uilding on Volume 6.3 of the Journal of Tourism Futures (Yeoman, 2020), we further explore the concept of micro trends and how they influence the business and management of tourism. Part 2 of this special issue clusters a series of short trends papers around Futures Thinking; Products and Destinations and Technology. Micro trends or emergent trends are seedlings now but are predicted to be become dominant in the future. They are important to observe as they are signals and sign posts for the future of tourism (Robertson and Yeoman, 2014). Certain micro trends are important to follow as they become the basis of big data and segmentation models for destination decision-making (Fuchs et al., 2014;Perera et al., 2020).
