Canadian Travel to Las Vegas Declines by Nearly One-Third in 2023
Published Sep 28, 2023 | Updated Mar 31, 2026 | 1 min read
Travel from Canada to Las Vegas has seen a significant downturn in 2023, with visitor arrivals dropping by approximately 31% compared to 2019 levels, according to data from the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority. This decline contrasts with a recovery in 2022 when Canadian visits nearly returned to pre-pandemic figures. Several economic pressures have contributed to this trend, including inflation and a comparatively stronger U.S. dollar, which have increased travel costs for Canadians. Additionally, complications arising from delays in Canadian passport renewals and new issuances have made international travel more difficult. The cumulative effect of these factors has tempered the Canadian market's previously strong recovery following the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite ongoing efforts to attract travelers, the challenges facing Canadian visitors reflect broader economic and logistical issues impacting cross-border tourism to the United States. The North American gaming and hospitality sector, particularly in Las Vegas, continues to monitor these developments as Canadian travelers have traditionally represented a key demographic for the region’s casinos and entertainment venues.
