The blooloop 50 Theme Park Influencer List 2022

Now in its fifth year, The blooloop 50 Theme Park Influencer list is again launched in association with our good friends at Convious, the leading eCommerce platform for theme parks and the experience economy.

Whilst the theme park industry is still recovering form the challenges it faced during the pandemic, parks around the world are open and, with many major projects on the horizon, the outlook is good.

The blooloop influencer list will highlight 50 people whose leadership, innovation and creativity are driving the business forward in this challenging time. It will celebrate the individuals who have created the ground breaking initiatives, technologies, designs and projects that are creating the theme parks of tomorrow.

blooloop 50 Influencers can now claim digital badges to add to their LinkedIn profiles. Just email us at events@blooloop.com to find out more.
