BLE has partnered with ExpressTest by Cignpost to facilitate all testing requirements for international attendees. Anyone needing to take a day 2 test to enter England will be able to purchase a ‘click and collect’ testing kit to be picked up at ExCeL. The tests can be self-administered in any location with results uploaded online. Those requiring a ‘fit to fly’ test for re-entry into their country of origin will also be able to benefit from an onsite service with tests carried out by Cignpost staff in secure private meeting rooms at the venue. The test booking service will open during the first week of November and information will be posted here and communicated through social media and via email.
