They lobby on behalf of the Nevada Resort Association, and while working with the LVCVA, they played a critical role in bringing the A's and Formula 1 to Vegas.
Jesse MerrickHOST
And also too, they played a big part in helping build Allegiant Stadium alongside an integrated public education campaign too.
Jesse MerrickHOST
And they told The Nevada Independent that this merger now helps them represent our state better on, like, a global scale.
Cynthia PugaHOST
And we know a major convention will be coming here to Las Vegas, but what we don't know is what that convention is.
Cynthia PugaHOST
The LVCVA says the event is signed up for three years starting in 2031, but organizers have asked that it not be identified.
Cynthia PugaHOST
And according to an LVCVA official, the convention will use the Venetian Caesars Palace, Wynn Las Vegas, and the yet-to-open Hard Rock as its headquarters resorts.
Cynthia PugaHOST
Allegiant Stadium will also be used.

The event will be staged in November between the RE Plus Clean Energy Trade Show and the Formula One Las Vegas Grand Prix.

Bronwen GreggHOST
Exactly, and we've seen that.
Jan Jones BlackhurstGUEST
'Cause if you don't speak to them, it...
Jan Jones BlackhurstGUEST
I was at LVCVA at a board meeting, that's Las Vegas Visitors and Convention Authority, and they're talking about the importance, and I am the worst at any kind of social media.
Bronwen GreggHOST
[laughs]
Lenny TalaricoGUEST
Okay? We're already paying for that.
Lenny TalaricoGUEST
Now, is this in some way subsidizing that and giving them additional slush funds to spend in other ways via promoting Las Vegas in a broader capacity? Because most of this tax is going and flowing through the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority, so, and we do see, you know, millions of resident- uh, millions of visitors, I should say, every year.
Lenny TalaricoGUEST
So yeah, without this, uh, what, what are you calling it? T- uh, transient, uh, uh, transient, uh-
Alexia Cristina PostolidisHOST
Occupancy tax

Dan MullenGUEST
Who wouldn't want to be here? I mean, your college football national championships here.
Jesse MerrickHOST

Jesse MerrickHOST
Like, didn't the LVCVA just pay a bunch of influencers, right, to come here and, like, you know, put on the city and everything like that?
Layla MuhammadPANELIST
Yeah, take pictures.
Jesse MerrickHOST
So like, yeah.
Jesse MerrickHOST
I think of it, or maybe we just start taxing per selfie.
Jesse MerrickHOST
I don't know.
Jesse MerrickHOST
Maybe that's the way we monetize this for the city, [laughs] you know? Add a little more money to LVCVA's bankroll.
Jesse MerrickHOST
[laughs]
JohnHOST
In a related note, multiple outlets report that Harry Reid International Airport saw a 9.16 reduction in overall traffic compared to the previous August.
JohnHOST
On the bright side, the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority reports that it l- that at least convention attendance was up by 6%.
JohnHOST
Bill, is this just a Vegas problem or a sign of a broader economic problem?
BillHOST
So I'm not a good enough economist to know about signs of a broader economic problems.
