Aquanor will go ahead, organisers say
Following the Norwegian government’s latest guidance on Covid-19 regulations, Aquanor 2021 will go ahead in August, the organisers have confirmed.
Aquanor, one of the biggest trade shows for the aquaculture industry, will be held this year as a “hybrid” event, with in-person presentations and stands, accompanied by a digital platform for those who cannot attend. The event is scheduled to take place in Trondheim, Norway over 24-27 August.
The event is organised by the Nor-Fishing Foundation. Announcing the latest news, the organisers said: “The board of the Nor-Fishing Foundation has decided that Aqua Nor 2021 will be carried out as planned in August. That means we will be meeting in Trondheim – as well as digitally.
“It is with great joy we announce that we can finally meet in Trondheim once again. The exhibition will be planned and executed in accordance with all infection control rules and guidelines to keep all participants safe.”
For UK industry representatives, Norway is currently an “amber list” country – which means that travellers would have to quarantine for 10 days on their return to the UK – and the UK is on Norway’s “red list”, which means that travellers from the UK other than EU/EEA citizens or those resident in Norway are generally not permitted to enter the country.
