Let's follow the incentive: who really benefits from the idea that local events are the cornerstone of travel planning?
For many families with a limited budget, like those in my class, choosing a destination is primarily a matter of cost and availability during school holidays.
Local events can be a plus, but they are rarely the main motivation.
For example, for a family just looking to relax for a week camping in Saint-Donat, the existence of a music festival is secondary to the ability to afford family vacations and unplugging.
It's the difference between a promotional article and the concrete reality of family planning.
