WACO, TX â Since the opening of Magnolia in 2015, Waco has been a top tourist destination, averaging over two million visitors a year since 2016.
âWeâre actually up about 18,000 visitors in October, so weâre excited about that. Weâre bringing back a few people with hotel rooms. Some people are coming and going for the day. So tourism is still very preliminary. Itâs about half of what it was a year ago, but itâs double what it was in 2015,â said Carla Pendergraft, Director of Marketing & Communications for the Waco Convention Center & Visitors Bureau.
