Global Amusements Market Report 2021: Market is Expected to Reach $763.88 Billion in 2025 – Long-term Forecast to 2030

The “Amusements Global Market Report 2021: COVID-19 Impact and Recovery to 2030” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The global amusements market is expected to grow from $517.44 billion in 2020 to $579.92 billion in 2021 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.1%.
Amusements Global Market Report 2021: COVID-19 Impact and Recovery to 2030 provides the strategists, marketers and senior management with the critical information they need to assess the global amusements market as it emerges from the COVID-19 shut down.
Major companies in the amusements market include The Walt Disney Company; Las Vegas Sands Corp; Universal Studios Inc; MGM Resorts and Merlin Entertainment Group.
The growth is mainly due to the companies rearranging their operations and recovering from the COVID-19 impact, which had earlier led to restrictive containment measures involving social distancing, remote working, and the closure of commercial activities that resulted in operational challenges.
The market is expected to reach $763.88 billion in 2025 at a CAGR of 7%.
The amusements market consists of sales of amusements services such as amusement parks entertainments and gambling services and related goods by entities (organizations, sole traders and partnerships) that operate amusements facilities such as theme parks, water parks, amusement arcades, casinos, and sports betting facilities. The amusements market is segmented into amusement parks and gambling.
Asia Pacific was the largest region in the global amusements market, accounting for 37% of the market in 2020. North America was the second largest region accounting for 29% of the global amusements market. Middle East was the smallest region in the global amusements market.
Amusement parks are increasingly using virtual and augmented reality technology to provide an immersive experience to customers. Virtual reality is a 3D, computer generated environment which can interact with a person, whereas augmented reality turns an environment into a digital interface by placing virtual objects in the real world. Amusement parks are implementing this technology in rides and theater-based attractions.
For instance, Plopsaland De Panne in De Panne, Belgium has a new virtual reality wooden roller coaster called Heidi The Ride, which can reach speeds of more than 43mph. Amusement park SeaWorld has started operating a new Kraken Virtual Reality Roller Coaster in Orlando. The Weave Breaker coaster brings the reality of jet skiing in an amusement park. Universal Studios have The Walking Dead mazes with augmented reality elements.
The outbreak of Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) has acted as a massive restraint on the amusements market in 2020 as governments globally imposed lockdowns and restricted domestic and international travel limiting the need for services offered by these establishments.
Steps by national governments to contain the transmission have resulted in closure of recreational facilities such as amusement parks, museums and casinos with countries entering a state of ‘lock down’ and the outbreak is expected to continue to have a negative impact on businesses throughout 2020 and into 2021. However, it is expected that the amusements market will recover from the shock across the forecast period as it is a ‘black swan’ event and not related to ongoing or fundamental weaknesses in the market or the global economy.
Increasing use of social media and access to mass media is positively influencing the amusements market. Visitors in amusements facilities such as amusement parks like sharing their experiences, photographs and videos on social media platforms which helps other people know the experiences offered by the amusement parks.

SPRIBE, the pioneering software provider behind the world’s number one crash game, Aviator, has added cricket legend Suresh Raina to its growing roster of brand ambassadors.
Raina is a former Indian international cricketer known for his explosive batting, sharp fielding and inspiring team leadership.
He was a key player in India’s 2011 ICC Cricket World Cup victory and was also a star player for the Chennai Super Kings, helping the team secure multiple Indian Premier League titles.
His accolades don’t stop there. Raina was the first Indian to score a T20I century and remains one of League’s top run-scorers to this day.
Outside of cricket, he’s a successful entrepreneur, philanthropist and influential public figure.
As an Aviator brand ambassador, Raina will promote the game to his fans across various channels and through a range of campaigns over the coming 12 months.
He joins other Aviator brand ambassadors such as UFC superstars like Tom Aspinall, Alex Pereira, Johnny Walker and Merab Dvalishvili.
Aviator is the original crash game with more than 42 million active players a month placing upwards of 350,000 bets per minute across more than 5,500 online casino sites.
David Natroshvili, Founder & CEO at SPRIBE, said: “We are hitting for six with the partnership with Suresh, one of the most iconic and celebrated cricketers in India.
“Suresh was renowned for his explosive batting and thrilling style of play, and this makes him the perfect person to help us drive awareness of Aviator among cricket and sports fans in India.
“Aviator is the original crash game and players love the high-risk/high-reward gameplay it provides, and we are really looking forward to rolling out campaigns featuring Suresh that show this.”
Suresh Raina, former Indian cricketer and now Aviator ambassador, added: “Playing Aviator is the closest I have come to the thrill of playing professional cricket and I couldn’t be happier to help drive awareness of the game among my fans and followers.
“Aviator is action-packed with tons of social interaction and plenty of big win potential. Players have control over the outcome as they get to decide when to cash out – for those that can hold their nerve the longest, the biggest prizes await.
“SPRIBE has some great campaigns planned for the months ahead and I look forward to working with the team to help Aviator really take flight among cricket fans in India and beyond.”
