Busworld Europe 2021, scheduled for 9–14 October in Brussels, has been cancelled. The next edition of Busworld Europe will take place in Brussels from 7 to 12 October 2023.
Mieke Glorieux, director, Busworld Europe, said: “Although the prospects were positive in the beginning of the year, the promised speed of the vaccination campaigns , especially in Europe, were not met at all. And since the preparations to participate to a trade show start at least six months before the actual show takes place, there are too many question marks for our exhibitors. Because there is no way of predicting travel restrictions, Busworld cannot fully guarantee its exhibitors that the visitors will join the show in October in the usual numbers. And there is no way to measure the willingness to travel of the visitors with the negative impact of covid-19 on their business results for more than a year now. There is too much uncertainty. Therefore, the decision was made with full support of Busworld’s main exhibitors. They respected and agreed with the decision and all assured that they will be present at the next edition in 2023.”
