This new award is designed to honour and recognise outstanding booth presentations at the trade show. This year’s event featured a record-breaking 13,000 square metre trade show floor, the largest in the show’s history. More than 400 companies exhibited this year, from 30 different countries from around the globe. A huge variety of technologies, products and services were on display, such as state-of-the-art rides, motion simulators, virtual reality, water attractions, video and skill games, as well as the latest in theming and design, technology applications, food-and-beverage innovations, and more.

Outstanding presentations

The winners were selected by a panel of judges. The panel consisted of IAAPA industry facility members, who chose the winners based on three categories of booth size. These were 9-27 square metres, 36-72 square metres, and 81 square metres and over. During the judge’s evaluation, the booths were rated on design, branding, staffing and overall appeal.
