Abstract

The Events Management sector has been a new fast-growing trend that links tourism, business, and leisure together (Getz, 1997). Traditionally, all events were mainly focused on financial benefits. However, the recent trend reflects a broader vision based on sustainable (social, cultural, envi- ronmental and economic) issues. The term ‘Green Events’ became a new trend in events; usually sponsored and organized by local authorities that try to educate visitors and the local community towards more sustainable behaviours through the integration of sustainable tools during the plan- ning, organisation, and management processes to reduce potential adverse effects resulting from the limited focus on the financial objectives.
