On Tuesday and Wednesday, trade show attendees can participate in various seminars. Tuesday seminars will focus on the latest social media tools like location-based applications currently being implemented by some attractions. Attendees can learn the results of a study on the impact of fancommunities and also hear success stories regarding the use of intellectual property in the theme park industry.

Sessions held on Wednesday will feature the fourth edition of the IAAPA Europe Safety Seminar. Experts will discuss the latest information on ride safety, ride safety legislation, and health issues. Afternoon topics include human resource challenges and the latest management techniques to recruit, train, and retain employees. The day will conclude with the Waterpark Forum. All of these seminars are open to trade show attendees free of charge. Registration is not necessary; however, space is limited and seats will be available on a first-come, first-serve basis.
