We’ve suffered through the COVID19 pandemic for over a year, and there are still in-person shows listed online without any mention of basic safety precautions. It’s ridiculous, and I won’t have any part of their irresponsibility. You won’t find those shows in my list. Below are New Zealand and Australian shows which do have precautions, and one really big online event. The World Orchid Conference<\/a> is also known as the Orchid Olympics. It happens every three years, and was postponed last year. This month, a limited, in-person exhibit with COVID19 precautions will happen in Taiwan, and much of the conference will happen online. It’s pricey at about $100 (USD) registration fee, but it is a great opportunity for everybody around the world who would like to participate in this major orchid event.<\/p>\n
