InnoTrans 2020, originally planned to be held Sept. 22-25, 2020, in Berlin, Germany, has been postponed due to the Senate of Berlin imposing a ban on large events with attendance of more than 5,000 through Oct. 24, 2020. The ban is the result of the spread of the COVID-19 virus.
The global rail and transit show will be held April 27-30, 2021.
“The health and safety of exhibitors, trade visitors and all the employees at the trade fair have the utmost priority. For this reason, InnoTrans will take place from 27 to 30 April 2021. We would like to take this opportunity to thank our exhibitors at InnoTrans for their cooperation and loyalty,” said Kerstin Schulz, director of InnoTrans.
This is a biennial show and the 2022 trade fair will go on as scheduled in September 2022.
The organizers of InnoTrans have put together a list of guidelines and other information concerning the postponement of the show, which can be found at https://www.innotrans.de/en/AtAGlance/CurrentInformation/.
