Aquaculture America 2021, which was rescheduled to August 11-14, 2021, will go forward on these dates with an in-person conference and trade show at the San Antonio Marriott Rivercenter, San Antonio, Texas, USA. 

“We have considered the COVID-19 situation and we feel that with vaccination progress and the measured return of in-person gatherings, we can go forward with Aquaculture America 2021. Specific measures related to COVID-19 safety protocols will be announced at a later date to reflect the most current guidance. We have received overwhelming interest from attendees and exhibitors asking us to hold this meeting in-person as many are eager for a return to face-to-face meetings,” the organization said.
