Abstract

This article explores and compares LGBTIQ+ individuals in various types of tourism, with a special focus on gastronomic tourism. As tourism diversifies, it is essential to understand how different groups find and experience these spaces. This study analyses whether there is a specific profile of the LGBTIQ+ gastronomic tourist. Through a literature review and case studies, the characteristics of 590 LGBTIQ+ travellers in different tourism contexts are investigated, comparing them with those seeking gastronomic experiences. The results show that there is no specific type of LGBTIQ+ tourist for each class of tourism. However, the analysis shows that age and gender identity are significant variables that differentiate LGBTIQ+ tourists who prefer gastronomic tourism from those who participate in other types of tourism.
