Yes No If relevant, name(s) of ward(s): Are there implications for equality and diversity and cohesion and Yes No integration? Is the decision eligible for call-In? Yes No Does the report contain confidential or exempt information? Yes No If relevant, access to information procedure rule number: Appendix number: Summary of main issues 1. Tourism is a significant and growing sector of the Leeds economy and a major contributory factor to the success of the city benefitting everyone who lives and works here. Leeds currently attracts around 27 million visitors a year, generating £1.15 billion of economic benefits, and supporting around 18,500 jobs. We are the 6th most popular visitor destination for overnight visitors in the UK and the 6th most popular UK conference destination. In 2014, Leeds attracted over 54,000 conferences and meetings, providing a £447m boost to the city’s economy. The top five comprise: London, Birmingham, Manchester, Edinburgh and Glasgow. Visitor numbers and tourism spending in Leeds is growing rapidly, at a faster rate than the national average. 2. Our ambition is to build on this success by working collaboratively as VisitLeeds with a number of organisations such as Welcome to Yorkshire and VisitEngland, who will continue to promote Leeds as a destination, secure new conference and leisure tourism business, and to develop the offer for visitors. This report sets out the plan and priorities for this work over the year ahead and how we will achieve our objectives.
