ROTORTECH 2021

Given the recent course of COVID-related travel constraints has suggested that the prospect of internal domestic border closures and the continuation of international travel restrictions may adversely affect ease of travel to Brisbane in October. To avoid any continuing uncertainty for exhibitors, participants and industry, we have therefore decided to defer ROTORTECH until mid-next year, by which time the prospect of border restrictions and travel constraints should, hopefully, have passed. The new dates for ROTORTECH will be Tuesday 15 June to Thursday 17 June 2021 and the venue, the Royal International Convention Centre in Brisbane, is unchanged.
