Evaluating the sustainability status of tourism indicators in urban areas is one of the most reliable strategies for managers to ensure the sustainability of tourism development. The tourism life cycle model can accurately explain the sustainability of tourism development. The purpose of this study was to investigate the sustainability of tourism indicators and also the status of tourism life cycle in different regions of Tabriz. The research is applied and the approach is descriptive-analytical. The statistical population of this study consists of two levels: tourists and experts. The sample size of tourists was 386 persons selected by cluster sampling. Also, 20 university professors and tourism experts were used to prioritize the tourism life cycle stages in Tabriz. Findings showed that in terms of environmental, social, economic and physical sustainability, regions 1, 8, 8 and 10 with scores of 0.609, 0.874, 0.899, 0.698, respectively, have the highest score and the final score of all regions. Decimal is equal to 0.561. Also the results of the life cycle model findings showed that zones 8 and 4 are in development stage and the rest of zones are in intervention phase.
