Residents Talk Tourism

In 2022, Tourism Revelstoke asked residents to provide us with feedback on tourism within our community. Since then, we've created a Destination Management Plan to align the actions we take with the values we heard are important to residents. This plan represents our community’s long term vision to make Revelstoke the best place it can be for residents, visitors, and the next generations.

Our local culture is a key component to our success as a destination. Something we hear loud and clear from visitor experience surveys is that visitors value our local community vibe - they love how welcome they feel and the authenticity of the people they encounter. That experience is curated entirely by locals, so preservation of our unique small town mountain charm and welcoming nature is essential for our tourism economy to thrive.

We recognize that tourism can’t just be about unbridled growth and that we can’t be good hosts if we aren't able to thrive in our own community, which is why your opinion matters to us!

We'd like to continue to hear from you regarding your thoughts, feelings and insights related to tourism in Revelstoke. We believe that locals should be actively involved in decision-making processes related to tourism development and management in our community. Your feedback will help inform our destination management priorities for the coming years.
