Comparative analysis of the role of international events in the development of tourism and related sectors

International events, including sporting competitions, exhibitions, and conferences, play a significant role in the development of tourism and related sectors. These events not only generate short-term tourist flows but also have considerable impacts on the local economy, infrastructure, and social and cultural domains. This paper provides a comparative analysis of the effects of different types of international events on tourism and related sectors. The analysis indicates that sporting events primarily provide short-term tourist influx and infrastructure benefits, whereas exhibitions promote sustainable business tourism and professional networking. The findings highlight the importance of integrating economic, social, and cultural factors in event planning.
