ABOUT THE LABEL “CREATIVE FRIENDLY DESTINATION”
This label, officially granted by the CreativeTourismNetwork® aims to distinguish the destinations that are committed to the creative tourism, while respecting their good practices and creating a value chain throughout the process of implementation and promotion.
F.A.Q.
Not implemented yet?
- Is it possible for a destination to join the Creative Tourism Network® if its creative tourism program is not implemented yet?
Yes! Our Committee first assesses the potential of the destination to develop the creative tourism, on the base of the information filled in the application form. Depending on the level of progress, we will help you or propose you specific services (consultancy, capacity trainings, promotion).
Need a specific website?
- Does the destination need to create a specific website for the creative tourism segment?
No. The DMO generally gathers the creative tourism experiences in a section of the existing tourist board website, specifically named “Creative Tourism …”. This section is linked to the micro-site created by the CTN.
Management guaranteed?
- How does the CTN guarantee the community management?
The CTN undertakes the community management by focusing on each destination’s creative tourism segment. This one is previously analized and the destination is advised on the way of optimizing its impact on the international creative tourism market. However, the community management of each destination’s program is mainly assumed by the CTN.
