The Global Events Industry Size is predicted to be valued at $2,972.4 billion by 2031, surging from $863.2 billion in 2021, at a noteworthy CAGR of 13.7%.

Impact Analysis of COVID-19 on the Events Industry

The events industry experienced a negative impact amid the COVID-19 outbreak owing to travel bans, strict lockdowns, limitations on large gatherings, and social meetings. Many organizations instructed its employees to begin working from home, which led to a decline in corporate meetings, seminars, product exhibitions, and others. On another note, travel constraints and social distancing measures have further led to huge revenue losses and postponements or cancellations of events due to which many companies were forced to lay off some of its employees. For instance, The International Olympic Committee postponed the Olympic Games, which had been scheduled to begin in Tokyo in July 2020.

Various initiatives and technological advancements helped the event industry amidst the unprecedented pandemic. The adoption of online video conferencing platforms like Microsoft Teams, Zoom, and Skype have encouraged organizations to come up with various virtual events including music concerts, corporate events, seminars, exhibitions, online product demos, and others, thereby ensuring that such activities aren’t hampered.

Global Events Industry Analysis

The significant growth of the events industry is majorly attributed to an increase in sponsorships for events along with a growing number of business seminars, exhibitions, corporate events & conferences. Sponsorships in events by well-known brands increase rapidly as they are believed to give high return on investment (ROI), boost lead generation, increase website traffic, help in brand building, provide an opportunity to interact with the customers, build brand credibility, etc. For example, Coca-Cola, one of the leading soft drink brands, has a record of sponsoring numerous events including television shows such as American Idol, sports events such as the Olympics, and technological events such as Apple iTunes.

Shortage of budgets to organize events is the major growth restraint in the event industry. Overspending and not having a sponsor also hampers the events. Arranging an event is an expensive task, as it consists of various costs such as the cost of venue, food & catering cost, projectors, entertainment cost, and others. These factors are projected to impede the events industry growth during the forecast period.

Growing adoption of cutting-edge technologies such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) in the events industry, coupled with increasing acquisitions and collaboration among leading companies are foreseen to offer ample opportunities in the global events industry. The technological advancements that facilitate online booking, video conferences, smartphone apps, that gained popularity during the pandemic are further estimated to offer excellent opportunities.
