Las Vegas in April: Visitor Traffic Down 5.1% YoY; Convention Traffic up 13.9% YoY

With a strong convention segment and events including Wrestlemania, counterbalanced by
consumer uncertainty with evolving federal policies, visitation saw a net YoY decrease of ‐5.1% as
the destination hosted approximately 3.3 million visitors in April.

Convention attendance approached 574k attendees for the month, up 13.9% YoY, benefitting from
the in‐rotation of shows that were held elsewhere last year including International Sign Expo (21k
attendees), American Urological Association (15k attendees) and The Carwash Show (10k
attendees).

Occupancy reached 84.5%, down ‐1.0 pt with Weekend occupancy of 93.8% (up +0.4 pts) and
Midweek occupancy of 81.2% (down ‐1.4 pts). ADR for the month reached $190 (+4.4% YoY) with
RevPAR of $161 (+3.2% YoY).
