Urban Events, Place Branding and Promotion
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-35439-5 (ISBN)
With a focus on urban locations, this book defines the scope and concept of place event marketing. It demonstrates that different kinds of events, for leisure and business, can be used to successfully develop, promote and brand different types of places. Individual chapters written by a variety of leading academics explore how various public and non-governmental institutions that deal with promotion and marketing communications of places can implement event marketing activities and how such institutions organize, co-organize and sponsor different events. The effects of event marketing activities on urban place promotion and branding are thoroughly explored through a variety of international empirical case studies.
This will be of great interest to upper-level students and researchers in events marketing and management, tourism and the broader field of urban geography. The concluding chapter also proposes future research directions.
Waldemar Cudny specializes in urban and tourism geography. He is a graduate of the department of geography at the University of Łódź (Poland), where he received his MA in geography, specialising in spatial economy and spatial urban planning (1999) and his PhD in socio-economic geography (2004). Currently he holds the position of associate professor at the Jan Kochanowski University in Kielce, Poland. Dr Cudny has conducted research on festivals and their impacts on cities, socio-economic transformation of post-socialist cities, urban tourism and car tourism. He has published several books on the role of festivals in the development of cities and ‘car tourism.’ In recent years, Dr Cudny has been conducting research on city marketing, city promotion and branding.
