As the organiser of Architecture & Building Expo and The RIAI Annual Conference, we are committed to providing a safe and secure event. Under current guidelines the Institute of Public Health in Ireland measures confirm that indoor events can take place where all visitors are immune (fully vaccinated or recovered from COVID-19 within previous 6 months) and we will operate strictly under this guidance. Our Halls in the RDS are large, open well-ventilated spaces with a capacity much greater than we require for the Expo and Conference. The Hall floorplan has been adjusted to allow greater aisle widths and the spacing of exhibits that adhere to the Irish Event Organisers Association code of Best Practice for Safe Events.
