Mercer County Launches New Tourism Website and Division
What happened
Mercer County established a Division of Tourism and Travel in 2024, which is now operating the county’s destination marketing organization. The county launched a new tourism website to serve as its central tourism center. This initiative is supported by a $240,000 grant from the state’s Division of Travel and Tourism.
Why it matters
The county’s shift to a new marketing division and the use of grant funding for targeted advertising campaigns signal a strategic push to increase visitor numbers across Mercer County. The new website provides broader information on county dining and shopping options.
