The 2025 set-jetting hotlist: 8 locations where film tourism is about to boom | News Channel 3-12
- DataPulse Research identified eight locations poised to become major set-jetting destinations in 2025, based on recent films and series worldwide.
- This trend has grown significantly over decades because locations must appear in iconic productions embraced by millennials or Gen Z and be accessible to mass tourism.

- According to data, visits to the website rose by 425% and inquiries about availability increased by 386% at the Four Seasons property in Sicily, which experienced full occupancy for half a year following the airing of Season 2.
- While destinations gain tourism boosts, a sustained increase is not guaranteed; long-term success depends on embracing the media connection, as seen with New Zealand and Scotland, but not Australia.
