190 fairs canceled or postponed in Spain and 3,300 in Europe already leave a trail of 28.8 billion euros in losses until the end of June. Figures that have led to the Association of Spanish Fairs (AFE) and the Association of Congress Palaces of Spain (APCE), which also recall that other events such as 270 congresses have been suspended in our country, have decided to join efforts to request aid for the sector.
The two associations represent a sector paralyzed by the health crisis of COVID-19 and have decided to transfer their concern to the Ministry of Industry, Commerce and Tourism in order to mitigate the effects of the crisis generated by COVID-19 and resume as soon as possible. The activity is possible, trusting that its claim will translate into help to face the difficult situation.
