Anaheim Tourism, Spending Up YTD

Visit Anaheim said 12.1 million travelers to the city have spent $4.2 billion in Orange County year-to-date, an increase of about 10% for each number, and have spent of about $347 per person.

About 23 million people visited Anaheim last year and spent about $8 billion in OC. 2017 is on pace to be about 5% higher than last year in travelers and spending, with summer numbers still to come, the group said.

Visit Anaheim promotes Anaheim as a tourism and business travel destination.

About 2.1 million people visited the city in June, up 1% year-over-year and down from 2.4 million in May, and they spent $710 million in the county, up 4% year-over-year and down from $740 million in May.

About two-thirds of travelers to the city are people who come for the day, and Anaheim visitors commonly make up about half of OC visitor totals.

CIC Research Inc. in San Diego collects and crunches the city travel and OC spending data for Visit Anaheim.
