Summary/Abstract: Tourism could not exist without promotion, which has become vital in our powerfully globalized present-day world. Language plays an important part in promoting destinations and landmarks. The present study focuses particularly on the way tourism promotional discourse is organized as an interactive event involving language users. It aims to look contrastively at two types of texts, non-commercial and commercial, from a Systemic Functional perspective, namely, that of interpersonal metafunction.
