The 2005 editions of ATEI and ICE/ICEi, which took place from 25-27 January at London's Earls Court Exhibition Centre, showed an all time high in attendance figures recorded over the three days, according to show organisers, ATE. The figures, which remain subject to an ABC independent audit, show that a total of 24,278 industry professionals visited the exhibitions, a 9.86 per cent increase on the 2004 total. Of these, 15,270 registered for ATEI (up 3.34 per cent year-on-year) with 9,008 attending ICE (a 23.03 per cent rise on 2004).The international credentials, which make the London Shows unique within the calendar of gaming and gambling expos, were once again to the fore with 10,067 (41.47 per cent) attendees based outside the UK – a 12.09 per cent increase on the 2004 figure. Within ATEI, international attendees numbered 4,956 (32.45 per cent of the total ATEI audience and 6.37 per cent up on the 2004 figure). In ICE, international visitors totalled 5,111 (56.74 per cent of the overall ICE attendance and 18.26 per cent up on 2004). A total of 110 countries/jurisdictions were represented on the Earls Court show floor. Exhibitor numbers also increased at both shows this year with a total of 306 exhibiting companies at ATEI (a 4.1% annual increase) and 187 exhibiting at ICE (a 12.7% annual increase.) Peter Rusbridge, ATE's chief executive said, "These figures affirm the widely held view that ATEI and ICE are the pre-eminent events of their type in the world." Next year's ATEI and ICE shows take place at London's Earls Court Exhibition Centre from 24-26 January 2006.
