Participate in the leading awards scheme for the EMEA region by submitting your entries and nominations online at www.parkworldexcellenceawards.com. The Park World Excellence Awards will take place LIVE in London on Wednesday 14 September.

Launched in 2018, the Park World Excellence Awards has firmly established itself as the leading industry awards scheme for the EMEA region. Sponsored by accesso, Digital Centre and Hologate the 2022 event is now open for entries and nominations.

Park World Editor Becci Knowles explains; “Every category is open to every member of the industry. If you are a theme park, amusement park, water park or family/indoor entertainment centre in the EMEA region, go ahead and enter the category that best describes your facility.

“If you are an operator and have a ride, attraction, live event or product that opened or became available (or is going to open or become available) between 1 September 2021 – 10 July 2022, enter that too. If you have several, why not give yourself the very best chance of achieving that all important Park World stamp of excellence by entering them all?

“Manufacturers, suppliers and operators are ALL encouraged to enter their latest projects and products – don’t wait for one of your partners to fill out the entry form – the more information we have, the better equipped the judges will be to make the right decision when we put all that information in front of them.”

“And remember, if as individual you have played a major role in helping your operation to achieve huge success and made an impact in the industry over the past year, tell us– you might just be our Park World Excellence Awards 2022 Industry Icon Operator or Industry Icon Supplier.

“Participation in the Park World Excellence Awards reaches far beyond entering. Helps us to identify and celebrate excellence by nominating the operators, manufacturers and suppliers you work with for Park World Excellence Awards too. The same online form can be used to achieve all of this and there really is no better way to say, “thank you”!

Park World publisher, Paul Ryder explains: “With this year’s event taking place LIVE in London and screened on the Park World Excellence Awards website, there has never been a better time to align your brand with the Excellence that the Park World Excellence Awards stands for. Global manufacturers and suppliers involved in projects in the EMEA region will have their chance to shine, along with the facilities that are home to them, with outstanding individuals given their moment in the limelight too. The eyes of the world will be on this event in September and I for one can’t wait to see who comes out on top.”
