The launch of GCC’s Future Play and Playspaces conference, set to take place in Dubai on April 17-18, has been announced by CrowdReviews.com and ACM Events.
The event is an opportunity for those developing, designing, building and equipping indoor and outdoor play facilities across the GCC region to understand the range of issues key to the sector’s development. New projects and initiatives will be discussed, complex regulatory matters explained and innovative solutions showcased.
The market for family entertainment is booming in the GCC. Abu Dhabi invested $35m in developing parks and playgrounds in 2016 and it is expected that Dubai’s FEC market will intensify in the next three years to reflect the Emirates’ projected population of 3.4 million by 2020.
Major investment into mall construction is also planned for 2017, including Ishbiliyah City Centre in Saudi Arabia, Mall of Oman, Phoenix Mall in UAE and Ibn Battuta Mall Expansion.
