Las Vegas in September: Visitor Traffic Down 9% YoY

Driven largely by slower midweek volumes, the destination saw a ‐8.8% YoY decrease in visitation,
hosting approximately 3.1M visitors.

Las Vegas convention attendance reached roughly 428k in September, down ‐18.7% YoY, reflecting
in part the absence of the quadrennial MINExpo (45k attendees) that was held last September, and
the calendar shift for Oracle CloudWorld (30k attendees) which took place in October this year vs.
September last year.

Hotel occupancy of 78.7% (down ‐5.2 pts) and ADR of $191 (‐2.9% YoY) translated to monthly
RevPAR of $150 (‐9.0% YoY).
