Abstract

Interregional tourism is a form of tourism that fosters connections and development between regions, utilizing their geographical, cultural, and resource advantages to create diverse tourism products, increase competitive advantage, and bring benefits to participants. This article examines the influence of travel motivation and promotion activities on tourists' intention to participate in interregional tourism. Using structural equation modeling on 527 valid responses from a structured questionnaire survey, this study highlights the importance of tourism promotion campaigns in stimulating interregional tourism demand. Additionally, this article highlights the influence of social motivation and awareness-raising on tourists’ intention to participate in interregional tourism.
