Tourism Benefits the Community

While the economic benefits of tourism are increasingly appreciated by local communities, many don't often think about the ancillary benefits. If the Napa Valley were not a tourist destination, we wouldn't have the breadth of arts and culture, unique hospitality, and culinary ingenuity that we do. Tourism brings more to the community and gives back just the same.

Tourism’s Contributions to Affordable Housing

Tourism is committed to be a part of the workforce housing solution in Napa Valley. In 2018, the lodging industry supported a one percent addition to Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) charged on each room night that is specifically designated for workforce housing.
