IBC all set for Amsterdam

November 9, 2021 16.46 Europe/London By Julian Clover

The management team at IBC has announced its pleased the December event can go ahead in a “safe and comfortable way” (Amsterdam 3-6 December).

It follows a revision of Covid regulations by the Dutch government. As of 6th November, the public will be required to wear face masks in public areas where no Covid entry pass is used, including supermarkets, shops, libraries, theme parks, and train stations.

IBC Show will be exempt from the measures because it is organised within a perimeter where everyone must show proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test before entering the premises. This means that it will not be obligatory for IBC2021 attendees to wear a face mask once they have entered the RAI and are inside the IBC Show bubble.

“The government is preparing other measures that may need to be taken in the near future if we cannot curb the trend in infections,” the Dutch health ministry said in a statement.

There has been no changes to regulations governing international travel.

“The safety and wellbeing of all IBC Show attendees remain our number one priority, and we’re confident we can uphold that commitment while staging a live event in Amsterdam,” said Michael Crimp, Chief Executive of IBC. “The recent announcement from the Dutch government will not impact the IBC Show visitor experience but, rest assured, we will be delivering the gold standard in live event safety. We can’t wait to see the industry reunited in Amsterdam in December. It has been far too long, but it’s almost time for us to get together again.”

Details of health and safety protocols can be found on the IBC website.
