Vancouver’s film industry not only brings production crews to the city but also attracts film tourism. Local businesses can tap into this growing trend by creating experiences that cater to tourists eager to visit famous filming locations.

Film tourism is the practice of visiting places where popular movies or TV shows were filmed. Vancouver, with its diverse settings, has been the backdrop for numerous blockbuster films and hit TV series. Fans often visit the city to see the locations where their favorite scenes were shot, presenting a unique opportunity for local businesses to capitalize on this trend.

One way to leverage film tourism is by offering guided tours of filming locations. Businesses close to well-known sets can partner with tour companies or create their own branded experiences that take visitors to these iconic spots. Restaurants or cafes that have appeared on screen can offer themed menus or “set tours” to attract film buffs.

In addition to tours, businesses can sell film-related merchandise or offer special discounts to tourists visiting filming locations. Tapping into the fandom surrounding specific films or shows filmed in Vancouver can create a niche market for your business.

By aligning your brand with the excitement of film tourism, you can attract new customers and create memorable experiences that resonate with film fans.
