Vision Expo, the biannual eyewear trade show, is moving forward with an in-person format.
Vision Expo, the biannual eyewear trade show, is moving forward with an in-person format for Vision Expo West in Las Vegas Sept. 23 to 26 at the Sands Expo Convention Center.
Due to COVID-19, Vision Expo East, set to be held in New York City in March, was canceled, with Barkley explaining, “following a period of disruption and unprecedented challenges for the industry, we feel it is more important than ever to bring the community together for a weekend of connection, learning and doing business, but being able to ensure the safety and wellbeing of everyone in attendance at the Show has always been our highest priority,” he said.
“This is the first time we have had a task force like this in place as part of show planning,“ Barkley said. ”The goal is to organize Vision Expo West in line with guidance from public health officials, including the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, World Health Organization, state and local governments and the protocols put in place by venue partners.
“We are monitoring the Las Vegas reopening rollout very closely and will develop and update our protocols as needed over the coming weeks,” Barkley said of the developing nature of the response to pandemic. “We will communicate regularly with all our attendees and exhibitors so that we can bring the vision community together again under the best possible circumstances.“
