The first events back at the Harrogate Convention Centre are still set to go ahead despite the lockdown delay.
Home and Gift Buyers Festival and the Manchester Furniture Festival will both be in the convention centre from July 18 to July 21.
It will mean the event will run for one day before the coronavirus restrictions are potentially eased on July 19.
Clarion Events, which is organising the events, has said it is working closely with local authorities to ensure it is safe.
Visitors will be asked to provide a negative lateral flow coronavirus test on the door or proof of double vaccination and wear a face mask.

There will be wider aisles, increased ventilation and daily cleaning regimines to try and prevent the spread of coronavirus as well.
Entry to both the Home and Gift Buyers Festival and the Manchester Furniture Festival is free. Visitors will need to register attendance here.
Show director Russell Rule said:
“With the backing of our key customers, venue, and local authorities, we can see that the appetite and enthusiasm is there for an in-person buying and selling event.
“There is great excitement from both exhibitors and visitors to reconnect in Harrogate.”
