Despite selling over half of their show floor five months out from the event, the co-owners of Get Global 2020, Gary Bender and Donna Kessler, have decided to postpone due to concerns over the implications COVID-19 will have on buyer’s capacity to book and spend in the year ahead.

Get Global has already sold almost half of its floor plan for 2020; with confirmed returning exhibitors from Asia, Europe & UK, Hawaii, New Zealand, Africa and the Arabian Peninsula.

Get Global, the show dedicated to the outbound business events market, delivered on its third year at ICC Sydney last week, with over 340 registered buyers and 120 exhibitors from all over the world.

Next Friday, Gary Bender and Donna Kessler will open the doors of the third Get Global, welcoming industry from all corners of the globe, including 40 per cent brand-new exhibitors to the show.

World-class hotels from across the globe will have a strong presence at Get Global this year, with over 35% of all registered exhibitors coming from a hotel brand, and of those, nine are exhibiting for the first time.
