GALLERY FASHION & GALLERY SHOES
28 AUGUST – 1 SEPTEMBER 2020
AREAL BÖHLER, DÜSSELDORF
De to internationale messer Gallery FASHION og
Gallery SHOES finder sted samtidigt og inkluderer
også SHOWROOM CONCEPT.
The tradeshows Gallery FASHION and Gallery SHOES
will merge together this season, including the
accompanying SHOWROOM CONCEPT.
AF HELLE MATHIESEN
På baggrund af reguleringer fra den tyske regering
samt intensive diskussioner med andre messearrangører
og nøgleaktører i branchen har messearrangøren
IGEDO Company besluttet at fokusere på hele spektret
af FASHION og SHOES ved en fælles begivenhed, som
vil finde sted fra den 28. august til 1. september 2020.
Det er omkring det tidspunkt, hvor Gallery SHOES oprindeligt
skulle foregå. SHOWROOM CONCEPT vil gå i
gang med planlagte kundeaftaler den 28. august 2020.
- I lyset af den nuværende COVID-19-situation mener
vi, at den eneste fornuftige løsning denne sæson er at
slå de to messer sammen og inkludere SHOWROOM
CONCEPT.
Efter messerne vil vi revurdere planlægningen af den
nye ordresæson i 2021, siger Ulrike Kähler, adm. direktør
for IGEDO Company.
ONE DATE FOR
GALLERY FASHION,
GALLERY SHOES &
SHOWROOM CONCEPT
Based on intensive discussions with other trade fair organisers
and key industry players, as well as taking government regulations
into consideration, the organiser IGEDO Company will be
showcasing the entire spectrum of FASHION and SHOES at one
joint event: from 28 August until 1 September 2020, on around the
same dates originally planned for Gallery SHOES.
With its partial occupancy of the Areal Böhler and pre-arranged
customer appointments, the SHOWROOM CONCEPT will be kicking
things off on 28 August 2020.
- In light of the current COVID-19 situation, we believe it is the only
reasonable solution for us to merge together both tradeshows,
including the accompanying SHOWROOM CONCEPT, on one date
in the second half of 2020. It is around the same time that Gallery
SHOES was originally scheduled to take place. After that, we
will be reassessing the scheduling for the new ordering season in
2021, states Ulrike Kähler, Managing Director of IGEDO Company.
