Terres LAB is aimed to explore the new trends in using audiovisual to communicate and explain tourism experiences, as well as to highlight the importance of film tourism in contemporary destinations. Framed in Terres Festival, the conference intends to provide an academic-professional and multidisciplinary space for exchanging theoretical research, best practices and case studies in tourism audiovisual and all sectors involved.

 

The restrictions announced by the health authorities that the current covid-19 pandemic is causing in Catalonia have led us to postpone the celebration of Terres LAB – Congress on Audiovisual, Landscape ands Tourism until 2021.
