Spielwarenmesse 2021 – originally scheduled to be taking place from 27 to 31 January 2021 – has been postponed until summer 2021.
The event has been postponed as a direct result of the persisting Covid-19 pandemic. Exhibitors have been notified this morning of the new dates, which have been set in response to ‘the increasing number of infections and further travel restrictions’.
The notice, sent from organisers Spielwarenmesse eG read:
“Today, we regret to inform you that Spielwarenmesse 2021 will not take place in January. Instead, the fair will be held in summer 2021…. The significantly changed framework and the concern for the health of all involved parties mean that it will be difficult to hold Spielwarenmesse at the end of January with the quality you are used to. Developments in recent weeks have led to major concerns among exhibitors and visitors about taking part in an international fair – this uncertainty was also clear in discussions with the Spielwarenmesse team.”
“We very much regret the decision to postpone the Spielwarenmesse 2021,” said Ernst Kick, ceo of Spielwarenmesse eG. “I’d like to thank everyone who joined us on this path, and I feel sure that the improvements we have made will benefit all future events and appearances.”
Spielwarenmesse eG is currently in talks with NürnbergMesse to find a suitable date for the Spielwarenmesse 2021, which will be announced in the coming weeks.
