Leisure Development Partners (LDP), a global leader in visitor attractions economics and strategy, has released the third issue of its groundbreaking publication, The Experience Economist, with a dedicated focus on the Americas market.
The Experience Economist: Americas Edition delivers in-depth analysis of the visitor attractions sector, exploring market scale, economic impact, trends, and development opportunities across the region.
Drawing on LDP’s proprietary data and decades of global expertise, the report highlights the volume, value, and impact of theme parks and water parks throughout the Americas.
“The Americas present diverse and evolving opportunities across the attractions industry. In mature markets such as the US and Canada, there is a continued focus on enhancing existing assets while also driving innovation. One notable trend gaining momentum is the rise of immersive and competitive socializing experiences—a concept that has seen considerable success in Europe and is now being adapted and expanded across North American markets.,” said Kathleen LaClair, partner at LDP.
Yael Coifman, senior partner added: “The diversity across Central and South America means that many large markets remain underserved in terms of leisure offerings, presenting significant opportunities for developers. However, it is essential to align investment levels with local income and spending patterns, and to ensure that proposed projects are tailored to reflect the unique needs and nuances of each market.
“At LDP, our global experience across a wide range of markets enables us to apply a global perspective while remaining sensitive to local dynamics, helping clients make informed, market-appropriate development decisions.”
The Experience Economist series is free to access on the LDP website and provides regionally focused editions to support developers, investors, and operators in making informed decisions rooted in global benchmarks and local realities.
