Notes

2020: Cancelled: 'IAAPA Expo 2020 in Orlando Cancelled. IAAPA Expo serves as the global marketplace for the attractions industry. Together with input from members, exhibitors, the IAAPA Board of Directors, and our team, we have decided to cancel IAAPA Expo 2020 due to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19. While we are disappointed we are unable to meet this year, we are already looking ahead to IAAPA Expo 2021 in Orlando.' Message from the President and CEO: 'IAAPA Expo 2020 has been cancelled due to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19. The continuing barriers to international and domestic travel helped lead to this decision.' 'While IAAPA Expo 2020 won't happen in person, IAAPA is presenting the lineup of educational speakers in a new IAAPA Expo: Virtual Education Conference. Over 25 sessions planned for IAAPA Expo move online' (Ex. SEC-25-GM-044, as captured Oct. 1, 2020).
