Postponement due to the recent emergence of further COVID-19 cases in China
SHANGHAI — The organizers of ISH Shanghai & CIHE have confirmed that the next edition of the fair will now take place at a later date instead of the scheduled August 31 - September 2, 2021. This is due to the recent emergence of further COVID-19 cases in China and uncertainty around participants being able to travel to Shanghai this month.
“After discussions with our stakeholders and taking the government’s guidelines for pandemic containment into account, we have decided to defer the 2021 edition of ISH Shanghai & CIHE to provide as much certainty to the fair’s participants as possible,” said Richard Li, general manager of Messe Frankfurt (Shanghai) Co. Ltd. “At this stage it is unclear when our exhibitors and visitors can plan their travel to Shanghai with confidence, so we believe it is the prudent decision to confirm now that the fair will take place a later date instead.”
