Travelers are now drawn to a unique experience and a sense of immersion during travel. Our platform is incubating more inspiring content and excellent influencers to meet the evolving needs of post-pandemic travelers."
Partnered with leading music festival planning company Jungle Event, the "NOWCITY" music festival was organized by Ctrip Community, a content hub and valuable consumer tool of Trip.com Group sub-brand Ctrip, which gathers travelers, influencers, and bloggers and integrates differentiated content marketing strategies to engage and influence consumer choice.
