A total of 481,000 visitors entered Macau during the six-day Ching Ming Festival and Easter holiday period (5 to 10 April), an average of nearly 80,000 visitors per day.

According to the information released by the Public Security Police Force, 2.97 million people entered and left Macau during the six day period, of which 953,000 were tourists entering and leaving the city. Of these, 481,000 entered and 472,000 departed.

Inbound passenger numbers included 190,000 arrivals via the Hong Kong-Zhuhai-Macau Bridge, with another 136,000 through the Border Gate.

During the four-day Easter holiday from 7o to 10 April there were around 340,000 visitor arrivals. On the first day of the holiday on Friday 7 April, about 84,000 people entered Macau while there were almost 90,000 arrivals on Saturday.

The positive visitor statistics grow further on the recent Chinese New Year “Golden Week” holiday in February, when 451,047 tourists entered Macau across the seven-day period. It also bodes well for the upcoming Labor Day holidays from 1 May, which includes five consecutive days of holidays in mainland China.

As reported by IAG, the Macao Government Tourist Office (MGTO) on Monday launched its second phase of visitor incentives, allowing for visitors entering via Hong Kong between 10 April and 30 June to receive a free return bus or ferry ticket upon purchase of their initial travel ticket, provided they stay for at least one night.
