“The pandemic and surge of the Delta variant has presented unexpected and insurmountable challenges for our global community,” said Chris Brown, executive vice president and managing director-global connections and events. “It has become apparent in the face of these challenges that we can no longer effectively host NAB Show or our co-located events, the Radio Show and Sales and Management Television Exchange, in person.”
NAB previously planned to hold the show in-person. Recently, it had added a COVID-19 vaccine requirement. The 2022 show, set for April 23-27, is still planned to be in-person, Brown said. Virtual events to replace the 2021 convention will be announced soon, NAB said.
