AMSTERDAM – Denim trade fair Kingpins has cancelled its Amsterdam event, which was set to take place 22-23 April, due to escalating cases of the coronavirus around the world, particularly within Europe.
Its Hong Kong showcase was cancelled last month due to the travel restrictions and guidelines first imposed across Asia, where the virus originated.
Kingpins founder Andrew Olah has said: “We have been monitoring this situation very closely and had been hoping to have the show go on, but in light of the travel restrictions our attendees and exhibitors are experiencing and the overarching concern for the health and safety of the community, we have no choice but to cancel Kingpins Amsterdam.”
