Abstract

This study examines the influence of promotion, facilities, and accessibility on visitors’ decisions to attend the 2025 Mandalika MotoGP. Using a quantitative approach, data were obtained from 100 ticketed attendees through structured questionnaires. The data were analyzed through a series of validity, reliability, and classical assumption tests, followed by multiple linear regression analysis to assess the relationships among variables. The results show that promotion, facilities, and accessibility each have a positive and significant effect on visitors’ decisions. Among these factors, facilities emerged as the most dominant influence (β = 0.413), followed by promotion (β = 0.305) and accessibility (β = 0.286). Together, these variables explain 68.9 percent of the variation in visiting decisions. The findings highlight that visitors’ decisions are strongly shaped by the quality of supporting facilities, the effectiveness of promotional activities, and the ease of access to the venue. The study highlights the importance of an integrated destination management strategy that aligns promotional efforts, infrastructure readiness, and accessibility improvements to enhance Mandalika’s competitiveness as a sustainable international motorsport tourism destination.
