Miami-Dade County's official destination marketing agency, The Greater Miami Convention & Visitors Bureau (GMCVB), announced statistics that confirmed a successful season last year.

The county's official travel and tourism site welcomed more than 26.5 million visitors in 2022, a record number that demonstrates the enduring appeal of this coastal region of Florida. These record numbers also had a significant impact on the local economy, as it is estimated that visitors spent more than 20.8 billion dollars during their stay in the area.
