LAMMA 2022 confirms new show dates of Wednesday 4th - Thursday 5th May, 2022

The LAMMA Show announced today that it will move its dates from 11th-12th January to 4th-5th May 2022 in response to the evolving COVID-19 situation due to the Omicron variant. All plans for the 40th anniversary edition will be carried over to the spring edition, when the LAMMA show will welcome over 600 exhibitors and 40,000 attendees face-to-face, who will gather to connect over the latest machinery, technology and equipment for the farming industry.

Sanjeev Khaira, the Arc director leading Agriconnect, organisers of LAMMA, said, “Over the past few days, we have seen a significant increase in the uncertainty of COVID-19 regulations. We have built robust health and safety plans for the LAMMA 2022 event. However, with distribution and supply chain challenges and the potential lockdowns or restrictions, we are all uncertain about how the situation will look in January. After speaking with many of our exhibitors and attendees, we have taken the challenging decision to postpone.”

Kate Walsh, LAMMA Event Manager, said “The team and I are saddened to be making this announcement today. We have been hard at work planning for the 40th anniversary edition of LAMMA, and were very much looking forward to bringing the agricultural industry together. The past few years have been challenging for the farming community, and we had hoped LAMMA in January would be a great way to start off the New Year and spur momentum in the industry. However, after listening to you, and sharing your concerns about the COVID situation, we believe moving the show to the spring will provide the best opportunity for us to meet face-to-face and deliver on the objectives of both our exhibitors and visitors.”

There will be no changes to the LAMMA 2022 floorplan or show features as a result of the date change. Visitor registration will remain open and there is no need to register again if you have already done so. The next edition, Wednesday 4th - Thursday 5th May 2022, will take place at the NEC, Birmingham. For more information and to register to attend, please visit www.lammashow.com.

I thought the same
Only went on day 1 and thought it was quiet compared to other years
I would say there are swathes of folk who would normally attend the shows who are self employed or business owners who looked at the covid situation and decided that they didn’t want to risk catching covid and having to lockdown for 10 days, as the media like to tell us how bad it’s definitely getting, when in truth no one knows.

I do wonder if lamma are on a one way street with the situation and in a few years will it disappear and the midland machinery show be the new version?
Tough time’s
