The Cereals Event has moved to June 30 to July 1 to accommodate the maximum number of visitors and exhibitors following the Government’s announcement of its lockdown exit strategy.
After extensive consultation with both exhibitors and visitors the event team decided it was best to move the original dates (June 9-10).
“We began consulting after Boris Johnson’s announcement on February 22 to end lockdown restrictions in England by June 21,” says event organiser, Alli McEntyre.
“Speaking with exhibitors and visitors, we looked at the choice of having a restricted event in early June or moving the date and potentially having no restrictions, and the majority opted for the latter.
“We wanted to act quickly in making this decision to give everyone certainty so they can plan ahead,” she adds. “This is a really positive move for visitors, exhibitors and the event, as it will maximise the opportunities for all without lockdown restrictions in place.”
The event format will remain the same, meaning visitors can still expect to see a large host of exhibitors, live demonstrations and attend a full seminar programme.
“Though the Government is targeting a full lifting of lockdown restrictions before the new date, we are still planning on prioritising visitor safety and will be taking all necessary precautions, while allowing visitors to enjoy the entire event experience,” explains Ms McEntytre.
The show will be held in Lincolnshire and will comply with all required biosecurity measures against Covid-19.
