FREDERICKSBURG, Texas -- The 2021 Annual Report of the Fredericksburg Convention and Visitor Bureau (FCVB) will be available to the public starting on Monday, May 2.

Returning to its standard format after being altered due to the COVID-19 pandemic in 2019 and 2020, the report is a detailed snapshot of the tourism industry in Gillespie County.

With a title of “The Future of Travel” – the theme of National Travel & Tourism Week in 2022 – the report features the ads of the FCVB’s recently launched stewardship campaign – Love FBGTX, plus specifics on its continued promotion of midweek visitation and Fredericksburg’s 175^th Anniversary Celebration. The stewardship campaign’s development is also detailed.

On the data-side of things, the report shows that statistically the tourism industry of Fredericksburg and Gillespie County enjoyed a record-breaking year in terms of hotel occupancy and sales tax collections.  It also presents attraction attendance figures, the tourism-industry’s economic impact on Gillespie County and lodging performance.

A digital copy of the report can be found at VisitFredericksburgTX.com/2021-fcvb-annual-report.

Physical copies of the report are available for pickup at the Visitor Information Center at 302 E. Austin St. during normal business hours: Monday-Saturday 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. The report will also be distributed during the FCVB’s invitation-only National Travel & Tourism Week event on Tuesday, May 3, from 4-7 p.m. at the Visitor Information Center and mailed out to tourism-industry partners in the county.
