Sports travel is becoming more than simply attending a game or competition. Travelers are increasingly planning trips around marathons, fitness competitions, tournaments, and other sporting events.
Instead of flying in only for the event, many extend the trip to explore the destination before or afterward.
This combines recreation, fitness, sightseeing, and social experiences in one trip. The trend is also creating new opportunities for hotels, restaurants, and local businesses near major events.
For people who already enjoy sports, a competition can become the reason to discover an entirely new place.
