About the Bureau
The Anchorage Convention & Visitors Bureau’s (ACVB) mission is to attract and serve visitors to the Municipality of Anchorage.
Bureau Goals
- Generate more visitor dollars to build and diversify Anchorage’s economy.
- Maintain ACVB as the expert for Anchorage’s destination marketing, and being a steward for the community.
- Educate Alaskans of the value of conventions and visitors to the Anchorage community.
- Optimize revenue, grow overnight stays in Anchorage to increase accommodations tax revenues, and ensure the continued success of the Anchorage Civic and Convention Center complex while controlling costs..
ACVB’s marketing functions are funded by one-third of the bed tax collected by the lodging association. One-third goes to the Municipality’s general fund and one-third goes to the Dena’ina Civic & Convention Center construction project.
ACVB receives no state or federal funds.
