Events industry is susceptible to uncertainty and incidents that can directly impact the supply and demand of its discretionary products and services. Consumer experience for events as well as enterprises is more important than ever, as the sector has become globalised, reached maturity and became highly competitive. The pathway to success (or failure) lies on the overall satisfaction of participants, which heavily depends on perceived value; a concept that can be co-created or co-destroyed by the very interaction between all social actors and stakeholders involved (including customers and businesses, at the very least). Value creation or destruction is critical not just for traditional supply and demand, but also for an array of actors across value and distribution chains (including for example staff and intermediaries across the networks). Perspectives and research from different scientific fields and disciplines are welcome to assist with the better understanding of value co-creation and co-destruction in events.

This special issue welcomes theoretical, empirical, experimental, and case study research contributions. These contributions should clearly address the theoretical and practical implications of the research in reference. Both conceptual and empirical work are welcome. The proposed topics may include but are not limited to the following:

§  Competitiveness, sustainability and corporate social responsibility
§  Consumer behaviour, decision-making, expectations, experience and satisfaction
§  Cultural, heritage and planning and development studies
§  Demand-supply forecasting, and performance studies
§  Economics and finance
§  Emerging and innovative research methods and methodologies
§  Human resources, equality, diversity, and labour operations
§  Innovation, creativity and change management
§  IT, ICT, e-tourism, and emerging technologies
§  Marketing, advertising, branding and promotional activities
§  Mobilities
§  Policy, planning, and development
