The organiser of the London Bike Show & Triathlon Show: London – Newtimber Media – has released a statement. This follows the postponement of the show’s original March 2020 dates in line with the ongoing COVID-19 situation, and an original plan to reschedule the show on 3-5 July 2020.
The statement, below, includes new dates for the show in March 2021, to be held at ExCel London once again. The venue is currently the site of the NHS Nightingale Hospital, set up in response to the demand for COVID-19 patient care.
Newtimber Media statement…
Since making the initial announcement on 12th March that the shows would be delayed until July 2020, the UK has undergone a huge change. Due to large restrictions placed on life in general, and the impact these are having on business, the revised July date is no longer an option.
Following discussions with the venue (which is currently in use as NHS Nightingale) we are pleased to announce that the show will now take place from 5-7 March 2021. By delaying until then, we feel that this will give businesses involved in the show (both exhibitors and our contractors) a much better chance to make a full recovery from this difficult period.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank our stakeholders – exhibitors, ticket-holders, partners, contractors and the team at ExCel London – for continuing to support us through this uncertain and ever-changing situation.
We are as committed as ever to ensuring the 10th anniversary of the London Bike Show and 8th edition of the Triathlon Show: London are the best yet, and will continue for many years to come. Given the huge uptake in cycling and running that’s been witnessed in recent weeks, we hope to welcome a record number of visitors in March 2021.
Over the coming weeks and months, we will continue to support all exhibitors, sponsors and partners through our online community as it grows day-by-day during lockdown.
Stay safe and well.
Frazer Clifford and the Newtimber Media Team
