Europa-Park Resort welcomed IAAPA's board of

directors global meeting

Update : 20:14 Published by François Mayné the 1 July 2012, Event.
On the occasion of his chairmanship of the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attraction (IAAPA), Europa-Park’s Managing Partner Roland Mack hosted the association’s global board of directors meeting at Europa-Park, Rust, Germany 18-20, June 2012.

The 24 board members, consisting of operators and owners of some of the leading amusement parks in the world, travelled from Chile, Indonesia, Philippines, Sweden, United States, and more to participate in the three-day event which included daily meetings, interesting discussions about the industry, park and resort tours, and evening entertainment.

The focus of the meeting was to discuss and plan the future strategy of association as the global association for the attractions industry. Other priority topics discussed were safety, sustainability, and intellectual property rights as well as Europe’s largest trade event for the attractions industry, Euro Attractions Show 2012. Representing more than 4.300 members worldwide, with 900 member companies in Europe, the mission of IAAPA is to serve the membership by promoting safe operations, global development, professional growth, and commercial success of the amusement parks and attractions industry.

“Safety is our top priority and it is important to harmonize the international safety standards. When families visit theme parks they seek a fun and safe day out in Europe just as they do in Asia, the US or in South America. In the end, an incident no matter where it happens, will affect the entire attractions industry. We therefore can’t afford to have different safety standards around the world,” said Roland Mack.

The board members benefited from this opportunity to gather together in Germany at Europa-Park as they were able to experience the attractions, shows, and hospitality of Germany’s largest amusement park. They participated in unique backstage tours of the park and a tour of the soon-to-be-opened Bell Rock hotel which is part of the Europa-Park Resort. It is scheduled to open on 12 July. The week was completed with a visit to the headquarters of Mack Rides in Waldkirch.

The worldwide attractions industry will meet again from 9-11 October, in Berlin, Germany at the Euro Attractions Show 2012. Roland Mack will open the event as keynote speaker. The event has more than 350 exhibitors and organizers expect 8.000 visitors who will attend to see the newest trends and products in the industry, network, engage in seminars, and see more of Germany’s unique attractions industry.
