International visitors from 64 countries accounted for 45.84% of total attendance (as opposed to 41.14% for July 2013). Europeans - Belgians, English and Dutch at the top of the list - were well represented at 32.9%. Asians made up 5.9%, visitors from the Americas comprised 2.8% and those from the Middle East encompassed 2.5%.

Outside of Europe, the three countries with the largest presences were Japan, the United States and South Korea. It’s noteworthy that Monday, the last day of the show, was Playtime’s busiest day, some exhibitors lamenting a somewhat slow start.

The next edition of Playtime Paris will take place from January 31 to February 2, 2015.
