The goal of this paper is to identify some factors that facilitate elderly visits to cultural institutions in the island Italian regions, Sicily and Sardinia. The sample (ISTAT data) refer to 2018 and considers 550 observations. We test three hypotheses: i. Do the intensity of public transport services and the extent of the connection network facilitate senior citizens’ visits? ii. Does information, even conveyed through social media, may increase the share of elderly visitors? iii. May pecuniary considerations influence visitors’ choices? Our results could be of interest to policy makers to favor the visit of cultural sites by the elderly
