Since the COVID-19 crisis took hold in the United States in March, our top priority has been delivering a safe and successful Impressions Expo at the Atlantic City Convention Center. As you know, we made the decision to postpone our March event to October based on enthusiastic and positive feedback from attendees at that time.

However, based on most recent events and after further consultation with many of you, it has become clear that staging the event in October will not be possible. As a result, we are extremely disappointed to announce the cancellation of Impressions Expo Atlantic City, previously rescheduled for October 8-10, 2020 at the Atlantic City Convention Center in Atlantic City, NJ.

Recent developments have made it impossible to bring attendees and brands together safely and successfully. This is due to the ongoing progression of the COVID-19 pandemic in the U.S., including the latest government data, measures, and guidelines on the phased reopening plans in the U.S.; current restrictions on congregating and large gatherings imposed by states and other government and public health authorities; and the various company-imposed travel restrictions on employees affecting attendees and participating companies.

Impressions Expo will be back in Atlantic City March 25-27, 2021 and we look forward to seeing you all there!

We at Impressions Expo value your ongoing loyalty and our thoughts are with all of you during this time.

Stay safe, stay healthy.
