World Model Expo postponed to 2021
With the ever increasing Covid-19 pandemic and no short term solution to be expected, we had to draw the inevitable conclusio
n that the World Model Expo cannot be held as planned in July of this year.
As organizers, and on behalf of the World Model Soldier Federation, we
also have a responsibility for health and safety of our visitors,
exhibitors and staff, and we take this responsibility serious.
Continued and stricter measures in all countries with regards to
internal and cross border travelling, and a ban on all events for a
longer period of time, have forced us in the past weeks to investigate
the options and we can announce that the 11th World Model Expo in
Eindhoven will now take place on July 2-3 and 4 2021.
We hope that the world be a healthier place in 15 months from now and that all of you will stay safe and healthy.
Practical info:
Workshops:
As the new dates are 15 months from, we cannot yet assure that the same
teachers who had planned to conduct their workshops at the WME will be
available then and if they will stay on board. We will first need to
check with them and then will let you know if the workshop you booked
for will take place at WME 2021. You can then decide whether you wish to
cancel your registration or not.
We will send all participants an
email about this in the days to come with the proper procedures. Please
understand it will take time to get feedback from all the workshop
teachers, so be patient and keep an eye on your email inbox, and the
spam folder too.
Vendors:
We will send all registered vendors
a newsletter by email, in which we explain the situation for them and
which steps to take. We ask all registered vendors to watch their spam
folder too, so we can avoid unnecessary email traffic. Vendors can
expect that email by Friday latest. Until then, please be patient.
Hotel rooms:
The hotel, NH Eindhoven Conference Centre Koningshof, has informed us
that it is not possible for them to automatically change all
reservations that are made. Practically this means that all room
reservations will be cancelled, obviously free of charge, and that you
should make new reservations as soon as we can re-open the NH event tool
again. WE aore sorry that we cannot bring you any better news, but we
do not run the hotel.
We will announce on the WME website and on Facebook when the NH Event Tool can be used for reservations again.
