About This Event

Mark your calendar: IAAPA Expo Asia 2027, the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions Expo, lands in Osaka, Japan from 28 June 2027 to 1 July 2027, ready to bring the field together once more. Trade professionals treat it as essential groundwork: a single trip that replaces months of scattered supplier visits. Running every year, it has settled into a rhythm the sector plans its year around. International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions organises the event, ensuring a polished experience from registration to closing day. This year's edition calls INTEX Osaka home.

Whether your interest is amusement parks or wider sourcing, the floor covers Amusement Parks, Visitor Attractions, Theme Parks, Family Entertainment Centers, Water Parks, Entertainment Industry and Entertainment, Media & Culture in depth. The format is built around sourcing and networking, with dedicated space to hold meetings and compare offerings side by side.
