Abstract: This study aims to analyse the influence of cultural, social, personal and psychological factors on consumer purchasing decisions on products of creative industries in Bandung City. This study uses quantitative methods and statistical analysis. The population of this study comprises consumers who bought creative products, such as culinary, fashion, crafts, design and publishing and printing products, for a minimum of two times. The sample consists of 216 people identified via simple random sampling based on central limit theorem. Results reveal that personal and psychological factors significantly influence consumers' decisions to buy products from the creative industries.
