In-person interviews were conducted with more than 900 overnight lodging visitors at eight Henderson hotels and local attractions. More than half of the visitors were first time visitors to Henderson with their primary purpose of visiting friends and relatives or attending a conference/business activity. Some of the popular activities they took in included shopping, outdoor activities or a special event. Lake Las Vegas, Ethel M and the District at Green Valley Ranch were the most popular attractions, but visitors also spent time on the Las Vegas strip and Downtown Las Vegas. More than 50% visited a casino with a gambling budget of approximately $200. Henderson received the highest levels of agreement for a safe place to visit, good place for a family vacation and an affordable travel destination. Ms. Mallari noted that they continue to partner with Lake Las Vegas on tourism events such as the Audi Henderson Lake Las Vegas Classic and Tough Mudder. Destination Henderson also continues to work with Travel Nevada and LVCVA on familiarization trips to Lake Las Vegas.
