Why this is better
6 issues fixed: Messe Wien's actual exhibition space is approximately 55,000 sqm across four halls (A, B, C, D), not 75,000 sqm across nine halls. The congress center (VIECON, rebranded in 2025) is approximately 7,000 sqm across 18 units, not 24,000 sqm. | Vienna-Bratislava is one of the closest pairs of national capitals in the world at roughly 55-80 km by road, not 250 km. Vienna-Brno is roughly 110-140 km, not 250 km. Vienna-Budapest is roughly 232 km, not ~350 km (as lumped together with Prague). | IFABO is a historical Vienna trade fair (referenced in sources from the 1980s-1990s) with no evidence it is still operating as a current annual/October fixture at Messe Wien. Presenting it as a live, ongoing fair in the current calendar is unsupported. | Power-Days is held at Messezentrum Salzburg, not at Messe Wien in Vienna. The article repeatedly and incorrectly places this fair at Messe Wien, including in the hall-allocation table and the top-fairs list. | Restates the same incorrect placement of IFABO and Power-Days at Messe Wien in the paragraph following the hall table. | Repeats IFABO as a current October fair and Power-Days as a Vienna fair in the "Top fairs at Messe Wien" list; Power-Days is actually held in Salzburg and IFABO has no evidence of currently running.
