More than 275 companies are set to exhibit at the 2014 edition of the Asian Attractions Expo (AAE), which takes place at the China National Convention Centre in Beijing on June 17-20.

The event – known as Asia's premier trade show and conference for the attractions industry – will bring more than 5,000 professionals to the 8,000sq.m show floor.

The attractions industry is rapidly growing in the Asia-Pacific region, as several large new resorts, theme parks, waterparks and other attractions are in development. As the industry grows, AAE is growing with it.

More than 3,500 buyers from 60 countries will explore the trade show floor for new, state-of-the-art products and services including amusement and theme park development and design, rides, motion simulators, water attractions, video and skill games, theming, technology, food and beverage and more.  

"The record amount of floor space sold at Asian Attractions Expo 2014 is a sign of the unprecedented growth in the region," said IAAPA president and CEO Paul Noland.

"As new attractions continue to launch in China, India, Southeast Asia, and throughout the region, the Asian Attractions Expo has become a 'can't-miss' international event for industry professionals."
