Fair organiser Deutsche Messe has cancelled Domotex, slated for January 2022. Just over a month ago, the organisers wanted to stage Domotex in the southern part of the Hannover exhibition grounds in a compact format as a re-start event in three halls, thus giving the industry a chance to meet physically after almost two years of pandemic.

The organisers are now looking into postponing Domotex to a later date in 2022.

"We have been fighting for Domotex together with the exhibiting companies until the very end, and have been in daily communication with the industry for months," said Sonia Wedell-Castellano, global director Domotex, Deutsche Messe. "Domotex is particularly affected by the impact of the Corona pandemic, as the vast majority of Domotex exhibitors and attendees come from abroad. However, given the current pandemic situation, international business travel is not expected to recover in the short term."

"What was considered a realistic and promising re-start scenario a month ago, and was also well received by the market, has proven to be no longer feasible in recent days," Wedell-Castellano added.
