Tiivistelmä
The aim of this thesis was to investigate the major impacts of events on the residents of the Tampere region. The research focused on how the locals perceived various events and recommended ways to enhance their impacts. The participants were also asked to share their vision of Tampere as an event city.
As part of this thesis, a comprehensive survey was carried out to gather relevant data. The survey was conducted using a well-designed theoretical framework that aimed to recognise and understand the impacts under investigation. The survey results were then analysed in detail, and the findings were discussed in the final stage of the thesis. This process helped to gain a deeper insight into the topic and provided valuable information for future research.
The motivation behind conducting this thesis was to better understand the effects of
Tampere's surge in popularity as Finland's go-to destination for events. While there has been a considerable amount of research on the impacts on event organisers and other stakeholders, the available data on the impact of these events on the local population is insufficient. This study aims to fill that gap by providing a more detailed analysis of how locals are affected by the events that take place in Tampere.
