Our commitment to your safety
Your safety has always been one of our top priorities, and now more than ever. We’ve implemented new guidelines and policies to make our events and venues the cleanest and safest places to meet and do business. Every attendee, including visitors, exhibitors, partners and staff are expected to comply with our health and safety requirements.
Verifying COVID-19 status
Partnership SGS
This Health & Safety protocol was created in partnership with SGS and is designed to ensure your safety and peace of mind while attending our event.

To ensure the safety of the event, everyone entering will be required to wear a face mask and to provide a:
- Valid Covid Safe Ticket
- Identity Card
- Valid entry ticket
Covid Safe Ticket
Everyone must present a Covid Safe Ticket: visitors, exhibitors, stand personnel and Easyfairs staff. A valid Covid Safe Ticket is issued to:
- Holders of a valid vaccination certificate who have been fully vaccinated for more than 2 weeks
- Holders of a recovery certificate less than 6 months old
- Those who have a negative PCR test taken no more than 48 hours prior to the trade show
- Those who have a quick antigen test administered by medically trained personnel no more than 24 hours prior to the trade show.
Take into account that a PCR test has a limited validity of just 48 hours after the day of testing. Antigen tests are only valid for 24 hours after the day of testing. In other words, you may have to get tested again during the trade show.
There will be a rapid test center on site for visitors, exhibitors, and staff lacking a CST (10€/test).

Personal protection & detection
Face masks
We kindly remind you that wearing a face mask is mandatory. We encourage you to bring your own, but event staff will be on hand to provide one if you forget!
Plexiglass shields
Plexiglass shields will be installed at registration desks, information points, catering points and all counters staffed by team members throughout the event floor.
Cleaning & Hygiene
Disinfection
All surfaces at an Easyfairs event are treated with hospital-grade disinfectants.The most frequently touched surfaces will be disinfected at regular intervals. Electrostatic spraying technology ensures the highest standards of hygiene.
Hand hygiene
Hand sanitiser stations will be available everywhere on the exhibition floor and in common areas such as seminar theatres. Please make good use of them! Disposable gloves are available.
Food & drinks
You can still purchase food and drinks at our events and venues. Our caterers will respect all the security rules that are imposed by the government.
Cashless payment
To protect your personal health and safety, we only accept cashless payments at Easyfairs venues.
Ventilation
We provide the necessary CO2 meters in all our halls and ensure adequate ventilation.
Physical distancing
Stay home if you feel ill
Finally, as much as we want to see you at our events, we kindly ask you to respect everyone’s health and safety. If you feel at all ill – including mild cold symptoms or a high temperature – please stay at home.
Directional walkways
Art Antwerp has two entrees/exits with distinct flows for entering and exiting visitors.
Social distancing
The aisles at Art Antwerp are larger than 5 meter and 10 meter high ceilings. We recommend that attendees and visitors respect the 1,5 meter distance where possible.
Avoid physical contact
No hand shaking or kissing
Online ticket sales
Some Easyfairs events require you to purchase a ticket. Please purchase tickets online in advance, as this will not be possible onsite. You can either print out your ticket, which has a barcode, or bring it on your mobile device. You will then be able to scan the barcode at one of our touchless scanning stations. Please note that for your safety, onsite printing is no longer possible.
One-way only aisles
One-way-only aisles will help to manage traffic and minimise crowding. They will also make it easier for you to respect the social distancing rules and avoid crossing the paths of other visitors.
Maximum capacity in conference rooms
Conference areas will also allow for social distancing, with 1.5 metres between chairs. This means there will be limited capacity, so please arrive early. Some chairs may be marked as unavailable. Please respect this instruction and do not move the chairs.
Thank you!
Thank you for observing these rules – stay safe and we hope to see you soon at one of our events!
