Regent Street Motor Show postponed
Next month’s Regent Street Motor Show has been postponed until 2021 as a result of the global Covid-19 pandemic.
The single-day event was scheduled for the Saturday, 31 October.
Nick Wigley, CEO of Goose Live Events, which organises the automotive showcase on behalf of the Royal Automobile Club, said: “Following a detailed feasibility study regarding the running of the 2020 Regent Street Motor Show, it is with regret that we have reached the difficult – if understandable – decision to postpone the Show until next year.
“Our priority at all times is the safety and wellbeing of those attending our events as well as our own team. It is clear that the restrictions and additional protocols required to ensure the Show would be safe for tens of thousands of visitors, our stakeholders and our staff present a significant hurdle. And with the news of the UK government’s latest legislation stating that a maximum of six people are able to meet as a group, the Show –– as an event where family and friends can gather – was put into even further question.”
