Join VISIT DENVER. VISIT DENVER is a private, nonprofit trade association that is responsible for marketing metro Denver as a convention and leisure destination. The Bureau is contracted by the City and County of Denver to act as the official marketing agency for Denver. In 2008, the Bureau had a budget of $14 million, which was derived from 2.75 percent of the lodger’s tax in the City and County of Denver, from advertising and private fundraising and from the membership fees the Bureau collects from its more than 1,300 business members.

Integrated Marketing to Target Markets

The Bureau uses a sophisticated integrated marketing approach to sell Denver as a travel destination, which includes direct sales, sales blitzes, and telemarketing, advertising and direct mail, tourism and convention industry trade shows, Internet promotions, e-mail blasts,  websites, podcasts, and e-newsletters, visitor guides and brochures, public relations and press tours, client familiarization tours and site inspections, and visitor information centers.
