1 Greater Manchester Visitors Survey 2010 Executive Summary Funded by: Commissioned to: Northwest Regional Development Agency (NWDA) Bluegrass Research Ltd Overview As the tourist board for Greater Manchester, Visit Manchester has the responsibility of leading the destination to attract visitors to the sub-region. To enable Visit Manchester to do this effectively a strong understanding of its visitors and their experiences is required to inform the decision-making to achieve this.

Measure visitor satisfaction levels against a range of tourism product criteria. Measure visitor spend in terms of; visit contribution to the economy and spend dispersal patterns across the business sectors in the tourism industry. Additional objectives for the 2010 study: Measure visitor dispersal and cross-boundary visitor movement between Greater Manchester districts. Gain feedback to ascertain how the actual visit compared to pre-visit expectations.
