For at least the next few months, events relevant to the land-based machinery sector are off across the board, due to the outbreak.
Taking the Events page from Service Dealer magazine as a guide, almost every event listed has sadly been forced to cancel.
A couple of large shows, such as the Royal Cornwall and the Balmoral, have at this stage, announced postponements until later in the year.
Once we start considering shows due to take place from the end of May into June, some haven't made any official announcement just yet regarding their status. This of course could be subject to change as we progress and Service Dealer will continue to monitor.
So for now, below is an updated list of the events, from now until end of June, as listed in Service Dealer magazine, and their most up-to-date status we could establish. Where no status in bold is listed, no official statement could be found.
