Tourism WA

The Western Australian Tourism Commission (trading as Tourism WA) is the State Government's agency responsible for promoting Western Australia as a holiday destination. Its focus is on marketing the State; developing, attracting and promoting major sporting, cultural and business events; and developing significant tourism infrastructure and projects.

Tourism WA was amalgamated with the industry promotion and innovation functions of the Department of Commerce and the Department of State Development on 1st July 2017 to form the new Department of Jobs, Tourism, Science and Innovation.
