Savannah Welcomes Sport Related Travel Back to Savannah this Weekend

This weekend, Savannah and Chatham County will welcome two sporting events to our community as we continue to see a return of business, conventions, meetings, and sports related travel. Please help us welcome the 2021 AAU Gymnastic National Championships and the Top Gun Sports Southeastern Summer World Series. Led by a strong bounce-back in leisure visitation since earlier this year, Chatham County is pacing better than most of the rest of the country in terms of important tourism-related numbers like lodging occupancy and hotel/motel tax collections. And as we see the gradual return of group business, we are fortunate to attract sports-related events that fill rooms and keep restaurants, retail shops and tours and attractions busy – especially as we head into the hotter summer months.
