NEWS: Decor + Design will return to the Melbourne Exhibition Centre from 14 – 17 July, 2022. The 18th edition of Australia’s No.1 Interiors Trade Event has been postponed this year due to the recent COVID-19 outbreaks and ongoing issues with state border closures.
Decor + Design Exhibition Director Chris May says that the show will return at a time that’s right for the whole industry.
“Decor + Design is Australia’s most important forum for the design and furniture industry, and it’s crucial it takes place at the best time. Unfortunately, the events industry has been particularly hard hit by the uncertainties of COVID-19.”
“Given the recent COVID outbreaks in Victoria and NSW and each state government’s response, the sensible decision is to reschedule the show until 2022. Running the show this year would severely impact visitors and exhibitors from interstate, as well as overall attendance. July 2022 will be a time that’s right for everyone.”
As a major design industry event, this decision was not taken lightly. Trade and business events are essential to the Australian economy, contributing an estimated $23 billion (EEAA) in a usual year.
The past year has also proved to us how important in person gatherings are for the human spirit, as well as business. We look forward to returning in 2022 and will keep supporting the design industry through the latest news, product releases, exhibitor features and virtual masterclasses.
