APLF 2020 postponed again

24/03/2020

The organisers of the APLF exhibition in Hong Kong have said it will not be possible for them to hold the event on the rearranged dates of June 1-3 and that a further postponement will be necessary. 

APLF 2020 was originally to take place at the end of March but the organisers said in February that they were postponing until June 1-3 because of the outbreak of Covid-19.

In mid-March, however, the Hong Kong government announced that any visitors arriving from outside China between March 19 and mid-June would be obliged to observe a 14-day quarantine.

These new orders mean it would be impossible for exhibitors and buyers to participate in APLF, the organisers said. They added: “We are working diligently with Hong Kong venues and stakeholders to consider what available options will benefit all concerned. We will make another announcement very soon regarding APLF 2020.”
