LFT in 2025 “We provide trust and foster resilient relationships.”

28.01.2025Strategy

Let’s start by setting the scene. What are the characteristics of our times? At a time of polycrisis, there is a tendency for people who can, to retreat into the private sphere, into feel-good bubbles, away from the dangers of the world.  Among all the fast-moving chaos, there is a need for security and a desire for normality, and trust.

There is a lean towards experiences instead of the material. Hyper-individualism is increasing, while health, well-being, and sustainability are ever-more important. There can be such a thing as too many options, which is not necessarily desirable and leads to trends and counter-trends, and ultimately, consumer confusion.

How does Luxembourg for Tourism position its activities and brand Visit Luxembourg in this present reality?

“We offer trust and promote resilient relationships.”

In response to these fast-changing times, the LFT strategy focuses on consolidating its high value brand, a reliable reference for guests and partnerships in Luxembourg. LFT promotes strong relationships, actively develops networks at all levels and links them in the interests of the brand and the destination.

Priorities for LFT in 2025

It starts with the Visit Luxembourg brand, and the ongoing work to protect and anchor it. The international marketing under the “Luxembourg. Live the Moment.” campaign, is the widest reaching expression of the brand, active in Germany, France, Belgium, the Netherlands, Switzerland and the UK. “Luxembourg. Live the Moment.” plays creatively with people's holiday expectations on the one hand and the ultimate experience in Luxembourg on the other.

During 2025 the harmonization of the cross-channel approach for the campaign will continue. In this sense, LFT will strengthen its focus on social media, as studies continue to prove the importance of social media in travel inspiration and decision-making. In turn, the popularity of short form video calls for a developed video content strategy and library.  The market placement and expansion of LFT products LuxembourgPass and VisitLuxembourg app will accelerate, along with a view to increase the qualitative reach of visitluxembourg.com.

Surrounding all of the guiding principles for international marketing, LFT pays continued attention to sustainability and the future development of the destination. Each action connects with another to complete the whole destination marketing approach. At the same time, destination marketing is in its essence all about collaboration.
