The moment thousands of #eventprofs turned their backs on Parliament, protesting the lack of government support to the crippled events industry. @BorisJohnson@RishiSunak@10DowningStreet targeted support is urgently needed to protect hundreds of thousands of jobs!
Suppliers, Venues and Organisers are standing quietly and peacefully at Parliament Square today sending a message to government that our industry can operate in a socially distanced and safe way. #WeMakeEvents
The collective knowledge and expertise of #eventprofs is ensuring that when organised events return, they will be safe and accessible
We can travel safely
We can browse supermarkets safely
We will walk our event floors safely
You're in good hands

Fantastic news that our industry can reopen and shows can being from October! All venues will no doubt be incredibly safe and well organised environments within which to do business, we'll update all our clients on the latest regulations over the coming weeks! #weareready
Organised events don't just create value for venues, organisers and suppliers.
Business events alone contribute £32 billion to the UK economy and are vital in supporting companies and jobs.
We need events to exchange ideas, make connections and do business.

@NickFerrariLBC Can you ask @RishiSunak about the events and exhibition industry? We just need a go date for Autumn opening but we need that date now!
- £70 billion industry.
- Best way to boost trade.
- Every other country has a date. youtu.be/slmJxPGD8BE
@SpringAutFair cancelled @thenec September. Another big loss to national and local #Economy due to no certainty of #trade fair restart date. @BorisJohnsonPMU says furlough scheme stopping people from working. Only thing stopping #eventprofs is a reopening date. @EventsAreGREAT
Risk that #exhibition organisers will do more of their #business overseas if no date for restart. Organisers report 58% of their turnover earned overseas worth £2.2 billion putting #uk companies in the top 10 service exports. They need certainty to organise more events in the UK.
The events industry creates real value for the economy
6th largest sector in the UK
Worth more than £70 billion
Employs more than 600,000 people
We're collaborating with @AEVnews @AEOnews and @ESSAnews to ensure it is protected and safeguarded for the future. @CWhittaker_MP
#event industry leaders pushing hard for restart date. #exhibition organisers write to @RishiSunak pleading for help, warning of damage being done. Strong risk of losing #tradefairs to overseas destinations. Let’s get #uk really open for #business. @EventsAreGREAT #eventprofs
