Art Vancouver has postponed its huge international art fair and is waiting to secure new dates for 2020.

The event was supposed to have taken place from April 16 to 19 at the Vancouver Trade and Convention Centre.

"Whilst we are disappointed to have to postpone the Art Vancouver fair, the health and safety of all our exhibitors, visitors and team are the main priority in light of the ever-changing coronavirus (COVID-19) situation," organizers said in a press statement today. "Ticket holders will be notified regarding new dates in the coming days. For more information please see Eventbrite."

The sixth edition of the event, founded by Lisa Wolfin, featured exhibits, speakers series, and art demos, all under the theme Uniting Nations Through Art.
