Will The Next (Big) @NABShow Be June 2021?

Adrian J Cotterill, Editor-in-Chief

With many large event organisers now worrying that even Q1 2021 might be too early to hold gatherings of 30,000 – 165,000 persons, it’s of significant interest that the organisers of NABShow might be considering moving their April 10 – 14, 2021 event to June, 2021.

In a recent survey sent to their exhibitors, partners and some past attendees they ask …

  1. When do you see yourself attending a tradeshow without concerns tied to COVID-19 again? Select one.

    Summer 2020 (June-August)

    Fall 2020 (September-November)

    Winter (December 2020-February 2021)

    Spring 2021 (March-May)

    Summer 2021 (June-August)

    Fall 2021 (September-November)

    2022

    Never

  2. How likely are you to attend the 2021 NAB Show in April?
  3. If the 2021 NAB Show is postponed to June in Las Vegas, how likely are you to attend?
  4. What are your primary reasons for your ratings above?

You definitely wouldn’t be asking question three “If the 2021 NAB Show is postponed to June in Las Vegas, how likely are you to attend?” without a very good reason.

Whilst it is Orlando, FL’s turn to host #InfoComm21 next year, it is scheduled to also take place in June (June 12-18, 2021 with exhibits June 16-18, 2021).

You can see their survey here.

FYI NAB Show New York is still scheduled for October 21-22, 2020 (a week after New York Digital Signage Week this year).
