National Travel & Tourism week
In 2011, Lubbock welcomed more than 5.23 million visitors to town! According to the report by D. K. Shifflet & Associates some of those visitors came for work, but the majority came to enjoy Lubbock’s attractions, unique shops and robust dining options. So how do visitors to Lubbock impact you as a Lubbockite? Tourism to the “Hub City” most directly impacts your pocketbook. As a result of travel to Lubbock, more than $455 was saved on property taxes per household in 2011. Locally, the tourism industry employs 7,200 people resulting in $200.8 million in annual earnings.
The Visit Lubbock Team is proud to join in the celebration of National Travel & Tourism Week, recognized annually the first week of May. Since 1984, destination marketing organizations across the nation have promoted the week through a variety of events and activities all meant to champion the power of travel. This year, the Visit Lubbock Team is proud to unveil the Live Love Lubbock campaign! We hope you will print off the Live Love Lubbock Itinerary Game card and enjoy some quality time with family and friends as you celebrate all that Lubbock has to offer.
Also, be sure to “like” Visit Lubbock on Facebook or follow us on Twitter to hear about the latest and greatest things happening in the “Hub City.” During National Travel & Tourism Week, a number of local shops and restaurants will offer a daily deal, but the only place to find out about it is via Visit Lubbock’s social media channels. So hit the town, see what all the fuss is about and Live Love Lubbock.
