The National Visitor Survey and International Visitor Survey results have been released for June 2024

The National Visitor Survey (NVS) and International Visitor Survey (IVS) results have been released by Tourism Research Australia (TRA) for the Year Ended (YE) June 2024.

NVS and IVS results provide statistics on how Australian residents and international visitors travel in and to Australia. The data allows performance comparisons across states, regions and cities over time. NVS and IVS are a nationally consistent tourism industry statistical source which provides evidence for decision-makers of the value of tourism to state and regional economies.
