Las Vegas casino owner offers unique deal to entice visitors back amid slump
Summary
Circa Resort & Casino in Las Vegas has launched a promotion offering an “at par” exchange rate for Canadian tourists, aiming to counteract a decline in tourism, particularly from Canada. Owner Derek Stevens was inspired by similar practices in Detroit during unfavorable exchange rates, hoping to make Las Vegas more welcoming. Canadian tourism is down 20-50% in the last year, and while some Canadians feel unwelcome in the U.S., others appreciate the gesture. Through November 2025, Las Vegas saw 35.4 million visitors, a 7.4% decrease from 2024, with international visitors also down significantly.
