visit us again.”
The exhibition will remain open until October 31.

It’s not the hundreds of thousands they seem to have expected. :)

Tev: I never got it as if they expected hundred of thousands... the ones I was in contact with expected approx. 20.000 and in the end of October I think that could at least be close if they are lucky... :-)
