Spending on leisure, amusement, and theme parks in the Middle East and Africa is expected to reach $609 million (Dh2.23 billion) in 2023, according to a recent report issued by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions. It is projected to grow at a CAGR of around 9.73% in the forecast period of 2022-27.
Under the theme, Integrating Leisure & Innovation for the Next Generation Experiences, the EntertainTech and Leisure Attractions Summit will be the region’s most exclusive platform where we host top decision-makers from the government, private and public sectors across UAE.
