Increasing concerns over climate and environmental change, the global economic and financial crisis and impacts on host communities, audiences, participants and destinations has reinforced the need for more sustainable approaches to events. Sustainability now features as part of the bid process for many mega-events, such as the Olympic Games, as well as significant regional and local events, where the event organisers are required by funding bodies and governments to generate broader outcomes for the locality. This book is the first to offer students a comprehensive introduction to the full range of issues and topics relevant to event sustainability including impacts, operating and policy environments, stimulating urban regeneration and creating lasting legacies, as well as practical knowledge on how to achieve a sustainable event. Taking a holistic approach drawing on multidisciplinary theory it offers insight into the economic, socio-cultural and environmental impacts and how these can be adapted or mitigated. Theory and practice are linked through integrated case studies based on a wide range of event types from mega events to community festivals to show impacts, best practice and how better sustainable practice can be achieved in the future. Learning objectives, discussion questions and further reading suggestions are included to aid understanding and further knowledge; additional resources for lecturers and students including power point slides, video and web links are available online. Events and Sustainability is essential reading for all events management students and future managers.

Sustainable Event Management Of Music Festivals written by Stephanie L. Stettler and has been published by this book supported file pdf, txt, epub, kindle and other format this book has been release on 2011 with Music festivals categories.
Sustainably managed music festivals have significant value and can provide a multitude of benefits to a healthy, sustainable and desirable society if their negative impacts are mitigated and positive impacts cultivated. To reach this great potential, sustainable event management of music festivals must become widely adopted and expanded as common practice. To drive this improvement of sustainable event management, there is a need to first understand the barriers and success factors event organizers face moving their music festivals toward sustainability. This study uses a research design of mixed quantitative-qualitative methods: a survey of thirty diverse music festival organizers across the United States and interviews with five selected survey participants. Research draws on pertinent literature from sustainability theory and practice, previous research on sustainable event management, existing strategies of sustainable events, and lessons from organizational change studies. Findings revealed seven key barriers and four success factors associated with sustainable event management of music festivals as well as three specific needs of event organizers to improve sustainable event management. With these findings, seven strategies are presented to help event organizers adopt and improve sustainable event management of music festivals. This study is significant because it fills an important gap in the academic literature on events and sustainability. Additionally, this study is immediately applicable to United States music festivals. The findings were drawn directly from the perspectives and experiences of event organizers, and the strategies are designed to be specifically applied to their sustainable event management work.

Bachelor Thesis from the year 2020 in the subject Environmental Sciences, grade: 1,2, University of Applied Sciences Saarbrücken (Fakultät Wirtschaftswissenschaften), language: English, abstract: This research analyses the extent to which sustainability at a festival can be managed and how desirable behaviour can be communicated and established. With decreasing profits through record sales, artists increasingly depend on live performances and touring. As it is common knowledge that big music festivals often harm the environment, visitors expect event organizers to comply with sustainable measures. Festival managers are, however, restricted in their implementation of eco-friendly practices, as an event is dependent on the interaction of many stakeholders. Music festivals offer a unique opportunity for event managers to attempt to influence attendee's behaviour to be more sustainable through their diversity and playfulness. By creating the appropriate framework, festival creators can shift a festival towards sustainability. To do that, they must understand their stakeholders' values, motivators, drivers, and barriers of greening an outdoor music festival. This paper is based on data derived from existing research and literature in the fields of event management, sustainability, sociology and behavioural research. It illustrates basic greening approaches along with the operational limits of event organizers.

The UK event industry alone brings in approximately £30 billion to the UK GDP and with that supports over half million full and part time jobs. With this steady incremental growth over a number of years, external issues have begun to shape and define the sector. With this change comes financial implication and organisational resistance, therefore it is vital to demystify the issue of sustainable events and allow organisations and attendees to engage, without feeling hindered by consumer pressure, European regulations and directives as well as specific industry environmental standards that have been introduced over the past 6 years. Sustainable Solutions for the Event Management Sector is a comprehensive text book that addresses the environmental issues, with solutions and examples of best practice that allow venues, event agencies, contractors and suppliers to move forward with confidence, and so maintain a vibrant and lucrative sector. Sustainable Solutions for the Event Management Sector presents a constructive discussion and unravels the complexity of the climate change agenda, via analysis of international case studies such as London 21012 Olympics, V Festival, Glastonbury amongst others, to create a set of actions and a clear toolkit for the for the sector to implement. It discusses the following and much more:* Typologies of events and the environmental impacts of each;* Climate change - its impact on the events sector and its position from a global, European, national and local perspective;* Planning and managing sustainable events, introducing the various sustainable standards and how to deal with waste management, the Clean air agenda, energy efficiency amongst others;* How to initiate change: capturing the competitive advantage and winning new contracts with the green credentials. * Links between sustainable and healthy campaigns and events such as the London 2012 Olympic Games. Written in a user friendly style, each chapter will have at least one event case study to explain and place the issues or issues in context. A must have text for all undergraduate and postgraduate students of event management and professionals looking to understand this vital area of the industry.
