These past three years have been intense for NewsParcs. Our magazine, which has been dedicated to the global theme parks industry since 1998, underwent major changes to become one of the most appreciated magazines among many professionals and enthusiasts.
Aiming to bring a different perspective to this exciting industry, we devoted all of our energy to the originality and relevance of our articles, both for our or expert readers and for the inquiring minds. A move that was hailed regularly during our many meetings with industry players, both in France and abroad.
But given that we are in an era where current events have become omnipresent, we believe it is time for us to rethink our editorial content so as to remain appealing and be different to what's already being done on the web. Despite our enthusiasm to keep NewsParcs running, we therefore regret to announce the discontinuation of our updates for an unlimited period.
We particularly wish to thank all the people and companies who have supported us over the past 3 years, including our advertisers Sally Corporation, Polin and Jora Vision. We are also grateful to the Themed Entertainment Association, IAAPA Europe and SNELAC for their support and trust.
Also thank you to all our loyal readers for their messages of sympathy and encouragement. You really have been the driving force behind this project!
