Australia Tourism 2020

Tourism 2020 is a whole-of-government and industry long-term strategy to build the resilience and competitiveness of Australia’s tourism industry and grow its economic contribution. It focuses on improving the industry’s performance and competitiveness by pursuing new opportunities for growth and addressing supply-side factors.

The Tourism 2020 goal is to achieve more than $115 billion in overnight spend by 2020 (up from $70 billion in 2009).

Tourism Australia shares this goal with the Australian tourism industry and federal, state and territory governments in an effort to maximize tourism’s economic contribution to the Australian people.
