Destination DC

Destination DC, the destination marketing organisation for Washington DC, is using the people of the District as the hook to lure tourists back, following a slow down in visitation.

Destination DC, the official destination marketing organisation for Washington DC, has launched its global travel agent training program.

Washington DC welcomed a record 23.8 million visitors in 2018, a figure that was up 4.4% year-on-year. That figure was overwhelmingly weighted by domestic travellers (21.9 million), with the US Capital’s international markets (excluding northern and southern neighbours, Canada and Mexico) accounting for 1.9 million down more than 5% compared to the prior corresponding period.

Ovolo in Woolloomooloo was replicated as the unique neighbourhoods of Washington, DC last night, as Destination DC and their partners, Kimpton Hotel and Restaurant Group and United Airlines, treated up to 100 members of the travel industry and media to a taste of DC.
