Trade show cancellations

COVID-19 has taken it's toll on organised events this year and the printing industry is no exception. In the UK The Print Show was due to be held in September at the NEC, Birmingham and has been postponed until September next year.

Likewise Printing United Expo (the largest trade show in USA) was due to take place in Atlanta this October and has been replaced with a "virtual event" using 3D technology. They hope to return for a live event in October 2021.

Drupa had already been cancelled and would have been running about now (at time of writing), but will be held next April 2021, however some of the big exhibitors including Heidelberg who have attended every Drupa wince 1951 have pulled out. This will no doubt give other big names pause for thought.
