Tourist Arrivals in the United Kingdom decreased to 9297 Thousand in the fourth quarter of 2024 from 10408 Thousand in the third quarter of 2024. This dataset provides - United Kingdom Tourist Arrivals- actual values, historical data, forecast, chart, statistics, economic calendar and news.

London’s Tourism Direct GVA (TDGVA) in 2019 is estimated by taking London’s share of the latest ONS regional TDGVA publication (2013) and multiplying it with the latest TDGVA estimate (2017) for the UK. The resulting figure is then multiplied with a ratio of London spend data from VisitBritain’s International Passenger Surveys from 2019 and 2017. This approach assumes 1) that London’s share of UK TDGVA has remained constant from 2013 to 2017 and 2) a constant relation between spend and GVA from 2017 to 2019.

The annual VisitBritain forecast for the volume and value of inbound tourism to the UK is issued in December each year. They have however updated this to reflect the impact of COVID-19 on inbound tourism to the UK, as well as an estimate of impact on domestic tourism within England. These were used to estimate London’s tourism spend for 2020. More details on the inbound tourism forecast for 2020 to the UK and domestic tourism with in England for 2020 can be found at Visit Britain.

Abstract copyright UK Data Service and data collection copyright owner.The Taking Part survey collects data on many aspects of leisure, culture and sport in England, as well as an in-depth range of socio-demographic information on respondents. The survey is commissioned by the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) in partnership with three of its non-departmental public bodies (Sport England, Arts Council England and English Heritage). The survey was first commissioned in 2005 as a face-to-face household survey of adults (16+) in England. Since then it has run annually and has also been developed to include further elements, including a child element and a longitudinal element. Further information can be found on the Gov.uk Taking Part web pages. The Taking Part: London 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Host Borough Survey was a one-off, area-specific survey that covered only the six Olympic host boroughs (Barking and Dagenham, Greenwich, Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest) rather than the whole of England. It was commissioned to inform the 'Meta-Evaluation of the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games', which is assessing the impacts and legacy of the Games. The survey gathered information on the views, behaviours and attitudes of the residents of the host boroughs, and will form a key part of the assessment of the impact of the Games on East London. The methodology for this survey was consistent with that of Taking Part. Interviews with 1,320 adults were conducted between 27 February and 27 April 2012. Main Topics: Questions on cultural engagement, sports participation, volunteering, Olympic and Paralympic engagement and demographics were replicated directly from the main Taking Part 2011-2012 Survey (see SN 7222). In addition, questions were also included on perceptions of the local area, community cohesion, access to jobs, green issues and sustainability, satisfaction with park legacy plans and the consultation process, and how long respondents had lived in the area.

Daytime population - The estimated number of people in a borough in the daytime during an average day, broken down by component sub-groups.

The figures given are an average day during school term-time. No account has been made for seasonal variations, or for people who are usually in London (resident, at school or working), but are away visiting another place.

Sources include the Business Register and Employment Survey (BRES) (available under license), Annual Population Survey (APS), 2011 Census, Department for Education (DfE), International Passenger Survey (IPS), GB Tourism Survey (GBTS), Great Britain Day Visit Survey (GBDVS), GLA Population Projections, and GLA Economics estimates (GLAE).

The figures published in these sources have been used exactly as they appear - no further adjustments have been made to account for possible sampling errors or questionnaire design flaws.

Day trip visitors are defined as those on day trips away from home for three hours or more and not undertaking activities that would regularly constitute part of their work or would be a regular leisure activity.

International visitors – people from a country other than the UK visiting the location;
Domestic overnight tourists – people from other parts of the UK staying in the location for at least one night.
All visitor data is modelled and unrounded.

This edition was released on 7 October 2015 and replaces the previous estimates for 2013.

GLA resident population, 2011 Census resident population, and 2011 Census workday populations (by sex) included for comparison.
