Queensland is the Home of the Holiday, and the Crisafulli Government has a clear plan to keep it that way.

Just one year after launching Destination 2045, Queensland's visitor economy is already tracking ahead of expectations.

We're getting on with the job of growing tourism through major events, better connectivity, new experiences, and the infrastructure needed to support long-term growth.

We're also working to cement Queensland as the events capital of Australia because more events mean more visitors, more local spending, and more opportunities for communities across the state.

But the real strength of Queensland tourism is its people.

Operators, industry leaders, workers, volunteers, and local communities create the experiences that keep visitors coming back year after year.

Thank you for everything you do to make Queensland the Home of the Holiday.

Together, we're growing our visitor economy, supporting jobs and creating lasting benefits for Queenslanders.
