The book covers marketing for all types of events, including festivals, corporate and association events, and social functions, and a full chapter on digital Event Marketing covers all the latest e-marketing strategies. Case studies provide real-world examples of successful marketing efforts, while Discussion Questions for each chapter provide opportunities for further exploration of key concepts.
