2021 World Potato Congress, Ireland: Change of Dates Announced

-

The previously scheduled dates of the WPC Congress in Ireland (May 24-27, 2021) have been moved by one week to May 31 to June 2, 2021 due to the Dublin Bloom Festival (https://bloominthepark.com/).

This will allow 2021 WPC Congress participants and their partners to enjoy this important Irish horticulture event in the city, and for the  Irish promotion board ‘Bord Bia’ (one of the major sponsors of WPC and organizer of the Bloom Festival) to make a link between the World Potato Congress in Dublin and the local consumers highlighting the potato during the WPC 2021 event.
