About Event Management
GoConqr OriginalWhat the page covers
The resources follow an event from first idea to final review. Conceptualising an event starts with purpose, mission statement, aims and objectives. The Elements of events flashcards then run through staging, pricing, positioning, types of events, theme, site selection and layout, and the people and kit that fill a venue.
Where to start
Begin with the basics, then move to the detail:
- Flip through Elements of events to learn the vocabulary.
- Read the Conceptualising an event mind map to see how an event concept is built.
- Open the slides on Theming & Staging, Logistics and Risk & Crisis Management. They cover themes, ticketing and transport, and areas of risk such as alcohol management.
- Finish with the Event Measurement mind map, which asks why measuring an event is harder than it looks.
Case studies to learn from
Real events make the ideas easier to remember. There are mind maps on Sziget Festival, Oktoberfest, Tomorrowland, New York Fashion Week and Notting Hill Carnival, plus several on Glastonbury Festival in 2014. The Oktoberfest map breaks the event down by host community, suppliers, security, media and sponsors. The Impacts of Mega Events flashcards compare local, major and hallmark events.
Using quizzes and maps together
Read a mind map first, then test yourself. The Eventscape Quiz and Events in Hotel industry are good checks. If a question stumps you, go back to the matching map or flashcard deck and look again. The quizzes are few, so the flashcards are useful for extra recall practice.
Where this unit sits
Event Management belongs to the Food, Beverage and Events strand of Tourism and hospitality. Its resources suit university students and professional candidates most, with some for school students, and teachers can use them as ready-made material. Choose one resource today, then try making a map of your own event.
Frequently asked questions
Which resource should I open first?
Start with the Elements of events flashcards. They cover staging, pricing, positioning, types of events, theme and site selection, so they give you the vocabulary. After that, the Conceptualising an event mind map shows how purpose, mission and objectives shape an event concept.
Which real events are covered?
There are mind maps on Sziget Festival, Oktoberfest, Tomorrowland, New York Fashion Week, Notting Hill Carnival and Glastonbury Festival, along with Festival De Cannes 2013 and the Seafood Music Festival. They let you compare how different events handle crowds, stakeholders and purpose.
Are there quizzes on this page?
Yes, there are 8 quizzes, including the Eventscape Quiz and one on events in the hotel industry. Use them after reading a mind map or going through flashcards, so you can see which topics need another look.
Are the resources free to use?
Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.
Who are these resources for?
Most are aimed at university students and professional candidates, with a smaller share for school students. Teachers can use the maps, slides and flashcards as ready-made material. No exams are named in the listed resources, so check them against your own course.
What if I can't find a topic I need?
Try nearby resources first. Risk, logistics, legal issues, sustainability and measuring socio-cultural impacts each have their own material. If something is still missing, you can build your own mind map or flashcards from your course notes.
