Film Festival Tourism part IIAs a response to the several inquiries that I have received, this article provides additional information following my December 15 background essay on the emerging field of film festival tourism. As noted before, film festival tourism is part of the rapidly expanding cultural tourism industry that serves a fairly affluent and knowledgeable audience. Conversely, local or national departments of tourism have realized that attracting cultural film tourists generates additional income for the local and regional economy, an assumption born out by several case studies. These departments are listed among the financial sponsors of foreign and domestic film festivals. Apart from those mentioned in my December article, the following film festivals are co-funded out of the tourism budgets: Cayman Islands IFF; Singapore IFF; Ankara IFF; Istanbul IFF; Tirana Cinema Short FF; Zanzibar IFF, actually branding itself as an "East Africa Cultural Tourism Product"; and, in North America, Edmonton IFF, The Osborne Classic FF, and the Santa Fe FF. |
