Federal officials would promote U.S. music attractions to travelers worldwide.
This bill, called the American Music Tourism Act of 2025, would direct federal officials to actively promote U.S. music-related attractions and events to both American and international travelers. This means places like music museums, concert venues, and festivals could see more visitors, potentially boosting local economies. Currently, there's no specific federal effort to highlight music tourism.
Today, the Visit America Act does not specifically mention or promote music tourism. If this bill becomes law, the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Travel and Tourism would be explicitly directed to identify and promote music tourism locations and events, both domestically and internationally. Additionally, a statutory definition for "music tourism" would be established, and the Assistant Secretary would be required to submit regular reports to Congress on these activities.
