Looks like just a week prior to the start of the site or has been cancelled due to the COVID-19 outbreak happening across Europe.

I wonder if they'll hold it behind closed doors just for press etc. :(

Well the Swiss government have banned all meetings of more than 1,000 people in one place.

I'd be staying at home unless you must travel.

Nah, the whole thing got written off. All reveals are being done in print/online as per the previously agreed embargoes and some are being hosted online, while a few others have gone off on a tangent and done something different with their unrevealed show cars (Morgan is currently driving its car back to the UK for a reveal here, for example).

Quite a few journalists ended up in Geneva, though, as some travelled out late last week. Some of the other associated trips are still taking place, too, because everything's paid for and can't be cancelled. Quite the costly turn of events.
 
Koenigsegg and Top Gear went.
Was wondering what happened to the freevalve technology, good to see it being used in a production car.

I don't have to travel but it's not a no-travel area though....what's wrong with just going and doing other stuff there for a couple of days?
