Re: Emerald Cancels Interbike 2019 Show [nealhe]
[ In reply to ]
Hello All,
Interbike cancellation shocks industry
SAN JUAN CAPISTRANO, Calif. (BRAIN) — While many say they saw it coming, much of the industry still found reason to react when Emerald Expositions announced Thursday that it was pulling the plug on the 2019 Interbike show. Emerald said it is examining options to bring the show back in 2020 in a lower cost format. Alongside the many reactions in the comment sections, BRAIN's interim publisher, Marc Sani, weighed in with a column suggesting that Interbike died an unnecessary death. Industry personage Ray Keener responded that the show's demise is a blow to the industry, but may ultimately make it stronger.

Hello All,
https://www.pinkbike.com/...for-trade-shows.html
The move to Reno failed to buck the trends and, as number fell yet again, the show had to close. Emerald have promised to bring back Interbike for 2020 but, having lost most of its management staff, there’s no telling what it may look like. So what does this mean for the other big cycling trade shows? Let’s take a look through the other shows around the world in the mountain bike world to understand where they may go next.
Eurobike
2018 Exhibitors - 1,400 (+0%)
2018 Attendance - 37,379 (-12%)
Eurobike was moved forward in the calendar to July in 2018 in order to combat online releases of new products. The idea… didn’t work.
The new date clashed with the start of the Tour de France and peak riding season, which spread brands and shops thin. The new date also meant exhibitors had to try and fit a year’s worth of work into nine months to get themselves ready for Eurobike.
