Beijing Show Still On For September, Organizers Implementing Multiple Safety Measures

After its postponement back in April due to the coronavirus pandemic, the 2020 Beijing Auto Show remains on track to take place in late September in the Chinese capital city.

The event, which is the largest car show in China, will run from September 26 through October 5, with media days taking place on September 26-27, as per the China Council for the Promotion of International Trade.

This is the same schedule that was announced back in April, but only after the pandemic showed signs of slowing down by mid-March in the People’s Republic.

In order to make the event safe for participants and visitors alike, the organizers will implement various safety measures. However, it’s unclear whether or not capacity will be limited in any way – although that might be a good idea seen as how sporadic cluster infections have emerged in several Chinese cities these past few months, reports Autonews Europe.

Last month, the virus spread from a wholesale food and meat market in Beijing, infecting no fewer than 335 local residents, according to Chinese officials.

In order to not lose control of the situation, the Beijing municipal government ramped up testing and locked down residential areas near the market, and on August 6, officials stated that all patients that were infected had been cured and released from hospitals.

Since its introduction back in 1990, the Beijing Auto Show has become one of the world’s most important car fairs. The event is held every two years, alternating with the Shanghai Auto Show.
