Tradexpos Inc. cancels 2021 Ft. Wayne Farm Show

 
FORT WAYNE, Ind. – Tradexpos Inc. has canceled the 32nd annual Fort Wayne Farm Show scheduled for March 9-11 at the Allen County War Memorial Coliseum.
Thousands of people from Indiana and the surrounding area attend the show each year to learn about, compare and purchase products from leaders in the agricultural industry.
After reviewing the COVID-19 regulations for events set by the state of Indiana, and current rates of infection, Tradexpos consulted with the coliseum staff about alternative options to proceed. There was not an option that would satisfy both Tradexpos’ high standard for the show and the state regulations.
Dan Slowinski, show director, said, “We exhausted multiple safety precautions in order to produce the iconic Fort Wayne Farm Show including: moving the show to March, modifying the floor plan and providing extra masks and sanitizer. In the end, although canceling the show was a tough decision, I feel we are taking the best course of action for everyone involved. I have no doubt the Fort Wayne Farm Show will return stronger than ever in 2022.”
The show is scheduled to resume in 2022, Jan. 18-20.
