A campaign with some serious bite. 🦈

Morey’s Piers took home FIRST PLACE in the IAAPA Brass Ring Excellence Awards for Marketing Excellence: Most Creative Outdoor Advertisement for “Jaws Will Drop!” 🏆

With a bold JAWS-inspired design, clever ex*****on, and a nostalgic nod to the debut of new Millennium Flyer coaster trains, the campaign gave locals and coaster enthusiasts a reason to take notice.

And when it comes to turning great work into a strong award submission, the Morey’s Piers team says preparation matters. Their advice when applying: be “concise, but comprehensive,” gather the right information early, clearly show what makes your work stand out, and most importantly, “Don’t wait!”

Your team may already be doing award-worthy work. The IAAPA Brass Ring Awards are an opportunity to put that creativity, strategy, and impact in the spotlight. Apply by October 16. 🔗 https://bit.ly/4fbHl0Z

🏆 Miguel Quintana Pali is taking his place in the IAAPA Hall of Fame.

Through Grupo Xcaret, Quintana Pali transformed the way attractions could connect guests with cultural heritage, placing Mexico’s history, nature, and traditions at the heart of the experience.

His vision challenged the traditional boundaries of what an attraction could be, showing that cultural preservation, environmental conservation, hospitality, and world-class entertainment could thrive together.

Decades later, his approach continues to shape how attractions around the world think about sustainability and authenticity, while challenging traditional definitions of what a theme park and destination can be.

Honor Miguel Quintana Pali at IAAPA LEGENDS: A Hall of Fame Celebratory Affair on Monday, Nov. 16, during IAAPA Expo 2026 in Orlando, FL.
