Euro Attractions Show (EAS) is coming to London
Premier conference and trade show for the attractions industry in Europe scheduled for 27-30 September

Brussels- Belgium From Wednesday, 27 September to Friday, 30 September, the Olympia Exhibition Center is hosting the largest conference and trade show for the attractions industry in Europe. This three-day event features more than 270 exhibitors showcasing the latest products and services for the industry. The event also includes seminars and workshops focusing on the most recent developments in the industry. The event is expected to attract more than 8,000 visitors from 60 countries. EAS is organised by the European Office of the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA).

Lets meet in London
European amusement and attractions owners, operators, and suppliers will experience the vibrancy of London during Euro Attractions Show 2011. “Going to London for EAS is a natural progression for IAAPA and the Euro Attractions Show. With our strong relationship with BALPPA (The British Association of Leisure Parks, Piers & Attractions) and the large number of attractions in the United Kingdom it is, without question, one of the best places to take EAS,” stated Mats Wedin, Chairman of the IAAPA European Advisory Committee. EAS is organized in a different European country each year.

Olympia Exhibition Center
The Olympia Exhibition Center, is known for its stunning Victorian architecture, magnificent galleries, and ornate barrel-vaulted roof. It was recently renovated and will provide a dramatic setting for the Euro Attractions Show.
