aims
VisitEngland is proud to lead English Tourism Week (14-23 March 2025) celebrating our diverse, exciting and vibrant sector, and highlighting the quality and value of English tourism.
This annual campaign raises awareness of our industry among key stakeholders, including MPs, ministers and the media. It forms part of VisitEngland’s mission to champion the sector through political engagement nationally, regionally and locally – demonstrating to political decision-makers the importance of tourism in England and their local area.
English Tourism Week aims to:
Kickstart the spring/summer season and give businesses and destinations a marketing hook to engage with customers and encourage bookings
Give businesses an opportunity to engage with local stakeholders such as MPs and media, to bring attention to tourism’s contribution in their area.
Increase awareness among domestic visitors of the quality and variety of the English tourism offer, and encourage domestic travel.

Supporting England’s valuable visitor economy
English tourism touches everyone: visitors, residents, businesses and destinations. It is one of the few sectors active in every part of the country.
Composing 80% of the UK’s visitor economy, English tourism in 2019 generated over £100 billion a year and supported 2.6 million jobs – and is a major employer of school leavers and young people, as well as an incubator for entrepreneurs and innovation.
English Tourism Week puts tourism front-of-mind for key stakeholders, including MPs and ministers, and highlights the incredible work that goes into building strong and resilient destinations. As well as high-profile press coverage and social media activity, the campaign includes VisitEngland’s Tourism Superstar award, which celebrates the dedication and passion of the people who work in our industry.
