We love our visitors to LakePlacid and Sebring.

Tourism's impact reaches every corner of Highlands County.

Every time visitors stay overnight, dine at a restaurant, shop downtown or attend an event, local businesses benefit.

Tourism supports:
🏨 Hotels and lodging
🍽️ Restaurants
🛍️ Retail stores
⛽ Gas stations
🎣 Outdoor recreation
🏁 Attractions and events

Visitor activity also generated nearly $34 million in state and local tax revenue during 2024.

Research shows tourism saves the average Highlands County household about $169 each year in local taxes that otherwise would need to be paid by residents.

Tourism isn't just good for visitors – it's an investment in a stronger local economy for everyone.

Tourism is about more than race week.

While Sebring International Raceway remains Highlands County's signature attraction, tourism happens all year long.

The Highlands County Tourist Development Council works to:
🏆 Recruit sporting events
🎉 Support community events
🤝 Strengthen partnerships throughout the county
🌿 Enhance visitor experiences
📍 Encourage visitors to stay longer and return again

The goal is simple: bring more visitors to Highlands County throughout the year so local businesses, employees and communities continue to benefit.

When tourism grows responsibly and strategically, it creates more economic activity, supports local businesses and strengthens the quality of life that makes Highlands County a great place to live, work and visit.
