Australian Motor Show cancels 2013 edition

News this week: The Australian International Motor Show (AIMS) has announced the cancellation of the 2013 edition of the exhibition which was originally scheduled to be held in June in Melbourne.


According to the AIMS organiser, the decision to cancel based on consensus from the local auto industry and it follows a trend of recent suspensions and cancellations of motor shows in in London, Zagreb and Amsterdam. The view of the Australian industry was that due to limited marketing budgets, potential exhibitors planned to allocate spend to activities other than exhibiting. Future editions of the show have not been ruled out.
