Following ongoing discussions between Hardware Association Ireland (HAI), Eventhaus and Citywest Conference Centre, on ongoing restrictions and limitations to access to site, a decision has been made to reschedule The Hardware Show to February 2022.
HAI President Michael O’Donohoe, Immediate Past President Sean Moran and CEO Martin Markey met with Citywest management earlier this week to discuss The Hardware Show, which to date had been scheduled to take place this November.
At the meeting Citywest conveyed the news that they have been contracted as a venue by the HSE until at least October 31st and that it will not re-open as a hotel or venue until January 2022.
Consequently, The Hardware Show has been rescheduled to February 20th and 21st 2022 in the same venue at Citywest. While this will cause inconvenience, we hope that exhibitors, sponsors and interested visitors understand that we were left with no alternative.
The Eventhaus team will contact all exhibitors regarding their bookings, and HAI will work closely with all exhibitors and other interested parties.
HAI CEO Martin Markey remains optimistic about these new dates and the future of the Show: “The new timing of The Hardware Show will enable us to capture the optimistic mood of the new year. This is especially the case for those launching new products. It will also align us with the successful timing of previous Hardware shows.”
Martin continues: “We are looking forward to what will hopefully be a more stable, certain time going forward, post-Covid, and a full, safe return to normalcy for our sector.”.
