DEAL Live by blooloop: An Unmissable New Conference in Dubai April 18th

The Dubai Entertainment Amusement & Leisure Show (DEAL) and blooloop are delighted to announce a new partnership to create an exciting new conference, DEAL Live by blooloop, on April 18th 2016.

DEAL, the largest trade show for the entertainment, amusement and leisure industries in the MEA, is teaming up with blooloop, the attraction industry’s leading website and event organiser, to create a new conference for the region.

With top speakers and fantastic networking, DEAL Live by blooloop promises to be an unmissable new fixture in the calendar for attractions professionals.

Sharif Rahman, CEO of International Expo Consults and organisers of the DEAL 2016 show stated that, “We decided to associate with blooloop to add further value to the stakeholders of the themeparks and amusement industry while they visit our show. We have been supporting the industry for over two decades and we now wanted to provide the trade visitors more insights into the industry through this conference. It is important to share knowledge and expertise within the same platform to address the needs of the industry and grow this sector further.

"We are currently living in interesting times where there are several new family entertainment zones and also theme parks being developed not only in Dubai but also the greater Middle East and Africa region. Therefore, it is important for us to also address the challenges faced by the industry and also arrive at the right solutions to solve them. This conference will enable us to do that and we are delighted to take this cause ahead with industry experts such as blooloop.”

Charles Read, MD blooloop says, “We are delighted to be working with DEAL. DEAL is undoubtedly the premier exhibition in MEA, with a strong reputation for facilitating networking amongst all stakeholders in the attractions industry. With unparalleled local knowledge they are our natural partners to create what we believe will be a compelling programme for anyone seeking to enter or expand their business in the region.”
