American Music Tourism Act of 2024

HR 8843, the American Music Tourism Act of 2024, amends the Visit America Act to direct the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Travel and Tourism to identify and promote U.S. locations and events significant to music tourism for both domestic and international travelers. It requires the Assistant Secretary to specifically promote travel to music-related attractions (like museums, studios, and venues) and music festivals/concerts. The bill also defines "music tourism" as traveling to visit music sites or attend live music events. Finally, it mandates an annual report to Congress on progress toward these tourism goals, starting one year after the bill's enactment.
