“With international visitation increasing steadily from all NSW’s priority markets and the appetite for domestic travel still strong, we are well positioned to continue the strong recovery and transition into a growth period for our state’s visitor economy,” Minister Graham said.
Destination NSW CEO Steve Cox said: “Our cumulative visitor numbers and visitor expenditure across international, domestic and day trip traveller segments are positive and continue to grow compared to pre-pandemic levels.
"In the year ended June 2023, NSW welcomed 105.4 million visitors, compared to 67 million in year ended June 2020, who generated $48.6 billion in visitor expenditure, compared to $24.8 billion in year ended June 2020.
"Major visitor economy infrastructure projects in the pipeline, such as Western Sydney International Airport, will give stakeholders at home and overseas added confidence to explore new opportunities and open up new destinations in NSW."
