description Reflection on the contemporary character of tourist traffic in the city, in particular on the goals of visits and ways of spending time by visitors, shows new, currently emerging patterns of urban tourism. At the same time, many works on tourist demand, especially from the perspective of socio¬demographic changes, stress differences between generations in their preferences and behaviour. Current research on urban tourism clearly lacks a transgenerational perspective, which would take into empirical consideration generational cohorts. The aim of the article is to establish the differences between generations of Poles engaging in urban tourism (in the context of a post-industrial city). Source material for the work comes from studies on tourist traffic in the city of Łódź conducted in 2009 and 2016; further generational segmentation has been based on these data.
