US Tourism Slumps: 4 Million International Visitors Vanish in 2025, World Cup May Not Save It
TL;DR Summary
US inbound tourism fell by about 4 million international visitors in 2025, costing roughly $14 billion in spending and hitting markets from Canada to Germany; analysts cite brand damage and policy moves (visa-data demands, tariffs) as contributors. The World Cup across 11 US cities is projected to bring about 1.24 million international visitors, but downgraded projections and hotel discounts suggest it may not reverse the downturn.
