Drivers and Restraints:
Growing Influx of Domestic and International Tourists to Propel Market Growth
The global tourism industry is witnessing a significant surge in international tourists seeking leisure and unique experiences. According to the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO), more than 975 million tourists made international travel between January and September 2023, representing a 38% increase compared to the same period in 2022. The growth is further fueled by the increasing number of domestic tourists and family-oriented short vacations. Theme parks with local cultural themes and attractions are particularly popular among domestic tourists seeking experiences that reflect their cultural heritage. Additionally, domestic tourists are drawn to the parks that host special events, festivals, and seasonal offers throughout the year.
However, maintenance of these attractions and adherence to safety standards necessitate significant financial investment and ongoing training and retention efforts. This can pose a financial burden, particularly for new market entrants, thereby hindering the market’s growth.
