EUROPEAN STAR AWARD 2019 We are inviting all Top 10 Parks to celebrate their success together with friends and manufacturers. All Top 5 Winners are receiving looping sculptures – which are ex clusively hand-made from real Bohemian Crystal. INTRODUCTION A very warm-hearted "Bienvenue" to this year’s European Star Award and to the IAAPA Expo Europe in Paris. We are very proud that the independent and non-profit European Star Award is well established. This year we are celebrating the 8 th edition in a row, and during this period the award has become Europe's most important award for the leisure industry. In fact, this award is dedicated explicitly to European theme parks, bringing attention to entrepreneurial courage and innovations. In 14 categories, winners were voted by an international team of 44 experts. In each category, members of the trade jury were able to vote for their personal favourites. Choices could be made from theme parks and water parks throughout Europe including Russia and Turkey, with the minimum criteria of at least one ride or slide attraction in operation. An important note regarding this year’s results: A number of attractions were opened very late. In some instances, too late to be able to be taken into account before the end of voting. Unfortunately, as a result some attractions are not reqresented in the Top 10. For example the coaster innovation “Desmo Race” at Mirabilandia. Or the world’s tallest hybrid coaster “Zadra” at Energylandia, which you can see on this year’s cover. The European Star Award remains a non-profit organization. But to keep this independent award alive, we requested supporting adverts only after the voting was completed. However, we would like to give thanks our this year's sponsors – The Coca-Cola Company and Popcorn Affairs. This year the European Star Award 2019 is presented at one of Europe’s best theme parks: Parc Astérix. We would like to say thank you to Compagnie des Alpes, in particular to Sébastien Retailleau, Benoit Spriet and Francois Fassier for their support in making it possible to have the event take place at their beautiful park. We are pleased to congratulate all Top 10 winners, and we wish all visitors to the IAAPA Expo Europe a great time in Paris, together with many stimulating inspirations for future attractions!
