The Vision Council and Reed Exhibitions announce that Vision Expo East 2021, originally scheduled to take place from March 18–21, will now take place May 25–28, 2021 at the Javits Center in New York City.

The date change reflects a proactive decision by the Show’s organizers in the interest of providing more time for companies to effectively plan their participation during this challenging period for the optical marketplace.

The decision to host Vision Expo East in May instead of March is the result of thoughtful communication with vision community members over the past few months.

The organizers learned that finalizing Q1 plans is proving to be a challenge for many members of the optical community. With this in mind, as well as the health and safety of the community, they made the decision to host the event in late May to give our members and exhibitors at Vision Expo the time they need to make their plans.

“While 2021 may look different than years past, we are energized by the resilience the industry has demonstrated in the face of COVID-19. Our community is only as strong as its friendships, associations, and business relationships, which is why we are working diligently to host a Vision Expo event where new relationships are forged and friends can meet face to face again”, according the The Vision Council release.

Additional details on Vision Expo East’s new neighborhoods, educational programming and special features will be announced in the coming months.
