The 2021 Edition Of The Paris Air Show Falls To COVID Concerns
In light of the uncertainty linked to the current COVID-19 health crisis, the Paris Air Show organization reports that it has made the decision to cancel the 2021 edition of the show, which was scheduled to take place from 21 to 27 June 2021.
Together with the Board of Directors of the GIFAS (French Aerospace Industries Association), the Board of Directors of the Paris Air Show has taken this decision in response to the international health crisis and the large number of visitors that this show attracts. This decision was agreed upon unanimously by the Paris Air Show Board members in the context of a crisis that has had an unprecedented impact on the aerospace industry.
The next edition of the Paris Air Show will be held in June 2023, at a date yet to be announced.
The Paris air Show will take full financial responsibility for this decision. “We are obviously disappointed not to be able to hold the 2021 edition of the Paris Air Show. After many months of all trade show activities being suspended throughout the world, the entire international aerospace and defence community was very much looking forward to being able to meet. We have already started work to ensure that the 2023 edition celebrates the resurgence of the aerospace industry on an international scale,” explains Patrick Daher, Chairman of the International Paris Air Show and Chairman of the Daher Group.
Gilles Fournier, CEO of the International Paris Air Show, added, “We would like to extend a huge thank you to all of our partners, exhibitors and service providers for the trust they have placed in us. We share their disappointment, as the Paris Air Show continues to be an extremely popular event, even in periods of crisis. The 2023 edition will be larger than ever, and our teams are already working to ensure its success.”
Established in 1909, the International Paris Air Show is a pivotal event for the aeronautics and space industry.
