Part 3/8:
Another alarming statistic that the report uncovered is the significant drop in first-time visitors. Currently, only 14% of surveyed tourists were visiting Las Vegas for the first time, which signals that the city is increasingly relying on repeat visitors, often dubbed “the same old offenders.” This reliance may limit the opportunities for growth as potential newcomers choose other destinations over Las Vegas.
Trends in Spending and Visiting Habits
There’s a noticeable shift in spending patterns as well. Where visitors once explored multiple casinos during their stay, the average number of casinos visited per trip has dropped from 2.2 to 1.8. Visitors are evidently becoming more selective, potentially due to anticipated costs or unsatisfactory casino offers.
