Tourism Industry's Contributions

Visit Napa Valley strategically manages tourism

Our goal is to maintain and increase leisure travel and spending in Napa Valley during nonpeak time periods, including November to April (Cabernet Season) and midweek, Sunday through Thursday nights.

On an ongoing basis we track visitor demographics, spending, length of stay and economic contributions to the community to show the true value of travel and why tourism benefits Napa Valley.

 

I've lived here my whole life. And I just feel like it's very neighborly and very warm and comfortable. Tourism has helped benefit us all. It's helped benefit my family.

There's not much of a drawback to having a better economy. It's better for everybody all the way down from contractors, people who aren't even in the tourism industry.

I get to help the guests with things to do in the Napa Valley. It makes their day. It puts a smile on their faces. And at the end of the day puts a smile on my face.
