The Euro Attractions Show (EAS) held at the RAI Exhibition and Convention Centre in Amsterdam, Netherlands, draws to a close today (25 September) after a three-day run.
For the first time in the event's 11-year history, the booths sold out, with 441 exhibitors from 36 countries presenting their latest products and projects. A record-breaking 10,750 attendees came to EAS, one-third of them from Holland, exceeding expectations according to an IAAPA spokesperson.
Among the products presented at the show, Cruden showcased its 6 DOF motion simulator, which creates a Formula 1 racing experience; Attraktion debuted its 4D theatre Cinesplash, designed for waterparks and featuring water explosions, fountains and waterfall effects; while Barco was displaying its new Shapeshifter LED-powered modular lighting system, as well as its F50 projector.
There were also some first-time exhibitors at the European edition of the show, including multi-dimension dark ride solution providers XD Movie Box, interactive digital water fountain producers Watergush, and Parkcheck, which presented its mobile task management system.
EAS returns next year, from 6-8 October 2015, in Gothenburg, Sweden. The event will be hosted at Liseberg amusement park, the Swedish Exhibition and Congress and Centre and the Gothia Towers hotel.
