As an important tourist attraction, the celebrities’ former residences can drive the development of urban tourism to a large extent. Therefore, the innovation and activation of celebrities’ former residences in the development of cultural tourism is of great significance and value. However, compared with foreign countries, the development of Chinese celebrities’ former residences tourism has some problems such as late start time and shallow experience content, which lead to a series of problems such as low attraction to tourists, short tour time, small consumption scale, low satisfaction, and low re-visit rate.
