Theme park sustainability leaders to speak at greenloop, April 19/20

News
theme park speakers at greenloop sustainability in visitor attractions conference

Group tickets for operators and institutions just £150 for up to 10 attendees.


After a successful launch last year, greenloop, the only conference for sustainability professionals across the visitor attractions sector, is back 19-20 April. Help us mark Earth Week by joining our stellar line up of sustainability leaders from the world’s top theme parks and attractions for two days of inspirational talks, practical advice and networking.

This is a not-to-be-missed event for anyone working in sustainability in theme parks, museums, zoos, aquariums and other visitor attractions.

When it comes to solving really big challenges, like how do we build sustainable theme parks, resorts and cruise ships around the world, it takes all of us and all of these different industries coming together.

And that’s what’s great about greenloop … our collaboration is key to really think about how we build sustainable themed entertainment experiences.

Theme park sustainability leaders

Sustainability leaders from theme parks worldwide will speak about hot topics and share strategies and insights, including:

  • Emily Dow, Design Studio Executive, Walt Disney Imagineering, and Caitlin Krasovic, Senior Architect, Walt Disney Imagineering, will talk about how Walt Disney Imagineering is putting environmental goals into action
  • Choni Fernandez Veciana, Director: Central Services and Sustainability, PortAventura, will discuss how the world’s first carbon neutral theme park is taking the next steps towards Science Based Targets
  • Maria Gimbro, Purchasing/Procurement Specialist, Liseberg will be setting out how supplier carbon emissions are increasingly being evaluated by theme parks
  • Dare Ilori, Group Head of Sustainability, Merlin Entertainments, will talk about how to get your Board onboard and making the business case for sustainability with Merlin
  • Niall Murphy, Senior Manager MEP, Miral will discuss Miral’s sustainability journey

In addition we have Miguel Naranjo, Programme Officer and Climate Neutral Now Lead at the United Nations Climate Change Secretariat, who will set out the practical help available from the UN for businesses seeking to become carbon neutral.

Some of our hot topics include NFTs, guest travel, sustainable palm oil, blue tech incubators, supplier checklists and gift shops.

Sharing sustainability insights across the visitor attractions sector

greenloop leverages Blooloop’s worldwide network of professionals in theme parks, museums, zoos, aquariums and more, to deliver a truly cross sector event. Attendees will be able to learn from attractions leaders discussing hot topics and giving actionable advice to help attendees in their sustainability journeys.

Our online event platform uses smart networking tools to match attendees with similar interests, so that they can quickly make useful contacts.

greenloop is a must-attend event, crossing boundaries to bring together really thought-provoking insights and ideas around the way visitor attractions can not only minimise their environmental impact on the planet, but also act as catalysts for positive change.

I cannot think of another event which goes near greenloop as a concentrated dollop of practical green inspiration – a must-attend for several of our team.

Dominic Hare, CEO Blenheim
