Your analysis will form the basis of a submission as part of an global review of the visitor attractions being presented at an industry conference. In preparing your case study, you need to focus on a visitor attraction of your choice, and in doing so you will need to undertake research from academic journals, books, industry sources and the media about your chosen visitor attraction. The case study MUST address the following five (5) areas: 1. Define the selected visitor attraction. 2. Identify the key features and explain how these influence and support visitor awareness. 3. Evaluate the marketing tools (inclusive of social media) used to promote the visitor attraction. 4. Assess the sustainability programs used at the visitor attraction and how these (if any) have impacted tourist visitation; and, 5. In what way does your selected visitor attraction compare to other tourist attractions in terms of visitor interest? Does your selected visitor attraction have an ‘x-factor’ that sets it apart from other attractions? In answering this question, you may compare your selected visitor attraction with other attractions placed either locally and/or globally. 1,200 w all togetherImage transcription textThe Future of Visitor Attractions Introduction This chapterexplores the future of visitor attractions by using the examples oftheme parks and world—renowned tourist attractions … Show more… Show moreImage transcription text56 International Tourism Futures a different space.
