Tourism in the NWT showed continued recovery in the 2024/2025 year, building on the rebound seen in the 2024 season. Based on available data, the NWT has returned to 65% of pre-pandemic (2019) visitor levels. The recovery in visitors coming to the NWT slowed in the 2024/2025 year, likely due to wildfire and flooding anxiety remaining from the 2023/2024 season.
