A total of 481,000 guests entered the Macau border during the six-day Qingming Festival and Easter holidays from April 5 to 10, which means an average of about 80,000 guests came to Macau per day.
Most tourists during the festival:
According to information released by public security police, "2.97 million people went in and out of Macau in six days, 953,000 of them went in and out of Macau, 481,000 of whom went in and 472,000 left."
Looking at the total number of passengers entering the country, 190,000 people entered the country through the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macao Bridge and 136,000 through the border gate.
Visitors during the Easter holidays:
About 340,000 visitors visited during the four days of the Easter holiday, nearly 84,000 people entered Macau on Friday, April 7, the first day of the holiday, and about 90,000 people on Saturday.
However, positive visitor statistics increased further, with 451,047 visitors arriving in Macau for seven days during the recent Chinese Spring Festival "Golden Week" holiday in February. This is also a very good result for the Labor Day holiday on May 1, when there are five consecutive holidays in mainland China.
In addition, the Macau Government Tourism Authority (MGTO) announced a phase 2 visitor incentive on Monday, allowing visitors arriving through Hong Kong between April 10 and June 30 to get free return bus or ferry tickets if they buy the first travel ticket if they stay at least one night.
Highest number of visitors:
As mentioned earlier, the number of visitors during this year's Cheongmyeong and Easter holidays exceeded the total during the seven-day Lunar New Year period earlier this year, when just over 451,000 tourists visited Macau.
A total of 451,047 visitors to Macau during the Chinese Spring Festival Golden Week, up 297% from the same period last year. An average of 64,435 tourists booked a day for seven days, and 90,391 tourists visited in the middle of the week, up 311.5% from the same period last year.
Moreover, the average hotel occupancy rate during the Lunar New Year period reached 85.7%, representing an average annual increase of 22.4 percentage points, and the highest occupancy rate of 92.1% on January 24, the peak of local tourist arrivals. As expected, the accommodation rate also rose nearly 50%, to MOP 1,575 at about $195.3.
According to the Asia Gaming Brief, Macau's tourism bureau said, "The number of visitors during the festival exceeded expectations."
