Renewed funding from the German government’s NEUSTART KULTUR programme gives exhibitors financial planning security

Official deadline for registrations is 31 May 2021.

Thanks to additional funds from the German government’s NEUSTART KULTUR programme, the terms of cancellation can now be updated so that exhibitors will bear no financial risk from the impact of the global pandemic.

Even if the fair is cancelled or if exhibitors are unable to travel to Frankfurt in October on short notice due to the pandemic situation, no cancellation fees will be charged. 

"Thanks to support from the German government’s Federal Commissioner for Culture and Media, we can once again offer our exhibitors special conditions - something we are very grateful for. This assistance gives all of us planning security, so we can work together to realise a successful relaunch this October after a long period without physical events and face-to-face meetings", says Juergen Boos, Director of Frankfurter Buchmesse.
