Nuremberg (dpa) - The Nuremberg Toy Fair, which has been postponed to summer from the beginning of the year and the world's most important meeting place for the industry, will not take place this year.
The organizers had agreed not to hold the event this year due to the imponderables of the Corona crisis, Spielwarenmesse eG announced on Tuesday.
"Initially, we received good feedback on the Summer Edition from both exhibitors and trade visitors," said CEO Ernst Kick.
"For the last few weeks, however, the disappointingly slow improvement in the pandemic has been causing uncertainty in the industry."
The organizers tried to save the big event by moving it to the summer.
"Due to the great uncertainty that continues to emanate from the corona pandemic on a national and international level, the date will be canceled and the focus will now be on the Toy Fair 2022," it said on Tuesday.
