According to THRENDS’ recent reanalysis of ISTAT data, statistics from the offices of several regions, and estimates for 2023 (due to a lack of available data), the top three regions in Italy by visitor numbers in 2023 were Veneto, Trentino-Alto Adige, and Tuscany. An overall view of the top 15 Italian regions shows an increase in volume compared to 2022, but not yet to the levels of 2019, except for Veneto, Trentino-Alto Adige, and Lombardy among the top six; while all southern regions, except for Campania, recorded record numbers in 2023. In the North, Lombardy, Liguria, and Friuli grew more than in 2019. In the South, Sicily, Puglia, and Sardinia; and in the Center, Marche and Abruzzo. In a decade-long comparison, Sardinia, Lombardy, Puglia, Liguria, Lazio, and Campania grew by more than 20%.
