Monitoring the impact of an event is crucial to understanding the economic, social, and environmental benefits generated and to evaluate the success of the event and plan future initiatives to improve the destination's attractiveness.
The Importance of Monitoring Event Impact

Monitoring the social impact helps understand how events influence residents' quality of life, improve social relationships, and enhance collective well-being.

Monitoring pollution levels, the use of natural resources, and the ecological footprint helps develop eco-sustainable practices for future events.
