“…In other words, tourists who have experienced local festival storytelling build positive emotions according to the authenticity of the local festival, thereby increasing revisit intentions, suggesting that storytelling can be effective in forming local brand assets through local festivals. More specifically, from the tourism management perspective, they may need to take an experience-centric approach by providing tourists with a positive tourism experience via the appropriate use of storytelling ( Ritchie et al, 2011 ; Bec et al, 2019 ; Cervera-Taulet et al, 2019 ; Oshriyeh and Capriello, 2022 ) which drive them to revisit the regions in the future.…”

Storytelling is getting increasing attention as one of the effective strategies for revitalizing the local festivals and even regional economies. Yet, the mechanisms through how storytelling helps the success of local festivals are still relatively less known. Using the data from 322 individuals who participated in local festivals using storytelling, our results showed that local festival storytelling is positively related to tourists’ revisit intention. Furthermore, the positive relationship between local festival storytelling and tourists’ revisit intention was serially mediated by authenticity and positive emotion. Theoretical and practical implications are discussed.

“…Film-induced tourism profits from attracting tourists inspired by movies, through merchandising of tourist packages. Brown (2007) defines the interrelation between movies and attractions of theme parks as “the cinema of attractions.” Movies means of conveying stories and influencing humans and one of the most important factors that motivate people to travel to cities and their tourist attractions (Oshriyeh and Capriello, 2022). Most develop characters like Mickey Mouse, Snow Beauty and Beast and Spiderman are part of theme park’s rides to attract visitors to visit film theme parks.…”

“…Film-induced tourism is defined by Hudson and Ritchie (2006) as a tourist visit to a destination or attraction due to the destination being featured on television, video, digital video disc or the cinema screen (Marafa et al , 2022). The concept of movie-induced tourism has received popular support (Mori, 2022; Zhou et al , 2023), the influence of movies in countries (Liu et al , 2020), how influences movie-induced tourism between different cultures to attract more tourists and visitors (Michael et al , 2020), the influence of cartoon movies on children’s gender (Gökçearslan, 2010), how film-induced tourism can improve tourist’s satisfaction and experience, because movies are one of the most important factors that motivate people to travel to a destination (Oshriyeh and Capriello, 2022), or even as a marketing tool and brand image for tourist destinations (Nakayama, 2022). Nostalgia is also effective in promoting theme parks associated with animations and animated characters to increase the number of visitors (Oh and Kim, 2020).…”

Purpose The aim of this paper is to analyze the interrelationship between film-induced tourism and visits to theme parks by tourists and examine the most viewed movies worldwide (2010–2022) which are related with theme parks and their attractions. Design/methodology/approach The methodology used in this study is a set of qualitative and quantitative indicators for measuring the most visited theme parks worldwide and the most viewed movies that have allowed to answer the research questions. Findings This research provides a new contribution to tourism and entertainment industries. Results have shown that film-induced tourism can be the perfect marketing tool to attract more tourists to theme parks through movies and their real or fictional characters represented in films such as Marvel, Minions, Avatar, Harry Potter and Disney, amongst many others. These famous characters are part of theme park’s rides to attract tourists to visit film theme parks These rides allow users to travel in a fantasy experience and interact with film characters of cartoons or fictions. There is a high correlation between film-induced tourism and theme parks’ attractions. Film-induced tourism provides great benefits to the society, theme parks, cinemas and tourist destinations. Indeed, movies help to increase the number of visitors to theme parks. In 2019, 215 million people visited the top 20 theme parks worldwide analyzed in this study, this figure is quite lucrative to entertainment and tourism sectors, local and regional economies where these theme parks are localized. Originality/value This study presents the importance of theme parks at tourist destinations because theme parks are an extension of movies, thus is, the end of the physical perfect experience at theme parks which began in a movie seat or on your TV/videogame/PC screens.

“…The synergy of film and tourism industries has been the subject of much research, focusing on the growth of tourism in the location a film is filmed and the ways it promotes possible destination images [1][2][3][4], "including awareness, motivations, expectations, familiarity and complex images" [5]. By creating associations with the location and the story [5], films motivate potential tourists to visit the lands, re-experience the depicted scenes and/or personalize the film seen.…”

The synergy of film and tourism industries has been the subject of much research, focusing on the ways a film can promote possible destination images, adding to the growth of tourism in the location the film is filmed. By creating associations with the location and the story, films motivate potential tourists to visit the lands, re-experience the depicted scenes and/or personalize the film seen. Greece is one of the countries that has appeared in many Hollywood film productions. From The Boy on a Dolphin (1957) to Mamma Mia 3 (2023), research shows an increase in visitor numbers at the filmed locations. The paper uses content analysis in 11 films filmed in Greece, in order to examine the visual mechanisms used to highlight the signs that denote Greekness. The paper shows that film productions shot in Greek locations—seen as important destination marketing tools—single out specific destination images and promote specific Greek signs—mostly familiar and recognizable “markers”.
