Music tourism is the act of visiting a city or town, in order to see a gig or festival. With the presence of the tourist, money is spent and the local economy benefits. This sort of tourism is particularly important to small villages such as Glastonbury, as well as large cities like Glasgow.
Festival and music tourism is defined as travel for the main purpose of attending cultural and/or music festivals. Religious pilgrimages and sporting events are excluded from the definition.
Music tourism is one of the newest typology of tourism. Music tourism can be categorised under pleasure tourism, as it involves travel of people to watch a music concert. Rock music and hip-hop music are the two main genre of music which create music tourism.
The fairly recent Jam band phenomenon is a contemporary example that encourages music tourism. Music festivals such as Bonnaroo are visited by many tourists annually.
The Artful Music Tourist Board is a movement, started to celebrate this, in 2003 by musicians and their friends at The Paradise Bar (now Royal Albert pub) in London, UK. The collective has created an alternative destination and more, since. The foundation is music tourism.
