IAAPA Expo with Largest Trade Show Floor in 10 Years

The IAAPA Attractions Expo held in Orlando truly lives up to its description as the world’s largest international trade show for the leisure and attractions industry: According to the organizers, this year’s expo, taking place from 18 to 22 November at the Orange County Convention Center, will feature more square footage than any of its expos in the past ten years. As of 31 October, 1,100 companies have already signed up to present their new ride concepts, attractions, technologies etc. on more than 48,500 square meters of exhibit space. The indoor exhibit space at the North/South Halls of the convention center is already completely sold out. As the organizers announced, there are only a few spaces available in the outdoor area (the outdoor exhibit space is the largest in the show’s history). Furthermore, more than 110 companies (ten percent of the exhibitors) will present their products and services as first-time exhibitors. (eap)
