Tourism

What we’re currently doing

London’s tourism offer is diverse and is made up by much more than just famous landmarks. London’s retail and leisure sector both play key roles in attracting domestic and international visitors, with our transport sector vital for moving tourists around London. Each month GLA Economics publishes tourism-related economic indicators, such as airport passenger numbers, in London’s Economy Today.

Tourism features have appeared in our twice-yearly London’s Economic Outlook and also in London’s Economy Today.
