The Euro Attractions Show, which kicks off on 6 October
in Gothenburg, is set to wow attendees with its
perfect location and a dose of Swedish star power
The Euro Attractions Show (EAS) will be sprinkled with stardust this October as one of Sweden’s most famous musicians is scheduled to give the keynote speech.
Furthermore, it will be the very first integrated show, taking place in a unique location surrounded by world-class attractions. The event will centre around the Swedish Exhibition and Congress Centre, right next to Liseberg theme park and a stone’s throw from Universeum Science Centre in the heart of Gothenburg. Many of the educational sessions and networking events will be held at Liseberg, offering industry professionals a special experience within an operating amusement park.
ABBA frontman Björn Ulvaeus will be speaking at the Leadership Breakfast, a popular networking event. The former pop star is expected to reveal the secrets of the success of the ABBA brand and how it became an IP in its own right.
As always, EAS is offering a smörgåsbord of seminars and educational opportunities. There’ll be more on the schedule than ever before as well as two new formats. The first is the conference tracks, covering government relations and safety on 6 October and theming, storytelling and design on 7 October. The second new format is Lunch and Learn, hands-on sessions at Liseberg, over a hot lunch.
EAS will offer a holistic, varied programme of seminars, including topics like HR, marketing, leadership and profit generation. Regular fixtures – the IAAPA Safety Institute, FEC Forum and Waterpark Forum – round out the EAS programme for Sweden.
