Hello everyone!

 

In our wonderful global community, we’ve got members from all kinds of places, from rural to city and everywhere in between.

 

From local festivals, to Pride celebrations, there’s always something awesome going on somewhere!  

 

I would love to know what special events have increased your bookings. Are they yearly? Were they a one off?  For those who share a space with their guests, did you feel a sense of involvement in the festivities?  Let me know in the comments, and feel free to share any photos or stories about your experiences.

 

Can’t wait to hear from you all.

@Jules155 This is why I do Airbnbing and it must be the same for you and your family with your history of your forefathers of choosing to live there. I am sure you have a history timeline with photos and stories from the past which are handed down from one generation to another.

That's so exciting @Jules155!. As @Laurelle3 said it's amazing how a place can be given exposure through the media.

 

I live in Scotland so there's a good few places here which were also used - I wonder if Scottish Airbnb Hosts have also felt the positive effect on their bookings!

 

I absolutely love that you put out the flag and give mugs to fans - that's such a nice touch!

 

Do you ever go to the Highland games?

Recently “ Gather Round AFL” just released the date for 2024. Suddenly many bookings are coming in Adelaide, Australia, therefore, the local popular events are definitely going to make a significant contribution. For example sooner I know the dates and setting up the price, in a few hours, my place got booked in 9 months advance

That's amazing!  Does it give you a sense of security knowing you've got those bookings locked in so early?

Hello!

 

I want to recommend you should go to Tokyo if you want to go to special events for feeling in Japan.

because, Tokyo is very big city in the world and you will be enjoy around the world.

The price for shopping is expensive than my town (Chiba) and your town (I don't know where you are living in the town...). however not only that but also there are a lot of parks at the constituency of tokyo such as shinjyuku, chuoku, minato, and so on...

 

I also sometimes visit from suburb to Tokyo. but It's impressed with higher building and new technologies again and again!

 

but rather than I want to go to abroad for making friends...

 

Thanks,

Minako

Hi Jenny, If you are aware how big Bollywood is in India, you will understand !

1. Part of a popular movie, was shot here in the flat.

2. A Netflix movie, had 95% of its shooting done here.

 

Game changer!

Local festivals and cultural events: Participating in local festivals, whether musical, culinary, artistic or cultural, can attract guests looking to experience the unique atmosphere of your area. Sharing information about these events and their proximity to your venue can be a strong attraction. But wherever you are there is always the possibility of playing at online casinos, by the way, can you tell me how much ** can be trusted with this information? Holiday events: Depending on the time of year, holiday events can be attractive to guests. Events such as New Year's Eve parties, Christmas markets or Halloween events can make your property attractive to travellers looking to celebrate the festivities.
