This statistic illustrates the results of a 2017 survey that asked participants in the United Kingdom if they had ever visited a film or TV location whilst on holiday/vacation abroad and how much this influenced (or would influence) their decision to travel to a specific destination. Of respondents, 39 percent said they had visited a film/TV location whilst on holiday abroad, but only seven percent said it was the main reason for their visit. Most respondents advised that it had no influence on their destination choice.
Have you ever visited a film or TV location whilst on a holiday/vacation abroad?*
