Edited by Razaq Raj and James Musgrave from the UK Centre for Events Management at Leeds Metropolitan University, Event Management and Sustainability uses best practice case studies to illustrate sustainable management issues and practical considerations that managers need to apply, providing an essential reference for researchers and students in leisure and tourism. Sustainable management is an important consideration for businesses and organisations, and the enormous number of tourism events taking place requiring facilities, power, transport, people and much more makes sustainable event planning a considerable priority.
