2024 Trends Unveiled: Future of Attractions Industry


Webinar Description

Join Robbie Jones from Katapult Themed Attractions & Experience Design as he explores the biggest trends shaping the future of the attractions industry in 2024. This insightful webinar breaks down key consumer behaviors and emerging themes that will impact guest experiences, spending habits, and industry innovation.

Key topics include:

  • The Joy Economy – Consumers are prioritizing happiness in their purchases while making their money stretch further.
  • Zero Consumers – Guests are cutting daily expenses to save for big experiences.
  • Own to Loan – A shift back to ownership in a world dominated by rentals.

Robbie will also review five major trends shaping 2024:

  1. Slow and Selfish – The rise of wellness tourism and the need to create spaces for guests to relax and savor experiences.
  2. Be Spontaneous – A surge in last-minute planning and the demand for more flexible, unstructured guest experiences.
  3. Quality Feasting – The push for higher-quality dining, local ingredients, and immersive food experiences.
  4. History – A renewed appreciation for nostalgia, storytelling, and reimagining old content in fresh ways.
  5. The Human Touch – A growing desire for face-to-face interactions and live, actor-led experiences over screen-based attractions.

Additionally, the webinar will highlight up-and-coming trends like the resurgence of the tween market and the shift toward maximalism in consumer habits. With attractions serving as a refuge in an unpredictable world, this session will help industry leaders understand how to craft more meaningful, spontaneous, and immersive experiences for guests.

Don’t miss this opportunity to stay ahead of the curve in 2024!
