ACHEMA live event postponed by nine months
18 Nov 2020
Further updates to our event horizon include a nine-month postponement of ACHEMA to April 2022, on the assumption that at least some travel restrictions will remain in place into the summer of 2021. However, ACHEMA attendees will still be able to meet virtually via the ACHEMA Pulse platform in June 2021.
ACHEMA 2021 postponed until 4-8 April 2022
This decision was taken after intensive discussions with the community and in the ACHEMA Committee in view of the continuing uncertainty caused by the Corona pandemic.
Seven months before the start the committee have decided to postpone ACHEMA to April 4-8, 2022 after intensive consultation with exhibitors and partners. With this early decision DECHEMA wants to give exhibitors planning security in the light of the long-term preparation and investment required by a show of this size. The ACHEMA Committee, representing the exhibitors, had previously also unanimously voted for a postponement to 2022, expressing at the same time their strong commitment to ACHEMA.
