Over 11 million visitors saw Fort Worth in FY 2023. Tourism’s total economic impact exceeded $3.4 billion. Visitor spending was over a wide range of sectors, and that benefits the 32,000 jobs supported by tourism. That number would fill Dickies Arena twice, making hospitality one of our leading industries.
Visitor spending generated $233 million in state and local tax revenues. Without tourism, the average Fort Worth homeowner would need to pay an additional $712 in property taxes to make up the difference.
