Licensing China, along with concurrent shows Toy & Edu China and Baby & Stroller China will now take place from 5 – 7 May 2022. The show dates have been pushed back from their original dates at the end of March, in order to support pandemic containment efforts.The fairs will still take place at the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center . Wendy Wen, Senior General Manager of Messe Frankfurt (HK) Ltd commented: “As part of the effort to contain the spread of Covid-19, the local government has mobilised designated areas of the Shenzhen World Exhibition & Convention Center as a temporary resource and cross-border transportation facility, to assist with pandemic prevention efforts, with this arrangement expected to last for one month. During this time, the concerned areas of the venue will be enclosed and will only be reopened after thorough disinfection.Therefore, in order to align with the pandemic containment and prevention efforts and to safeguard the health and safety of fairgoers, the organisers have decided to delay the three shows until 5 – 7 May.”
