HVAC&R show to return to ExCel next year

UK: The HVAC & Refrigeration Live show, which returned to London’s Excel in April after a five-year hiatus, is to become an annual event.

Datateam, the publisher and organiser of the show, has secured dates for 16-17 April 2024 at ExCel, according to a report on the website of one of the group’s magazines, ACR News.

The decision on an annual frequency and the choice of venue is said to have been taken following feedback from exhibitors and visitors at this year’s event.

Event manager Tony Patman said: “It seems clear that the industry wants and deserves to have an annual dedicated platform to represent it, which Datateam Business Media is pleased to be able to facilitate once again. Both visitors and potential visitors have indicated that Excel is their preferred venue, so we are aiming to provide what the industry wants.
