IBC Cancels Amsterdam Event Due To Escalating COVID 19 Concerns

IBC in Amsterdam has been canceled due to the recent surge of COVID cases in the Netherlands. 2021 has been rough and trade shows are just not a good idea, and who knows when they will be back as things keep changing worldwide.

IBC Digital will still be taking place October 21 – March 13th.

LONDON, UK – 23 November 2021 –
IBC announces that the in person IBC2021 event has been cancelled. The move follows growing concerns about the COVID-19 situation in The Netherlands, which has deteriorated over the past week, and feedback from the IBC exhibitor and visitor community. The IBC Partnership Board made the decision today in order to prevent exhibitors and visitors from travelling to The Netherlands.
Due to take place on December 3-6 at The RAI in Amsterdam, IBC20201 will now focus on bringing the content and technology community together via IBC Digital.

I hope someday to be able to attend and cover tradeshows again. The big part of them is seeing people you interact with all year in person. IBC is my favorite as Amsterdam is a wonderful host city.
