This subject provides an overview of the events sector, along with the functions and impacts that events have from the perspective of various groups and organisations within a society. Additionally, it examines the various external environments that impact upon, or are impacted by, events. Key tools that can be employed in assessing event impacts (such as cost-benefit analysis) are also reviewed. Issues associated with public policy and events, and the linkage between events and regional/urban development, and sustainable development are examined, often through case studies.
