Abstract
This paper spotlights targeted and integrated public relations activities in destination brand management. It notes that PR is central to destination management strategies, but that there are few academic studies of the role of this promotion tool in destination marketing. To address this lacuna, the paper examines a case study of Tourism New Zealand, illustrating how partnership and PR can be harnessed to cost-effectively create a strong travel destination brand.
