The show said it continues to follow all safety advice and precautions, as recommended by the UK’s Department of Health and Social Care and the Foreign and Commonwealth Office, as well as the World Health Organisation (WHO).

And it recommended attendees “maintain good hand, respiratory and personal hygiene.”

“We look forward to kbb and forecast this year’s edition to be among the largest and most well-attended.”
