The ongoing dynamic situation, the ever-increasing demands on events and the enormous planning uncertainty make the next necessary steps more difficult. With the rapidly increasing infection rates of the Omicron variant across Europe and especially in some neighbouring countries that are already in a new lockdown, the organisers do face very complex challenges in many respects.

After the extensive consideration of the overall situation with an extremely serious situation in many places, the organisers feel obliged to cancel Munich Fabric Start Spring/Summer 23 from 25 – 27 January 2022. With regards to Bluezone and Keyhouse, an alternative scenario will be realised: both formats will skip the January show and move forward to 3 – 4 May 2022 as a dedicated denim and innovation show on the Zenith grounds in Munich.

The decisive factors for this major decision are various realistic scenarios which need to be considered to occur within the coming weeks: a new lockdown in Germany with a possible event ban imposed at very short notice, further restrictions on events and additional travel restrictions.
