With the health and wellbeing of members, staff and other attendees of this annual exhibition the ultimate priority, BIGGA has cancelled BTME for January 2021. Sadly, current understanding of the ongoing COVID-19 health crisis makes it clear that hosting the event as usual in January would create serious risk of disease transmission among attendees. It is proposed that "Continue To Learn" BIGGA's world leading education program will still be held, albeit ONLINE, during January 2021. The BIGGA website should provide more information on Continue to Learn as time goes on as well as their proposal to host an outdoor networking event "Festival of Turf" during summer 2021, where much of the networking and interaction between exhibitors and prospective clients that would normally occur at the BTME will take place.
