{{Expand list|date=August 2008}}Tourism in Indianapolis is a vital sector of the local economy. According to Visit Indy, 28.8 million visitors generated $5.4 billion in 2017, the seventh straight year of record growth.[1] In 2015, the hospitality and tourism industry employed 77,800 people in the region.[2]

Indianapolis has long been a sports tourism destination, but has more recently relied on conventions.[3] The Indiana Convention Center (ICC) and Lucas Oil Stadium are considered mega convention center facilities, with a combined {{convert|750000|sqft|m2}} of exhibition space.[4] ICC is connected to 12 hotels and 4,700 hotel rooms, the most of any U.S. convention center.[5] In 2008, the facility hosted 42 national conventions with an attendance of 317,815; in 2014, it hosted 106 for an attendance of 635,701.[3] Since 2003, Indianapolis has hosted Gen Con, one of the largest gaming conventions in North America.[6]
