Worlds 2024 (Aug 2024)

ReportedA public agency’s record. The impact figure is the agency’s own estimate.

What this is

The Hawaii Convention Center’s record of the 2024 World Championships: 10,000 attendees, 4,909 hotel room nights and $57.4 million of estimated economic impact.

How it’s built

  1. Read from a Hawaii Tourism Authority board handout listing convention bookings: “Pokemon World Championships 2024 10,000 4,909 $57.4M”.

What we assumed

Nothing. The figure is used as published.

Sanity check

The economic impact is the tourism authority’s estimate of visitor spending in Hawaii, not money the organiser received. The 10,000 sits below the organiser’s “more than 13,000”.

The values

  • Attendees: 10,000
  • Room nights: 4,909
  • Economic impact usd m: 57.4
