The Lyon Fair (Rhône) is usually held in March. Faced with the health crisis, the organizers were forced this Thursday, December 10, 2020, to postpone the event to the month of June 2021.
The 2020 edition had been canceled due to the coronavirus pandemic. In 2021, we can hope that it will again be possible to walk the aisles of Eurexpo during this traditional Lyon meeting.
A summer edition
The event will take place from June 19 to 27. This new summer version will make it possible to set up aoriginal animations according to the organizers.
Lyon Fair 2021: a “Summer” edition!
It is still too early to see each other again during our traditional meeting in March … so this year we are offering a special summer edition from June 19 to 27, 2021 ⛱☀️????!
We look forward to seeing you (finally) under the sun … pic.twitter.com/QrrKXaBihn– Lyon Fair (@foiredelyon) December 10, 2020
A new president
This year, the event will be orchestrated by a new president. This is Aurélie Prost who succeeds Véronique Szkudlarek. The latter leaves the presidency of the fair after 13 years of good and loyal service.
Aurélie Prost was previously deputy director of the event for 15 years. She had also been director of the Kidexpo show.
For this 2021 edition, it is therefore a renewal of dates and presidency for the Lyon fair which has already existed over a hundred years.
