Abstract
The chapter describes the different techniques that may be used to measure the short-term economic fallouts of cultural events and, in particular, of music and opera festivals. It tries to distinguish failsafe methods—which are unfortunately not always easy to use—from more doubtful ones, in particular contingent valuation and interviews—which lead to exaggerated evaluations. Examples are provided in each case. We also suggest a new and inexpensive method to evaluate the relative numbers of visitors (by country of origin), which does not suffer from the exaggerations provided by contingent valuation and interviews.
