Abstract

In the context of museum visits, this study aims to explore whether engagement activities beyond the core service consumption (e.g., pre-visit, post-visit) help strengthen visitor engagement during the museum visit and, consequently, revisit intention and how. The findings found preliminary evidence for the impact of engagement activities beyond the core service on visitor engagement with artifacts and revisit intention. The impact is found to vary based on a visitor’s need for closure.
