London's Olympia exhibition centre will play host to Europe's largest conference and trade show for the attractions industry later this month, when the Euro Attractions Show (EAS) arrives at the venue.

Being held between 27 and 29 September, the event has so far (13 September) secured 333 exhibitors from 60 countries with more than 8.000 visitors from 80 countries expected to visit over the three days.

Mats Wedin, chair of the IAAPA European Advisory Committee, said: "With the largest show floor in the history of EAS, the extensive education programme, the many tours, and the unique special events, EAS is the must-attend event for anyone involved in the attractions industry."

In addition to the trade show, a diversified programme with educational sessions and networking events will be offered. Education seminar topics include marketing, safety, human resources, and waterparks, family entertainment centres, and indoor playgrounds.

Nick Varney, CEO of Merlin Entertainments Group, will be the keynote speaker at the first Euro Attractions Show Leadership Breakfast on Tuesday, 27 September.
