What is Cultural Tourism? Cultural Tourism is where the visitor wants to understand and appreciate the essential character of a place and its culture as a whole, including its:• arts and architecture • cultural diversity • festivals and events • food, wine and local produce • history and archeology • landscape • people and their lifestyle • social, economic and political structures Cultural Tourism is "travel for essentially cultural motivations, including education tours, performing arts, events, festivals, pilgrimages, visits to sites and monuments, and the study of nature, folklore and art." - World Tourism Organisation Cultural Tourism is a special interest or niche area of the global tourism industry and market and one that is growing at a greater rate than mass tourism. The growth is in both visitors participating and in the number of people employed each year. We also have a suite of programs in Festival and Event Design Management, Trade Promotion Management and Interpretation leading to Graduate Certificate, Graduate Diploma and Masters.
