Having organised two virtual IHGF shows during the pandemic, the Export Promotion Council for Handicrafts (EPCH) has confirmed that the 51st edition of the IHGF Delhi Fair will take place physically from 19-23 May at the India Expo Centre & Mart, Greater Noida, Delhi NCR.
To encourage international visitors to attend, a Special Promotional Scheme for overseas buyers offers ‘star’ category hotel accommodation at US$100 (including breakfast, taxes, airport transfer, and transfers to and from the exhibition venue) for 4 nights during the show.
