Messe München announced the cancellation of the upcoming OutDoor by Ispo show in Munich, which was to take place from June 28 to the first of July, due to the Covid-19 pandemic. The decision was taken following the recommendations of the Bavarian state government and health authorities and in close consultation with the European Outdoor Group (EOG), the OutDoor by Ispo Advisory Board and the exhibitors. Mark Held, president of the EOG, said the cancellation will free up urgently needed company resources that can be used to support employees, retailers and other stakeholders along the entire supply chain at a time when the outdoor industry is under unprecedented stress from the pandemic. As Messe München announced this morning, decisions on the continuation of the Ispo Digitalize Summit, Ispo Textrends and Outstanding Outdoor formats will be made at a later date.
