With the second Visitor Attraction Expo taking place at ExCel London on 12-14 January 2016, Organisers will be building upon the successes of the inaugural event. Promoted by BALPPA with the support of BACTA, VAE 2016 is aimed at operators of indoor and adventure play, attractions, piers, zoos, parks and FECs.
Organiser Karen Cooke has revealed a sharp increase in enquiries from potential exhibitors, with recent signings including Polar Krush, GFT Retail, Top Tix and Mich Playground.
The Visitor Attraction Expo will again take place alongside EAG International, with visitors encouraged to move freely between the two shows. The combined events will showcase products from more than 300 represented companies, not to mention several European product launches.
An educational and seminar programme organised by BALPPA and a host of networking opportunities will all contribute to making VAE an unmissable event
The VAE website is now open for registration and visitors are urged to lay their travel plans well in advance. Karen Cooke explains: “January is peak time at ExCel, with nearby hotels and restaurants under pressure. The London Boat Show will also be coinciding with VAE and EAG International. We would recommend that visitors register and make their travel plans as soon as possible, to avoid unnecessary costs and disappointment,” urged Karen.
Registration is via the show’s website: www.attractionsexpo.co.uk along with access to some competitive hotel rates and useful travel advice.
