  • Las Vegas Casino and Hotel Market Outlook 2021
    Superior Results Through Unrivaled Hospitality Intelligence. Everywhere. FEBRUARY 2021 LAS VEGAS CASINO AND HOTEL MARKET OUTLOOK 2021 Shannon S. Okada, MAI Managing Director, Gaming HVS Gaming 8545 W. Warm Springs Road, A-4 #336 Las Vegas, Nevada 89113 HVS Gaming Division www.hvs.com HVS.com 8445 W. Warm Springs Road, A-4 #336, Las Vegas, NV 89117 USA The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Las Vegas economy has been extremely harsh given the market’s reliance on visitation and conventions. Following five consecutive years of accommodating more than 42 million visitors, Las Vegas hosted just over 19 million people in 2020 (the lowest number of visitors since 18.1 million in 1989). While vaccination rollouts have begun in Nevada, measures to curb the spread of the COVID-19 virus remain in place. Continued weak performance is anticipated through the first half of 2021. Thereafter, the recovery of travel and general economic performance is expected to accelerate as vaccines, medical therapies, and public confidence support the beginning of the return to pre-pandemic levels. Fortunately, construction is classified as an essential business in Nevada and has continued throughout the pandemic. New developments will contribute to the eventual recovery of the market. COVID-19 PANDEMIC On March 17, 2020, Nevada’s Governor Steve Sisolak ordered the closure of Nevada’s nonessential businesses and urged residents to implement social‐distancing measures to reduce spreading the COVID‐19 virus. The Las Vegas economy was devastated in April and May 2020 due to the shutdown of businesses. Governor Sisolak authorized certain businesses, including restaurants, barbershops, hair salons, and most retail businesses, to reopen with limitations beginning May 9, 2020, and Nevada began its emergence from the pandemic shutdown.
