Building Community Beyond the
Show Floor
THE ATTRACTIONS INDUSTRY HAS ALWAYS BEEN ABOUT CONNECTING. Ideas are exchanged between
sessions, partnerships begin on show floors, and careers are shaped through conversations with people
who understand the unique opportunities and challenges of this business. IAAPA Communities extend that
connection beyond Expos and events, giving members a place to stay engaged 365 days a year.
Built for members, by members, these communities create space for deeper conversation, peer support, and
shared learning across specific areas of the industry. From sustainability and family entertainment to young
professionals, women in the industry, manufacturers and suppliers, and museums and science centers, each
community helps members find people who share their interests, goals, and experiences.
IAAPA Communities are designed to strengthen belonging within the global attractions industry, helping
members find their tribe and build relationships that continue long after an event ends.
