The Halls & Walls climbing gym convention, organized by the German Alpine Association (Deutscher Alpenverein / DAV) and scheduled for Nov. 6-7, had to be canceled due to the corona pandemic and the associated official requirements and orders. Since 2017, the climbing sports industry has been meeting for two days every year at the Nuremberg exhibition center to offer a wide range of products and an intensive exchange of information. In 2019, Halls & Walls attracted around 1,200 trade visitors from Germany, Europe and the whole world.
