COVID-19 Strikes Again -- Avalon 2021 Deferred

Rescheduled For Later in 2021

Chief Executive, Ian Honnery, for the AMDA Foundation is another one of those folks who have had to make a tough call... especially with potential effectsa on the celebration of the Centenary of the Royal Australian Air Force to be dealt with, in the future. As a result, he has announced that the Australian International Airshow and Aerospace & Defence Exposition (AVALON 2021) needs to be rescheduled.  

Honnery noted that, "After extensive consultation and review, it has become clear that the impacts of COVID-19, including lengthy logistical lead times and uncertainty about availability of international travel, would pose unacceptable risks to AVALON 2021, should it continue with its original February dates.

As a result, AVALON 2021, originally scheduled for 23-28 February, will be deferred to later in 2021, with timings in November being considered. Precise dates will be announced shortly.

This deferral will provide certainty for partners, stakeholders, exhibitors and participants. It will also enable industry to focus on managing through the challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and its aftermath, knowing that AVALON 2021 in a November timing will confidently contribute to the regeneration of business development following the pandemic.

As the centerpiece of the Royal Australian Air Force's Centenary celebrations, AVALON 2021 will have great national and international significance. Deferring AVALON 2021 to November will ensure the event serves its purpose as a powerful promotional and industry engagement forum on the way to business recovery and as a spectacular celebration of 100 years of the Royal Australian Air Force."

The biennial Australian International Airshow and Aerospace & Defence Exposition (AVALON) is Australia's own signature international aviation, aerospace and defence event. Organized by AMDA Foundation Limited, it has become a premium international platform for engagement between industry, defence, government and academia and universally regarded as one of the world's great air shows.
