The Fabric Days scheduled from March 2 to 4, 2021 will not be taking place, it said the Munich Fabric Start the organizers on its Fabric Days website. Due to the ongoing pandemic related measures, the original date of fabrics trade show had already been shifted from January 26 to 28, 2021, to March 2 to 4. But the challenging circumstances and planning uncertainty have now forced Munich Fabric Start to pull the plug and cancel Fabric Days altogether.

“Unfortunately, the number of infections in Germany and Europe have not changed fundamentally in the last few weeks, which is why the federal government has provisionally extended the current lockdown to January 31, 2021 and tightened it even further. There are only seven weeks left until the start of Fabric Days–in this short period of time a necessary turnaround is unfortunately still not in sight. We must therefore currently assume that there will be no political basis for approving and holding trade fairs in Germany by then,” says Sebastian Klinder, Managing Director, Munich Fabric Start. “I regret the cancelation very much, especially in view of the numerous registrations and the great support in the industry.”
