Since 1980, the United Nations World Tourism Organization has observed World Tourism Day on September 27 as an international observance. This date was chosen because the UNWTO Statutes were adopted on that day in 1970. The adoption of these Statutes is regarded as a watershed moment in global tourism. The goal of this day is to raise awareness about tourism's role in the international community and to demonstrate how it affects social, cultural, political, and economic values around the world.
