2021 American Food Fair and National Restaurant Association Show Cancelled

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic and the unavailability of McCormick Place, the National Restaurant Association and NASDA have announced the cancellation of the 2021 Show. NASDA will be communicating options for exhibitors to roll their exhibit space payments forward to the 2022 event or receive a refund.

If you booked your hotel reservations through the show’s official housing provider—onPeak—your reservations will be automatically cancelled. If you did not book through onPeak, we suggest contacting your hotel to cancel it immediately to avoid any penalties.

The 2022 American Food Fair at the National Restaurant Association Show will take place May 21-24, 2022 at the McCormick Place convention center in Chicago, Illinois. When we reunite next year, it will be in an environment unlike anything any of us have ever experienced, an environment filled with renewed energy and unmatched connection as the restaurant community seeks new products, concepts, innovation and thought leadership to reimagine foodservice.

We recognize the critical importance of the show to the industry and look forward to hopefully seeing you at the 2022 American Food Fair. In the meantime, please contact Megan McDonald and Blake Ramsey if you have any questions.
