This textbook provides students with an essential introduction
to the theoretical underpinnings and practicalities of managing the
marketing of events. As a strong emerging industry, events are now
contributing significantly to economies around the world and
particularly within the UK. In order to market events effectively
it is vital to consider marketing of events from the organiser s
perspective and link it to those of the consumers attending events.
As such, this is the first book on the topic which reflects the
unique characteristics of marketing in the Events industry by
exploring both sides of the marketing coin the supply and the
demand in the specific context of events.
The book begins by defining events and the implications this has
for events marketing. It then moves on to explore the event
marketing landscape before discussing the consumer experience of
and involvement with event marketing. Finally it focuses on the
strategies and tactics employed to manage the marketing activities
related to events, proposing a shift away from dominant Marketing
Mix paradigm to a more consumer focussed and integrated approach.
Offering comprehensive coverage the title introduces the reader to
core principles as well as current developments such as e
marketing, social media, sponsorship and PR and integrates
practical examples from around the world to show the application of
theory. Learning objectives, chapter summaries, discussion
questions and annotated further reading lists aid navigation
throughout the book, spur critical thinking and further students
knowledge.
This accessible and comprehensive account of Events Marketing
and Management is essential reading for all students and future
managers.
