Which Growth Drivers Are Shaping the Future of the Rugby Fan Travel Market?
Anticipation suggests that the increasing appeal of sports tourism will propel the rugby fan travel sector forward in the near future. Sports tourism is defined as journeys undertaken mainly for the purpose of spectating, engaging in, or immersing oneself in athletic competitions and associated endeavors; this trend is strengthening because major global competitions draw spectators who journey internationally, frequently prolonging their visits to partake in cultural and recreational pursuits. The market catering to traveling rugby enthusiasts underpins this broader sports tourism phenomenon by providing all-inclusive deals encompassing transit, lodging, match admissions, and regional activities, thereby boosting both ease of travel and participant involvement. As a concrete illustration, data released by World Rugby, the global rugby governing body situated in Ireland, indicated that during the Rugby World Cup held in May 2024, the event welcomed 425,000 international guests who remained for an average duration of ten days, injecting a total expenditure of €1.8 billion (equivalent to USD 1.95 billion) into the economy, which translated into a calculated net economic benefit of €871 million (or USD 945 million) for France, thus confirming that escalating engagement with sports tourism is fueling the rugby fan travel business's expansion.
