The show was due to be held at the NEC in Birmingham on March 25 and 26.

Organisers said that after consultation with the NEC and many exhibitors it will now take place on June 3 and 4 at the same venue.

Show Director, Maddie Maclellan said: “This was not an easy decision, but the unprecedented global situation has many of our European partners responding to more extreme concerns than those we currently face in the UK.”

Numerous global participants, exhibitors and visitors have been ordered to cancel international travel.

Maclellan added: “There can be no remaining doubt that this best serves the interests of all participants in the UK concrete industry show”.

The change to running in June will allow the popular show to develop its activities in the outside area, according to show founder and Marketing Director, Steven Callaghan.

He said: “There is limited enthusiasm among both exhibitors and visitors for spending time outside of the comfortable hall environment in late March, but early June is another matter, so I’m looking forward to developing our demo program and exterior display area.”
