American Music Tourism Act of 2025
The American Music Tourism Act of 2025 directs the Assistant Secretary of Commerce for Travel and Tourism to identify and promote U.S. locations and events related to music tourism for both domestic and international travelers. It adds specific requirements to prioritize music-related attractions (like venues, studios, museums, and festivals) in domestic travel campaigns and international marketing efforts for conferences, events, and cultural tourism. The bill also mandates annual reports to Congress on progress toward these tourism goals. This affects federal travel promotion agencies and indirectly supports music venues, festivals, and local tourism economies by integrating music tourism into official travel strategies.
