A refund plan for exhibitors at the planned Winter Art & Antiques Fair Olympia has been announced by organisers should government restrictions make it impossible to run.
Clarion Events’ proposed refund plan will give dealers 50% of their stand cost back, with the remaining 50% carried forward to the fair’s staging in 2021.
Indoor fairs were hoping to return after October 1 when some regulations on business events in conference centres were expected to be lifted. However, following the tightening of regulations in response to a rising Covid-19 infection rate in the UK – including the ‘rule of six’ for social gatherings – this could be delayed.
