Applause Awards Tickets

Applause Awards stands as the amusement and attractions industry’s oldest international honor. Established in 1980 by Liseberg in Sweden, the award recognizes outstanding contributions to guest experience across amusement parks, water parks, zoos, resorts, and related attractions. Since 2024, the award has transitioned to an annual cadence and broadened its scope, reflecting the diverse landscape of modern entertainment. The iconic bronze trophy—two hands mid-applause, crafted by Astri Bergman Taube—symbolizes recognition from industry peers and guests alike. Winners are announced at IAAPA Honors events, with the 2025 recipient being Universal Studios Japan.
