Nashville again named top global travel destination

Nashville has been named one of Frommer’s “Best Places to Go in 2025," and making the 14th consecutive year the travel guide has named the city one of its top global destinations. Nashville was one of just four U.S. destinations to make it onto the global list of 20 locations. Frommer’s, a globally respected travel authority, cites the 100th anniversary of both the Grand Ole Opry and Belcourt Theatre, along with other attractions celebrating milestones, including Adventure Science Center’s 80th and Cheekwood’s 65th. Nearly 17 million people visited Music City last year, generating $10.77 billion in visitor spending and providing $1.11 billion in local and state tax revenue. The industry employs 73,000 workers with $2.84 billion in labor income. Visitors spend $29.5 million per day in the city, and tourism saves each Nashville household each Nashville household $3,671 in annual taxes.
