Abstract

Il turismo, come mezzo sostenibile di sviluppo economico, suscita notevole interesse in quei territori che cercano di sfruttare al meglio le loro possibilità di sviluppo. Il Film-induced tourism ha visto una crescita apprezzabile e rappresenta una notevole opportunità per molte comunità di utilizzare nelle pellicole cinematografiche o nei film per la televisione delle location per attirare flussi di visitatori. Queste opportunità permettono agli organizzatori di eventi di comprendere meglio i bisogni e i desideri dei loro partecipanti e prepararsi al meglio per soddisfarli. Questo articolo riporta un’analisi effettuata sui partecipanti ad un evento che celebra il 20° anniversario delle riprese del popolare film americano "Le ali della libertà" e ne analizza le caratteristiche, i risultati desiderati e i fattori motivanti.
