Abstract

The creative industry has an essential role in supporting Indonesia’s economic movement, especially in the tourism sector. Tourism has become the leading sector of Yogyakarta, which is popular as the second tourist destination after Bali. There are 17 tourism kampongs registered in Yogyakarta that offer a variety of uniqueness based on their community’s local wisdom. In addition, the tourism kampongs may be an alternative tourist destination to introduce various local creative industries that reflect the values of art and culture. This study aims to find out the role of tourism kampongs in supporting local creative industries in Yogyakarta. It also explores the various products and services in tourism kampongs, which represent each kampong’s local potencies. The research implemented a descriptive qualitative method, particularly a case study. Based on the local creative industries survey that dominated Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), it can be described that culinary, craft and performing arts are sub-sectors of creative industries dominating the Yogyakarta tourism kampongs. These three sub-sectors are also scattered in almost all tourism kampongs in Yogyakarta. This study has identified that the tourism kampongs play a key role in promoting, introducing, and maintaining creative industries. Collaboration between Yogyakarta tourism kampongs and local creative industries has shown on the tour packages, such as walking tours, craft workshops, and other services. Furthermore, this mutual relationship may be a strategy to empower local SMEs and communities.
