Zusammenfassung:This paper focuses on the location patterns of Cultural and Creative Industries (CCIs) and the role played by existing clusters of these industries when entering markets. Departing from previous identification of clusters in CCIs, we analyse location determinants patterns and whether entering firms are attracted by these existing clusters. The aim of this paper is to identify if clusterisation of CCIs provides strong locational advantages for entering firms or if, by the contrary, firms also consider not clustered areas. The study uses firms’ data from Mercantile Register (SABI). Keywords: creative industries, clusters, location. JEL codes: C38, R12, Z10.
