What is new for IFA 2020

In response to the restrictions imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic, IFA Berlin has been converted into a three-day event with a tight schedule and a limit on the number of attendees. The new dates for IFA Berlin 2020 are 3 - 5 September and will not be open to the public, instead running as an invitation-only event. The show programme will consist of four effectively stand-alone events with no more than 1,000 attendees admitted at each of them per day. The events are: the IFA Global Press Conference, IFA Global Markets, IFA Business, Retail & Meeting Lounges and a combined event for IFA NEXT and SHIFT Mobility. A Virtual IFA Experience will also be offered for those who cannot attend in person.
