Abstract

Traditional “physical events” would often come to mind immediately when people think of modes of event. Apart from the aforementioned event type, “virtual events” extensively took place during the COVID-19 pandemic. “Hybrid events” combine the advantages of actual and virtual events, thereby providing attendees with immersive experiences (Piccioni, 2023). At present, virtual and hybrid events appeal to professional global marketers. These innovative event experiences possibly attract global event audiences with lower costs and without the limitations of geography (Lekgau and Tichaawa, 2022), as well as being greener and markedly more sustainable based on the environmental, social, and governance (ESG) framework. These characteristics enable stakeholders to comprehend how organizations manage risks and opportunities in the presence of sustainability-related issues (Corporate Finance Institute, 2022). This book provides explanations on organizing virtual and hybrid events and analyzes the myths related to event issues that people hear, hold, or believe in but which are not based on facts. Moreover, the book presents extensive and innovative guidance for private and public institutions in addressing existing issues in tourism and event management. The book likewise aims to turn unforeseen difficulties into new opportunities in the post-COVID-19 pandemic period by using numerous actual case studies with practical recommendations.
