PIC won't proceed with alternate date due to ongoing uncertainties.

In the context of the recent outbreak of novel corona virus (COVID-19), the Poultry Industry Council issued the following statement:

Due to the evolving situation related to the COVID-19 global pandemic, the National Poultry Show will not be held April 8th & 9th, 2020.
In order to support ongoing preventative measures, and to ensure the safety and well-being of our members and broader community, the Poultry Industry Council board of directors has been working with Western Fair District to explore the possibility of hosting the show on another date.
However, due to ongoing uncertainty we will not be proceeding with an alternate date.
The Poultry Industry Council was looking forward to the upcoming National Poultry Show as it is our chance to create a space for the industry to come together to network, learn, and share ideas that help drive the sector forward.
We appreciate the support the industry shows this event year over year, and commit to continuously serving the industry’s needs. We look forward to seeing you at the 2021 National Poultry Show April 7th & 8th.
The Western Fair District will be contacting exhibitors directly with information related to booth space and bookings.
