Season Extension

A longer season that works

An additional month of operation needs transport access, staff, open businesses and people who want to travel at that time. The work begins with understanding demand and the constraints of each destination.

We explore how accommodation, food, culture, business meetings and outdoor activities can work together. The aim is a complete visitor offer that remains available when the guest arrives.

What we explore

• Markets and reasons to travel in each season
• Coordinating transport with the availability of local services
• Operating costs and staffing needs outside peak periods
• Coordinating event calendars and shared visitor offers

Testing within a defined period

A specific period and a selected audience provide a stronger basis for assessment. We examine how such a trial is designed, who takes part and what the destination needs to learn before expanding the initiative.
