In keeping with IAAPA Attractions Expo 2014's theme of 'Big Starts Here', IAAPA officials have expanded the list of networking opportunities.

Taking place at the Magic Kingdom Park at Walt Disney World Resort on November 17, the 'IAAPA Connects' event will connect industry colleagues and facilitate new business relationships.

Attendees will enjoy a number of attractions at New Fantasyland, including the Seven Dwarfs Mine Train roller coaster and Dumbo the Flying Elephant. The evening will also feature Disney's night-time spectacular, Celebrate the Magic.

"So much of the attractions industry is experiential and IAAPA Connects allows expo participants to start the week by joining colleagues to experience Disney's latest innovations firsthand," said IAAPA president and CEO, Paul Noland.

"As everyone begins to register for IAAPA Attractions Expo, I encourage them to plan accordingly and arrive in time to participate in this can't-miss event."

IAAPA Attractions Expo 2014 is the premier conference and trade show for the global amusement park and attractions industry.

The show will take place in Orlando, Florida, and draw more than 27,000 industry professionals from more than 90 countries to the Orange County Convention Centre from on November 17-21.
