The Event Management Conference (EMC) aims to delve into the most pressing societal and economic issues associated with event studies, whether that’s past, present, or future. EMC welcomes those studying various types of events, in different settings, and across a wide range of disciplines, and the various contributions we seek to include – from research talks, fireside chats, roundtable discussions, stimulating debates to compelling keynote speaker presentations, and more!

Abstracts and papers will be categorized by topic(s) and may include, but are not limited to, the following areas of sport and/or entertainment: economics and finance; public funding for venues; marketing, advertising and promotion; corporate sponsorship; ticketing and guest services; facility management; event management and production; information technology; legal issues; risk management; entrepreneurship; diversity; sustainability; and philanthropy.

This joint conference aims to bring together scholars from around the world to present their research on the futures and legacies of major international sporting events, their role in the wider sporting and cultural fields, and their relationship to wider politics and society. In particular, the conference provides an opportunity to examine how we interact and engage with sporting events and their environments in a world that is still experiencing the pandemic, and how this might influence future events.

We cordially invite all academicians to submit sport business research proposals for consideration as either an oral (20 minute) or poster presentation, to the Annual Stadium Managers Association Seminar. A focus on Stadium Management is encouraged and can encompass a number of facets relating to stadium management, sponsorship, marketing, outsourcing, social media, etc.

We invite abstracts and papers across a range of disciplines (such as, but not limited to: Cultural Studies, Economics, History, Management, Politics, Sociology, Urban Studies, and Tourism) focusing on the inter-relationships amongst Brazil, mega-events, and urban transformation.

The annual Sport, Entertainment and Venues Tomorrow (SEVT) Conference will take place November 20-22 in Columbia, South Carolina.  The call for papers is here.  SEVT...
