Expo 96, officially World Expo 96 Wentworth, was a specialised expo held in Wentworth, the capital city of Enderron, during a six-month period from 30 April to 30 October 1996. The theme of the Expo was "Technology of the New Millennium".
Expo 96 attracted more than 24.7 million visitors. The event achieved both its economic aims and very good attendances, was successfully used to promote Wentworth as a tourist destination and it spurred a major re-development at the Southwark site. The core feature of the site were the international pavilions. Many of the exposition's sculptures and buildings are still in use or on display today.
