A Foolish Take: Disney's Theme Park Attendance Dips as Universal Gains Ground
Walt Disney (NYSE: DIS), the biggest theme park operator in the world, owns 12 parks across three continents. That's why it wasn't surprising when the Themed Entertainment Association (TEA) and Aecom's latest report revealed that Disney owned four of the five most visited parks in the world.
However, attendance at Disney's top parks has actually declined as turnstile clicks at Comcast's (NASDAQ: CMCSA) Universal theme parks rose. Attendance improved at all four Universal properties listed in the top 25 parks: Universal Studios Japan, Universal Studios Florida, Islands of Adventure, and Universal Studios Hollywood.
