    It would appear that the 2020 LABACE show normally held in Sao Paulo has been cancelled for this year becoming another casualty of COVID-19. The Brazilian Association of General Aviation (ABAG) announced this recently. "Due to the global pandemic situation, ABAG's board of directors and the exhibitors have decided that this would be the best course of action. We tried...assessing the possibility of putting the event off or holding a smaller one, but we got to the conclusion that neither of the alternatives were feasible," said ABAG CEO Flavio Pires. The next LABACE is planned for August 2021.

    Looks like the 2021 edition of the show will go ahead with the dates set. Nov 9th to the 11th are the dates for this year's show which as you know is much later in the year than usual. LABACE is normally held around August but the ABAG decided to push it back by a couple months to allow for more wiggle room for the pandemic situation to get better. Time will tell if the show will happen towards the end of this year but the dates are set and preparations being made.

    The business aviation association in Brazil has cancelled LABACE which was pushed back to November. The association canceled the 2021 edition of the São Paulo fair, Latin America’s largest aviation event, "due to global and local uncertainties…principally those related to new variants of Covid-19." Now they are looking to 2022 at the normal August timeline.
