Visit Erie

Mission Statement: VisitErie is the leader of marketing Erie’s tourism industry and promoting its economic growth.

The Erie Area Convention & Visitors Bureau (EACVB) was formed as a division of the Erie Area Chamber of Commerce in 1961 and was formally named the “Erie Tourist and Convention Bureau”. In July 2001, the EACVB separated from the Erie Area Chamber of Commerce and became a stand-alone 501(c)6 non-profit organization and was designated as the official Tourism Promotion Agency for Erie County. In October 2007, the Erie Area Convention & Visitors Bureau officially changed its name to VisitErie. Since its separation from the Chamber, VisitErie has grown exponentially. In addition to increasing its staff, VisitErie has established multiple departments: Convention Sales and Services, Partnership, Marketing and Research, Communications, and the Erie Sports Commission.

As Erie County’s official Destination Marketing Organization, VisitErie provides visitors and residents with the most up-to-date information on Erie’s tourism product through the annual Erie Visitor Guide, ‘Hello Erie’ App, VisitErie.com, social media platforms, and other avenues.
