Moscow played host to the sixth Eurasian Amusement Parks and Attractions Expo (EAAPA) on February 12-14, with the show reflecting strong growth in the Russian amusements sector.

The show used a new segmentation system to cater to the increasingly large number of the market niches. The layout of different expositions in the pavilions was arranged in a way to help the visitors easily navigate through the show.

"The Russian entertainment industry is moving forward by leaps and bounds," the organisers of EAAPA said. "This is evidenced by the planned opening of Europe's first theme parks branded by the American studio DreamWorks Animation.

"EAAPA 2013 expo created favourable conditions for the development of mutually beneficial cooperation between domestic and foreign manufacturers of park and entertainment equipment and services, as well as for the exchange of best practices and innovative projects in the field."
