I deeply regret having to postpone HOTel & Spa 2020
– Vladi Kovanic
Vladi Kovanic, director of VK Organisation – organiser of Forum HOTel&SPA – has cancelled the event for 2020.

It had been due to take place at the Four Seasons Hotel George V, Paris, on 20th April with the theme 'Thinking outside the box'.

Kovanic said the event will be held at the same venue on 27 May 2021.

"I deeply regret having to postpone Forum HOTel&SPA 2020," she said "however, all events are banned in France up to mid-July and we do not yet know when hotels and restaurants will be allowed to re-open.

"In addition, all borders to other EU countries are closed and flights grounded until further notice, so it's clear to see that under these circumstances, it is impossible to consider going ahead with the event.

"In 2021 our conference, theme, speakers and sponsors will remain the same and the working day will end with a luxurious cocktail party in the lounge of the Four Seasons George V Hotel."
