November 21, 2025 – Orange County Convention Center

The 2025 Symposium will take place on Orlando, FL on November 21, 2025, on the last day of the IAAPA Expo. Hosting this symposium during IAAPA Expo enables participating academics to enhance their research, knowledge transfer, and exchange through access to over 1,000 exhibitors of products and services representing the state of the art of the attractions industry and opportunities for networking with some of the 30,000 industry operators, manufacturers, and suppliers who attend IAAPA Expo. The schedule will also permit interested industry members to attend the TEAAS academic symposium program. Our symposium is organized by the TEAAS with the support of the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions (IAAPA). The symposium will include oral presentations of selected research papers (conventional 15-minute academic presentations), structured networking sessions, and an extended lunchtime research poster session.
