We must disappoint everyone who eagerly awaited the 32nd edition of the Techno-Classica in Essen. The big classic event is canceled, various German media report. We probably don’t need to elaborate on the cause.
The organization is forced by the corona virus to cancel the German Techno-Classica. The trade show would take place from 25 to 29 March. Various German media write that. Nothing is mentioned on the website of the classic fair. However, a corner of the website has been set up to let visitors know that the organization is keeping an eye on the developments surrounding the virus. However, according to the German media intended visitors do not have to mourn, because according to the same German media the plan is to shift the stock market. A second attempt would be made by the summer.
The Techno-Classica is one of Europe’s biggest events in the field of classic cars. Twelve halls will be transformed over 120,000 square meters into a large playground for fans of old cars. It is not a big surprise that the event will not take place, because 1,250 different exhibitors from 30 countries show their classics here every year. The event attracts more than 190,000 visitors from 46 different countries.
It is the third major car event that is being canceled by the corona virus. Earlier, a cut was made by the car fair in Beijing, China and Geneva International Motor Show.
