According to a report by Collinson Group, live-events tourism is booming, especially with sports tourism leading the charge. It’s already valued at a massive USD 564.7 billion and is expected to grow to USD 1.33 trillion by 2032. And music tourism? It’s set to more than double, contributing over USD 13.8 billion.

Young people are part of this wave, and now, with the AirAsia Move app, any traveler can effortlessly be a part of iconic events anywhere in ASEAN.

Hassan Choudhury, CEO of Movetix, put it perfectly: “We are in very exciting times, especially driven by the region’s young, dynamic population with increasing disposable income who are part of a growing global fanbase who will spend to travel to iconic live events such as sports and concerts.”

“With the integration of Ticketmelon’s event listings into AirAsia Move, travelers will have unprecedented access to a wide range of concerts, festivals, and events, making it more convenient than ever to plan their entire trip in one place,” Choudhury added.

So for anyone looking to plan a weekend music festival getaway or organize a trip for the next big sports event, this partnership opens up a world of possibilities. The future of travel and event booking is here—let’s move!
