Vor diesem Hintergrund wird das noch junge Jahr 2019 wieder spannend und innovativ, wenn in 2. Auflage die „Handwerk“, die wichtigste Fachmesse für Holz, Werkzeug, Farbe & Handel, direkt im Anschluss an die XY Messe über die Bühne geht.
Against this background, the year 2019 which is still at the outset??...will once again become exciting and innovative..
Vielen Dank!

2019 is still young
"The year is still young" is quite normal in English. So either my suggestion above or perhaps "The year is still young, and 2019 is going to be another exciting and innovative year...".
Or something along those lines.

The still nascent year is shaping up to be filled with excitement and innovation/exciting and innovative events are shaping up this still nascent year.

Discussion
In light of the above...
https://ludwig.guru/s/in light of the above
Though I'm not sure what's wrong with "backdrop"? E.g.,
"Against this backdrop Hubbub will continue to deliver a wide variety of practical campaigns with an increased focus on addressing climate change and creating stronger local communities."
https://www.hubbub.org.uk/blog/the-sustainability-crystal-ba...
Also, while I agree that 2019 isn't in the right place, there is little wrong with once again (though again, I would have phrased it differently):
"Exeter’s longest running lifestyle magazine will once again be shining the spotlight on the world of business."
https://www.exeterchamber.co.uk/blog/2018/07/19/exeter-s-lon...
This doesn't mean that their previous business special was a failure.
Good solution for Hintergrund:
"In short, the Wasps arena is the perfect venue for exhibitors and visitors alike, and a new home for the UK print industry."

Against this background -> wenn dann "in front of" und vielleicht backdrop, aber doch nicht background... wir reden ja nicht von einer Tapete... und wie soll 2019 "once again" etwas werden... 2019 gibt es nur einmal und es kommt nicht wieder und ansonsten könnte man es ggf. auch so deuten, dass 2018 nicht so toll war und das würde man in einem Marketing Text doch nie einräumen...
