Las Vegas's tourism slump reached new lows in November despite the city hosting the Grand Prix that month in a bid to attract a swarm of visitors. 

The number of passengers making their way through Harry Reid International Airport declined nearly ten percent in November when compared to the same period last year.

The airport served around 3.96million domestic passengers last month, down from about 4.34million in November 2024. 

That was also a drop from October, when there were already far fewer airport departures and arrivals. 

In October, Harry Reid had around 4.5million domestic travelers pass through, which was a 7.8 percent decline from October 2024. 

August and September both had declines of about six percent when compared with the same months last year, indicating that the slump is getting worse. 

November marked the tenth straight month of passenger total decreases, with the last increase taking place in January, when there was a mild 0.4 percent bump.

And the numbers are even more dismal when focusing on international visitors. There have always been significantly fewer international travelers using Harry Reid, but their numbers are declining even more rapidly.

In September, there were 13.5 percent fewer international visitors compared to the same month last year, and in October, the number was 14.2 percent. 

In November, international arrivals and departures were down a whopping 21.2 percent.

The sharp decline last month occurred despite the city hosting the Las Vegas Grand Prix, which was the event's 75th anniversary and by all accounts was a success. 

The three-day race sold out all 300,000 of its tickets. Emily Prazer, CEO of the Las Vegas Grand Prix, told Reuters that she was proud of the event and what it delivered, calling it 'Formula One at its very best.'

'We elevated the guest experience at every turn and created iconic cultural moments that could only happen in Las Vegas, all while staying firmly rooted in what matters most - the race,' she said. 

But the event's success did not stem the bleeding tourism numbers. Elevated prices continue to push away visitors who have been complaining about
