Mega Sport Events: Ökonomische und sozio-ökonomische Aussagen

VOGT, Jürgen, Dr., Managing Director FahnenFleck GmbH & Co KG

Sport hat als Gut sui generis über alle Jahre der Entwicklung nichts von seiner Attraktivität verloren. Vielmehr hat Sport auf Grund seiner medialen Verfügbarkeit an ökonomischem Gehalt gewonnen, denn geringen Verbreitungskosten stehen enorme Einnahmemöglichkeiten gegenüber. Dieser Hebeleffekt kommt Veranstaltern und Athleten zugute. So ist die Sportbranche durchweg in allen Gesellschaften eine mehr oder weniger wachsende Branche. Das steht auch ursächlich dafür, dass sich Städte und Staaten verstärkt um die Ausrichtung sportlicher Großveranstaltungen – von Sport Mega Events – bemühen, gar in harten Wettbewerb um die Rechte der Organisation streiten.

VOSS, Kathrin, Dr., Institut für Politische Wissenschaft, Universität Hamburg

Es ist auch unbestritten, dass mit der Organisation von Sport Mega Events Chancen und Risiken für die jeweiligen Organisatoren verbunden sind, die einerseits als Legitimation für die Durchführung genutzt werden, die aber auch als Argumente gegen die Ausrichtung von Sportgroßveranstaltungen verwendet werden. Einkommens- und Beschäftigungseffekte, Aufbau städtischer und regionaler Infrastruktur, Stärkung des Tourismus, aber auch der Aufbau und die Stärkung der nationalen Identität werden als mögliche Effekte von Sportgroßveranstaltungen benannt. Mit unserem 8. Internationalen Hamburger Symposium zu „Sport und Wirtschaft“ greifen wir in einem Jahr der Mega Sport Events der besonderen Güteklasse, den Olympischen Spielen in Peking und der Fußball-Europameisterschaft in Österreich und der Schweiz, die mit solchen Veranstaltungen verbundene Problematik auf. Dabei wollen wir die einzelnen Fragen gezielt angehen und auch die Erfahrung aus anderen Regionen und Gesellschaften aufnehmen. Über 20 Referenten aus acht Ländern werden uns einen Einblick vermitteln, welche ökonomischen und sozio-ökonomischen Effekte sie mit Sportgroßveranstaltungen verbinden und belegen können. Gerade diese Erfahrung wird der Philosophie unserer Veranstaltungsreihe gerecht, bei der wir auf Erkenntnisgewinn für Politik und Wirtschaft setzen. Das 8. Internationale Hamburger Symposium zu „Sport und Wirtschaft“ findet in diesem Jahr in Verbindung mit dem Triathlon World Cup – auch einer Sportgroßveranstaltung – statt. Dank der Unterstützung der Sponsoren und Mitorganisatoren ist es auch in diesem Jahr möglich, das Programm reichhaltig zu gestalten. So haben wir der Handelskammer Hamburg als Mitorganisator zu danken, die den Rahmen für die Veranstaltung beisteuert, der Freien und Hansestadt Hamburg und der Universität, die in bewährter Weise zum Gelingen beitragen. Besonders ist der Hamburg Wasser zu danken, mit deren Unterstützung die Einladung von international ausgewiesenen Referenten möglich wurde. Ohne diese

Mega Sport Events: Economic and sozio-economic Statements

OLTMANNS, Jan, Universität Hamburg

Sport as a unique commodity lost nothing of its attractiveness over the development of the last years. On the contrary sport due to its medial availability increased its economic value – enormous income possibilities face small distribution costs. Organizers and athletes benefited from this effect. Therefore the sport industry is a more or less growing industry in all societies. The mentioned development of sport over the last years stands causally for the strengthened effort of cities and states for the hosting of sport mega events, accumulating in tough competitions over the hosting rights.

It is undisputed that chances and risks for the respective organizers are connected with the organization of sport mega events. These chances and risks are on the one hand used for legitimating the realisation of the events but are also on the other hand arguments against the hosting of sport mega event. Income and employment effects, the construction of urban and regional infrastructure, the strengthening of tourism or the constitution and strengthening of national identity are designated possible effects of sport mega events. With our 8th International Hamburg Symposium on “Sports and Economics” we will address the major problems and chances connected with sport mega events in a year which is characterized through sport mega events of the special grade like the Olympic Games in Beijing and the UEFA EURO 2008 (European Championship in soccer) in Austria and Switzerland. In doing so we want aim at the specific questions about the effects of sport mega events and also take up the experience from other regions and societies. Over 20 lectures from eight countries will give us an insight, which economic and socio-economic effects can be connected with sport mega events. The outlining of these experiences will highlight the philosophy of the symposium, which aims on gaining new insights for politics and economics. The 8th International Hamburg Symposium on „Sport and Economics“ is linked with the Triathlon World Cup – another sport mega event – this year. Owing to the support of the sponsors and supporters it is again possible to develop a comprehensive program. Therefore we have to thank the Chamber of Commerce Hamburg as a main supporter of the symposium for contributing the organisational framework of the symposium. We have to thank the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg and the University of Hamburg for contributing in the estab-

took place, being quickly transmitted over the most representative international stock markets (contagion effects). It is important to study the transmission of shocks among international stock markets for different reasons. Firstly, contagion may have deep implications for portfolio management, particularly in the processes of international diversification of risk. Secondly, there is a tendency for the integration of stock markets on a worldwide basis. This paper is particularly related to the study of the effects of a corruption episode, named CalcioCaos, on the performance of the stocks of European Football Clubs. It also contributes to the literature, about contagion, at two distinct levels. Firstly, it is a pioneer attempt to measure the effects of a corruption episode on the performance of the, so far, neglected stocks of European Football Clubs. Secondly, we attempt to explain the changes on stock prices of some clubs, which belong to the DJ STOXX Football Index, by performing a comparative analysis between two different time periods: before and after the CalcioCaos. A Cointegrated Vector Autoregressive (CVAR) approach is applied, in order to detect the cointegrating vectors and to forecast the behaviour of the endogenous variables. A dynamic analysis is also performed, by using the block exogeneity tests to check the existence of causality relations, under a Grangerian sense. Before the CalcioCaos, the results reveal the importance of two stocks, of leading European Football Clubs (those of the Juventus F.C. as well as of the Borussia Dortmund F.C.) for the explanation of the pricing of other stocks that integrate the above mentioned benchmark. After the CalcioCaos, the stock prices of the Juventus F. C. lost explanatory power, whereas other previously less influent stocks (such as: Roma AS and Porto F.C.), did now play an important role in explaining the pricing of European Football Clubs, under a cointegrated approach.

The Impact of Mega-Sporting Events on Stock Markets Katrin Gottschalk, Jedrzej Bialkowski, & Xi Li This paper examines the impact of international mega-sporting events on the stock markets of their host countries. In particular, we investigate four major types of mega sports events: Summer Olympic Games, Winter Olympic Games, FIFA World Cups and European Football Championships, starting in 1980. An event study methodology is applied to assess the stock market reaction around announcement, beginning and end dates of these mega sports events. Somewhat surprisingly, the empirical results indicate that there is no announcement date effect on the stock market of the winning bidder. This finding is robust for both mature and emerging markets. Moreover, whereas stock markets do not react in a predictable way to the opening of the event, there seems to be a significantly negative market response after the end of the mega-sporting event. In addition, we analyse the overall annual performance of the host countries’ stock markets over the year of the mega-sporting event. The study of annual returns shows that the equity markets in four countries performed exceptionally well in the year a particular mega sports event was hosted: Greece regarding the 2004 Summer Olympic Games, South Korea regarding the 2002 FIFA World Cup, Portugal regarding the 2004 European Football Championships and the United States regarding the 1996 Summer Olympic Games. Finally, a sector-level analysis for several emerging markets indicates that sectors like Consumer Goods (especially beverages, brewers and soft drinks) and Industrials (especially heavy construction, industrial goods and construction material) do have potential to outperform the market after the future host of a mega-sports event is announced.

Sport, Sport Events and the Chances for Urban Development

Until the beginning of the 80´s, financial crises were seen as events which happened in individual markets, without a systemic nature. For this reason, at that time, the possibility of transmission of shocks between countries or international stock markets deserved little attention. During the 90’s there have been changes, due to the occurrence of exogenous shocks, mainly originated from unpredictable terrorist attacks or corruption episodes. One of the most impressive characteristic of these crises was that related to the moment of their occurrence and of their intensity which did not seem to be related to the performance of stock markets. Furthermore, the negative effects associated with the instability caused by certain episodes, were not limited to the stocks where the exogenous shocks

European Sports Geography – Spatial Demand and Supply for Sports Gabriel Ahlfeldt & Arne Feddersen We estimate the spatial demand curve for professional team sport events on the basis of survey data and effective road-based travel times of spectators. According to our estimates, spatial demand halves every 16.5 km. More than 99% of aggregated demand is limited to a range of 110 km. These results point to a somewhat stronger spatial discount compared to our results for a European spatial wage relationship, which can be interpreted as a broad measure of regional integration in Europe. We aggregate sports capacity on the basis of the estimated spatial demand curve in order to assess the effective regional access to football stadium capacity. While the largest endowment in absolute terms exists in south England, Benelux and Rhine-Ruhr, our results suggest that these European core regions do not exhibit above average stadium capacities considering the large potential demand. Since the relationship between spatially aggregated capacity and population is much stronger than between population and capacity, we conclude that nut3 boundaries represent no insuperable barriers for fan-affiliations. Our results also suggest that sports geography is largely shaped by population distribution and that regional purchasing power does not represent a significant determinant. There is hardly any grave relative under provision with spots infrastructure, indicating that football enjoys a relatively large acceptance across Europe. However, for some countries there are also significant unobserved effects. While Portugal and UK, particularly driven by middle-west England and Scotland, have aboveaverage relative stadium capacities, with regard to density of population Poland, Netherlands and Germany have surprisingly low stadium capacities in professional football.

großveranstaltungen erfolgt differenziert nach verschiedenen Zielgruppen, ihren Beiträgen zur lokalen Wertschöpfung und der medialen Berichterstattung. Die Einteilung der Sportgroßveranstaltungen erfolgt in vier unterschiedliche Niveaus, um sowohl quantitative Daten zum Volumen als auch qualitative Daten zur Struktur zu bekommen. Im Einzelnen werden die Ergebnisse anhand der absoluten und gewichteten Anzahl der Sportgroßveranstaltungen sowie im Verhältnis zur Einwohnerzahl und zum Bruttoinlandsprodukt der jeweiligen Kommunen vorgestellt. Abschließend werden anhand der vorliegenden Ergebnisse Handlungsempfehlungen formuliert, die sich auf die weitere Entwicklung adäquater Organisationsstrukturen, der Entwicklung sporttouristischer Konzeptionen, der Evaluation von Sportgroßveranstaltungen und auf Empfehlungen zur Schwerpunktsetzung zukünftiger Sportgroßveranstaltungen beziehen. Die Empfehlungen werden vor dem sportpolitischen Hintergrund ausgesprochen, dass Sportgroßveranstaltungen die aus öffentlichen Mitteln (mit-) finanziert werden, sich nicht zwingend unter einem betriebs- und volkswirtschaftlichen Primat legitimieren müssen. Der öffentliche Anspruch an eine differenzierte und plurale Sportkultur sollte daher nicht zugunsten von ausschließlich „marktförmigen“ Veranstaltungen aufgegeben werden.

The Consumption Impact of Major Sports Events: Findings from Visitor Surveys on Four (World) Cups in Germany, 2005-2007 Holger Preuß & Markus Kurscheidt Given the considerable lack of solid evidence on the consumption of visitors to major sports events, the talk will present comprehensive survey findings from four (World) Cups recently hosted in Germany. A major aim of the underlying analysis is to reveal the differing individual features and composition of foreign versus domestic visitors in order to derive comparative insights on the driving factors of the consumption impact of major sports events in different institutional settings. Thereby a focus is set on the results of the Football World Cup 2006 which will then be compared to evidence from the other surveyed events. The data was collected among visitors by a random, double cluster sampling procedure (N=9,456 at FIFA World Cup). The questionnaire of 18 questions was available in five languages and also used for the smaller samples at the Confederations Cup 2005, the Field Hockey World Cup 2006, and the Team Handball World Cup 2007. Whereas ticket holders were surveyed in all cases, at the FIFA World Cup, the public viewing visitors without stadium tickets were interviewed as well. It was found that the key determinants of the significantly varying consumption effect of different visitor groups are, beyond socioeconomic and sociodemographic factors, in particular: (1) country of origin, (2) visiting public viewing sites (large organized fan celebrations with big TV screens) versus stadiums to watch the matches, (3) whether or not staying overnight, and (4) the intention of the visit (event visitor typology). Based on those findings, not only patterns of travel and consumption behaviour can be derived but also the aggregated economic impact induced by visitor spending (esp. income and employment effects as well as fiscal returns). The comparative results clearly confirm that the consumption impact depends strongly on the socioeconomic setting of the host nation or region and the event organization (qualification/draw of competitors, contest design, management efficiency etc.). This crucial insight is finally discussed in the light of existing critical evidence on major sports events, particularly regarding substitution and diversion effects which allegedly (fully) crowdout positive impacts.

Are We Willing to Pay Enough to ‘Back the Bid’? Valuing the Intangible Impacts of London’s Bid to Host the 2012 Summer Olympic Games Giles Atkinson, Susana Mourato, & Stefan Szymanski Using a contingent valuation survey, we provide an empirical test of the proposition that intangible impacts might justify hosting major sporting events, specifically the Summer Olympics, on cost-benefit grounds. Examples of such intangible impact might include the ‘feel-good’ factor and the sense of pride and shared memories of hosting a successful event. Moreover, these impacts might plausibly be enjoyed by households outside of the prospective host city. Respondents, drawn from London, Manchester and Glasgow, were asked for their willingness to pay (WTP) to host the 2012 Olympic Games in London on the basis of the intangible impacts that this event might provide. Annual mean WTP is £22, £12 and £11 per year (for 10 years) in these three UK cities respectively. Statistical analysis of WTP determinants reveals a range of plausible explanatory factors such as respondents’ degree of support for the bid. An illustrative total (UK) WTP for intangible impacts is in the region of £2 billion. Assessing the cost-benefits grounds for the bid, using these data, requires a prediction of the net public funding requirement, which is currently subject to (upward) revision. Nonetheless, given that economic impact studies typically produce negligible or even negative estimates of net benefits from hosting major sporting events or building sports facilities, we believe that constructing an argument in terms of willingness to pay represents a credible approach to this policy choice problem.

Mega-sporting Events as Experience Goods: Induced Civic Pride and Integration Malte Heyne, Wolfgang Maennig, & Bernd Süßmuth This paper investigates whether a nation’s contingent value of hosting a megaevent depends on past experience with implied public goods benefits for its residents. Applying data from an ex-ante and ex-post query based on contingent valuation methods, we use the FIFA World Cup 2006 as a natural experiment. The significant ex-post increase in valuation is shown to be due to adventitious citizens requiring an involving experience, rather than to an updating of a prior assessment. The World Cup finals were the first mega-event hosted by reunified Germany. We use this landmark event in German contemporary history to investigate how the integration of the two parts of Germany progressed after 17 years of reunification. We still find a profound difference in clear-sighted civic awareness of East and West German individuals. However, civic pride induced by collective experience can considerably accelerate the convergence of East Germans’ preferences towards those of West Germans, which Alesina and FuchsSchündeln (AER, 2007) recently calculated to take 20 to 40 years or one and a half generation.

to the construction of the Moses Mabhida stadium, one of the semi-final competition venues. The results from 50 completed interviews are examined. The data is in the process of being collected and a further 50 residents will be interviewed to make up a sample of 100 residents. Only residents residing in a radius of 2km away from the stadium venue will be targeted utilizing a systematically sampling approach. The findings reveal that there is considerable support and positive perceptions relating to South Africa’s (and Durban’s more specifically) hosting of the 2010 World Cup. However, there were several concerns raised in relation to the distribution of anticipated benefits and the impacts of the stadia on their lives. Additionally, the residents have high expectations linked to the event.

John C. Whitehead & Bruce K. Johnson The contingent valuation method (CVM) is a stated preference approach for measuring the benefits of public policy. A number of sports CVM studies have been conducted. Most of these suggest that public subsidies for stadiums, sports teams and even the 2012 Olympics do not pass a benefit-cost test. A CVM study of a major sporting event such as the Kentucky Derby, the Indianapolis 500, and the Masters golf tournament might yield much higher estimates of sports public goods than any studies thus far. As major events which help identify their host cities to the rest of the world, they may plausibly generate highly valuable civic pride benefits for local residents. The difficulty in designing a CVM study is in devising a plausible scenario in which the events might relocate. We first discuss a range of issues for which the contingent valuation method is an appropriate tool for benefits measurement within the context of sporting events. Compared to the revealed preference methods, the CVM and other stated preference methods clearly have advantages. Stated preference methods are most useful when an ex-ante benefit-cost analysis must consider policy proposals that are beyond the range of historical experience, stated preference methods are more flexible than the revealed preference methods, stated preference methods can be used to estimate non-use values and ex-ante willingness to pay under demand and supply uncertainty. Next, we discuss some challenging methodological issues in the context of benefit-cost analysis. These issues include the difference between hypothetical and actual behavior, validity and reliability, valuation of long-lived policy, valuation of multi-part policy, and the appropriate property rights. Aggregation issues, questions of standing and the geographic extent of the market are explored. Finally, we offer some conclusions, guidelines, and suggestions for future research that may lead to improvements in the application of contingent valuation of sports.

help foster national cohesion. This article explores the way in which large-scale sport events such as the FIFA world tournament can influence processes related to national identity construction. Through an analysis of the social effects of the 2006 finals held in Germany some prospects are raised for the 2010 World Cup. Empirical data show that the 2006 tournament did not contribute strongly to sustainable patriotism but it did have small effects in reducing xenophobia. Hereby it enhances a longer-established trend. Although there are cases of violence against foreigners in East Germany, xenophobia has been diminishing since the 1980s. National pride, too, has been growing since then. In South African national pride is much stronger, although it is diminishing within the white population. However, national identity is cross-cut by stronger racial identities. In spite of the implementation of certain policies by the national government, xenophobia against African foreigners is becoming a latent phenomenon. Major sport events can be used to promote values such as team spirit and discipline, but also at a wider level, tolerance, multiculturalism and solidarity.

Resident and Perceptions of the 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup Stadia Development in Durban, South Africa: Some Preliminary Findings Urmilla Bob & Kamilla Swart Mega sport events have increasingly become highly sought after commodities for both developed and some developing countries (including South Africa) as they move towards event-driven economies. The 2010 Federation Internationale de Football (FIFA) World Cup to be hosted in South Africa is expected to provide an opportunity to further the country’s objectives of using sporting events to signal international recognition and promote socio-economic development. Ritchie and Adair (2004) state that while the majority of research and scholarship in the field of sport tourism has been conducted on sport tourism events, especially economic impacts, little research has been conducted on the social impacts of these kinds of events. In particular, residents’ perceptions are overlooked although they are often directly impacted by sport events, especially when they reside in close proximity to the event location. Fredline (2004) asserts that successful events are underpinned by community support. Swart and Bob (2007) show that generally the actual voices of local residents are absent in relation to debates pertaining to this event and concomitant anticipated benefits. One of the tangible, long-term legacies associated with hosting the FIFA World Cup is the potential infrastructural benefits. In particular stadia development (both upgrading of existing stadia and new stadia) are key features of South Africa’s 2010 sport infrastructural improvement and expansion programme. There have been massive investments into stadia development. This study looks specifically at resident perceptions of the 2010 FIFA World Cup and stadia development in Durban, South Africa by critically examining resident concerns and issues related

Sport, mega-events and urban tourism: exploring the patterns, constraints and prospects of the 2010 FIFA World Cup Scarlett Cornelissen As part of the increased importance that has become attached to the hosting of the world’s major sport or hallmark events such as the Olympic Games or the World Cup of the Fédération Internationale de Football (FIFA), and amid the various claims regarding purported economic effects, tourism development is usually singled out as one of the more significant and longer lasting impacts to be yielded from a successful tournament. This is usually presented in three sets of arguments; first, that increased exposure afforded by media coverage before and during an event will raise the tourist visibility of a host location, an effect which could extend well beyond the duration of the event; second that the event itself will provoke a growth in the usual number of tourist visitors, with attendant increases in tourist spending; and third, that anticipatory planning toward the hosting of an event, be it of an infrastructural, economic or social nature, could have offsets by which the wider tourism sector could draw long term gain. As with all other aspects of pre-event estimation and given the broader context of controversy surrounding impact and costs projections of major sport events, however, the tourism dimensions and spin-offs of such events have often also tended to be subject to vague approximations. By way of assessing the likely tourism impacts of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and set against the broader complexities surrounding research on major sport events and their tourism dimensions, this paper takes stock of the principal elements underpinning sport mega-events and tourism development; reviews the experiences of other recent hosts of the FIFA finals; and appraises the policies and strategies for the 2010 tournament. The focus is on the emerging plans toward tourism development arising in national and urban contexts in South Africa, and the prospects and implications of such developments for urban tourism legacies beyond the 2010 finals.

Mega Sport events and National Identity: FIFA World Cup in Germany 2006 and South Africa 2010 Norbert Kersting Big sport events may strengthen negative nationalism or alternatively fuel positive patriotism. The 2006 FIFA World Cup held in Germany enabled Germans to express certain types of identities. Given Germany’s history, there is the question whether this was accompanied with xenophobia. In South Africa, the 2010 FIFA World Cup is, in part held to transcend deeply entrenched social cleavages and to

Abstracts Assessing the Economic Impact of Mega Sport Events: Some Observations Robert Baade Cities vigorously compete to host sports mega-events because they perceive that doing so will enhance their image and stimulate their economies. International sporting events require substantial expenditures on infrastructure, organization and security and critically depend, therefore, on public subsidization. The ability of event promoters to secure public funds often depends on convincing a sometimes skeptical public that hosting the event generates economic profit. A motive for exaggerating the impact of a mega-event clearly exists. My examination of the economic impact of mega-events, as well as the research of other independent scholars, suggest that the true economic benefits are typically far less than the numbers touted by promoters. Why? The purpose of this presentation will be to offer some observations about the factors responsible for overestimating the economic impact of mega-events, and the difficulties encountered in trying to provide a reliable measure of the economic impact.

The Impact of Major Sporting Events on Happiness Stefan Szymanski & Georgios Kavetsos Proclaimed benefits of hosting major sporting events have received substantial criticism by academic economists and have been shown to be negligible, at best. The aim of this paper is to formally examine the existence of another potential impact, the “feelgood” factor. We achieve this by combining the fields of the economics of happiness and sport. Using data on self-reported life satisfaction for twelve European countries we test the impact national success on, and hosting of the Olympic Games, the FIFA World Cup and the European Championship have on happiness. Although there is some selective evidence on the impact of athletic success, we find that hosting football events is associated with the “feelgood” factor.

Abstracts Assessing the Economic Impact of Mega Sport Events: Some Observations Robert Baade Cities vigorously compete to host sports mega-events because they perceive that doing so will enhance their image and stimulate their economies. International sporting events require substantial expenditures on infrastructure, organization and security and critically depend, therefore, on public subsidization. The ability of event promoters to secure public funds often depends on convincing a sometimes skeptical public that hosting the event generates economic profit. A motive for exaggerating the impact of a mega-event clearly exists. My examination of the economic impact of mega-events, as well as the research of other independent scholars, suggest that the true economic benefits are typically far less than the numbers touted by promoters. Why? The purpose of this presentation will be to offer some observations about the factors responsible for overestimating the economic impact of mega-events, and the difficulties encountered in trying to provide a reliable measure of the economic impact.

The Impact of Major Sporting Events on Happiness Stefan Szymanski & Georgios Kavetsos Proclaimed benefits of hosting major sporting events have received substantial criticism by academic economists and have been shown to be negligible, at best. The aim of this paper is to formally examine the existence of another potential impact, the “feelgood” factor. We achieve this by combining the fields of the economics of happiness and sport. Using data on self-reported life satisfaction for twelve European countries we test the impact national success on, and hosting of the Olympic Games, the FIFA World Cup and the European Championship have on happiness. Although there is some selective evidence on the impact of athletic success, we find that hosting football events is associated with the “feelgood” factor.

Sport, mega-events and urban tourism: exploring the patterns, constraints and prospects of the 2010 FIFA World Cup Scarlett Cornelissen As part of the increased importance that has become attached to the hosting of the world’s major sport or hallmark events such as the Olympic Games or the World Cup of the Fédération Internationale de Football (FIFA), and amid the various claims regarding purported economic effects, tourism development is usually singled out as one of the more significant and longer lasting impacts to be yielded from a successful tournament. This is usually presented in three sets of arguments; first, that increased exposure afforded by media coverage before and during an event will raise the tourist visibility of a host location, an effect which could extend well beyond the duration of the event; second that the event itself will provoke a growth in the usual number of tourist visitors, with attendant increases in tourist spending; and third, that anticipatory planning toward the hosting of an event, be it of an infrastructural, economic or social nature, could have offsets by which the wider tourism sector could draw long term gain. As with all other aspects of pre-event estimation and given the broader context of controversy surrounding impact and costs projections of major sport events, however, the tourism dimensions and spin-offs of such events have often also tended to be subject to vague approximations. By way of assessing the likely tourism impacts of the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and set against the broader complexities surrounding research on major sport events and their tourism dimensions, this paper takes stock of the principal elements underpinning sport mega-events and tourism development; reviews the experiences of other recent hosts of the FIFA finals; and appraises the policies and strategies for the 2010 tournament. The focus is on the emerging plans toward tourism development arising in national and urban contexts in South Africa, and the prospects and implications of such developments for urban tourism legacies beyond the 2010 finals.

Mega Sport events and National Identity: FIFA World Cup in Germany 2006 and South Africa 2010 Norbert Kersting Big sport events may strengthen negative nationalism or alternatively fuel positive patriotism. The 2006 FIFA World Cup held in Germany enabled Germans to express certain types of identities. Given Germany’s history, there is the question whether this was accompanied with xenophobia. In South Africa, the 2010 FIFA World Cup is, in part held to transcend deeply entrenched social cleavages and to

help foster national cohesion. This article explores the way in which large-scale sport events such as the FIFA world tournament can influence processes related to national identity construction. Through an analysis of the social effects of the 2006 finals held in Germany some prospects are raised for the 2010 World Cup. Empirical data show that the 2006 tournament did not contribute strongly to sustainable patriotism but it did have small effects in reducing xenophobia. Hereby it enhances a longer-established trend. Although there are cases of violence against foreigners in East Germany, xenophobia has been diminishing since the 1980s. National pride, too, has been growing since then. In South African national pride is much stronger, although it is diminishing within the white population. However, national identity is cross-cut by stronger racial identities. In spite of the implementation of certain policies by the national government, xenophobia against African foreigners is becoming a latent phenomenon. Major sport events can be used to promote values such as team spirit and discipline, but also at a wider level, tolerance, multiculturalism and solidarity.

Resident and Perceptions of the 2010 FIFA Soccer World Cup Stadia Development in Durban, South Africa: Some Preliminary Findings Urmilla Bob & Kamilla Swart Mega sport events have increasingly become highly sought after commodities for both developed and some developing countries (including South Africa) as they move towards event-driven economies. The 2010 Federation Internationale de Football (FIFA) World Cup to be hosted in South Africa is expected to provide an opportunity to further the country’s objectives of using sporting events to signal international recognition and promote socio-economic development. Ritchie and Adair (2004) state that while the majority of research and scholarship in the field of sport tourism has been conducted on sport tourism events, especially economic impacts, little research has been conducted on the social impacts of these kinds of events. In particular, residents’ perceptions are overlooked although they are often directly impacted by sport events, especially when they reside in close proximity to the event location. Fredline (2004) asserts that successful events are underpinned by community support. Swart and Bob (2007) show that generally the actual voices of local residents are absent in relation to debates pertaining to this event and concomitant anticipated benefits. One of the tangible, long-term legacies associated with hosting the FIFA World Cup is the potential infrastructural benefits. In particular stadia development (both upgrading of existing stadia and new stadia) are key features of South Africa’s 2010 sport infrastructural improvement and expansion programme. There have been massive investments into stadia development. This study looks specifically at resident perceptions of the 2010 FIFA World Cup and stadia development in Durban, South Africa by critically examining resident concerns and issues related

to the construction of the Moses Mabhida stadium, one of the semi-final competition venues. The results from 50 completed interviews are examined. The data is in the process of being collected and a further 50 residents will be interviewed to make up a sample of 100 residents. Only residents residing in a radius of 2km away from the stadium venue will be targeted utilizing a systematically sampling approach. The findings reveal that there is considerable support and positive perceptions relating to South Africa’s (and Durban’s more specifically) hosting of the 2010 World Cup. However, there were several concerns raised in relation to the distribution of anticipated benefits and the impacts of the stadia on their lives. Additionally, the residents have high expectations linked to the event.

John C. Whitehead & Bruce K. Johnson The contingent valuation method (CVM) is a stated preference approach for measuring the benefits of public policy. A number of sports CVM studies have been conducted. Most of these suggest that public subsidies for stadiums, sports teams and even the 2012 Olympics do not pass a benefit-cost test. A CVM study of a major sporting event such as the Kentucky Derby, the Indianapolis 500, and the Masters golf tournament might yield much higher estimates of sports public goods than any studies thus far. As major events which help identify their host cities to the rest of the world, they may plausibly generate highly valuable civic pride benefits for local residents. The difficulty in designing a CVM study is in devising a plausible scenario in which the events might relocate. We first discuss a range of issues for which the contingent valuation method is an appropriate tool for benefits measurement within the context of sporting events. Compared to the revealed preference methods, the CVM and other stated preference methods clearly have advantages. Stated preference methods are most useful when an ex-ante benefit-cost analysis must consider policy proposals that are beyond the range of historical experience, stated preference methods are more flexible than the revealed preference methods, stated preference methods can be used to estimate non-use values and ex-ante willingness to pay under demand and supply uncertainty. Next, we discuss some challenging methodological issues in the context of benefit-cost analysis. These issues include the difference between hypothetical and actual behavior, validity and reliability, valuation of long-lived policy, valuation of multi-part policy, and the appropriate property rights. Aggregation issues, questions of standing and the geographic extent of the market are explored. Finally, we offer some conclusions, guidelines, and suggestions for future research that may lead to improvements in the application of contingent valuation of sports.

Are We Willing to Pay Enough to ‘Back the Bid’? Valuing the Intangible Impacts of London’s Bid to Host the 2012 Summer Olympic Games Giles Atkinson, Susana Mourato, & Stefan Szymanski Using a contingent valuation survey, we provide an empirical test of the proposition that intangible impacts might justify hosting major sporting events, specifically the Summer Olympics, on cost-benefit grounds. Examples of such intangible impact might include the ‘feel-good’ factor and the sense of pride and shared memories of hosting a successful event. Moreover, these impacts might plausibly be enjoyed by households outside of the prospective host city. Respondents, drawn from London, Manchester and Glasgow, were asked for their willingness to pay (WTP) to host the 2012 Olympic Games in London on the basis of the intangible impacts that this event might provide. Annual mean WTP is £22, £12 and £11 per year (for 10 years) in these three UK cities respectively. Statistical analysis of WTP determinants reveals a range of plausible explanatory factors such as respondents’ degree of support for the bid. An illustrative total (UK) WTP for intangible impacts is in the region of £2 billion. Assessing the cost-benefits grounds for the bid, using these data, requires a prediction of the net public funding requirement, which is currently subject to (upward) revision. Nonetheless, given that economic impact studies typically produce negligible or even negative estimates of net benefits from hosting major sporting events or building sports facilities, we believe that constructing an argument in terms of willingness to pay represents a credible approach to this policy choice problem.

Mega-sporting Events as Experience Goods: Induced Civic Pride and Integration Malte Heyne, Wolfgang Maennig, & Bernd Süßmuth This paper investigates whether a nation’s contingent value of hosting a megaevent depends on past experience with implied public goods benefits for its residents. Applying data from an ex-ante and ex-post query based on contingent valuation methods, we use the FIFA World Cup 2006 as a natural experiment. The significant ex-post increase in valuation is shown to be due to adventitious citizens requiring an involving experience, rather than to an updating of a prior assessment. The World Cup finals were the first mega-event hosted by reunified Germany. We use this landmark event in German contemporary history to investigate how the integration of the two parts of Germany progressed after 17 years of reunification. We still find a profound difference in clear-sighted civic awareness of East and West German individuals. However, civic pride induced by collective experience can considerably accelerate the convergence of East Germans’ preferences towards those of West Germans, which Alesina and FuchsSchündeln (AER, 2007) recently calculated to take 20 to 40 years or one and a half generation.

The Consumption Impact of Major Sports Events: Findings from Visitor Surveys on Four (World) Cups in Germany, 2005-2007 Holger Preuß & Markus Kurscheidt Given the considerable lack of solid evidence on the consumption of visitors to major sports events, the talk will present comprehensive survey findings from four (World) Cups recently hosted in Germany. A major aim of the underlying analysis is to reveal the differing individual features and composition of foreign versus domestic visitors in order to derive comparative insights on the driving factors of the consumption impact of major sports events in different institutional settings. Thereby a focus is set on the results of the Football World Cup 2006 which will then be compared to evidence from the other surveyed events. The data was collected among visitors by a random, double cluster sampling procedure (N=9,456 at FIFA World Cup). The questionnaire of 18 questions was available in five languages and also used for the smaller samples at the Confederations Cup 2005, the Field Hockey World Cup 2006, and the Team Handball World Cup 2007. Whereas ticket holders were surveyed in all cases, at the FIFA World Cup, the public viewing visitors without stadium tickets were interviewed as well. It was found that the key determinants of the significantly varying consumption effect of different visitor groups are, beyond socioeconomic and sociodemographic factors, in particular: (1) country of origin, (2) visiting public viewing sites (large organized fan celebrations with big TV screens) versus stadiums to watch the matches, (3) whether or not staying overnight, and (4) the intention of the visit (event visitor typology). Based on those findings, not only patterns of travel and consumption behaviour can be derived but also the aggregated economic impact induced by visitor spending (esp. income and employment effects as well as fiscal returns). The comparative results clearly confirm that the consumption impact depends strongly on the socioeconomic setting of the host nation or region and the event organization (qualification/draw of competitors, contest design, management efficiency etc.). This crucial insight is finally discussed in the light of existing critical evidence on major sports events, particularly regarding substitution and diversion effects which allegedly (fully) crowdout positive impacts.

großveranstaltungen erfolgt differenziert nach verschiedenen Zielgruppen, ihren Beiträgen zur lokalen Wertschöpfung und der medialen Berichterstattung. Die Einteilung der Sportgroßveranstaltungen erfolgt in vier unterschiedliche Niveaus, um sowohl quantitative Daten zum Volumen als auch qualitative Daten zur Struktur zu bekommen. Im Einzelnen werden die Ergebnisse anhand der absoluten und gewichteten Anzahl der Sportgroßveranstaltungen sowie im Verhältnis zur Einwohnerzahl und zum Bruttoinlandsprodukt der jeweiligen Kommunen vorgestellt. Abschließend werden anhand der vorliegenden Ergebnisse Handlungsempfehlungen formuliert, die sich auf die weitere Entwicklung adäquater Organisationsstrukturen, der Entwicklung sporttouristischer Konzeptionen, der Evaluation von Sportgroßveranstaltungen und auf Empfehlungen zur Schwerpunktsetzung zukünftiger Sportgroßveranstaltungen beziehen. Die Empfehlungen werden vor dem sportpolitischen Hintergrund ausgesprochen, dass Sportgroßveranstaltungen die aus öffentlichen Mitteln (mit-) finanziert werden, sich nicht zwingend unter einem betriebs- und volkswirtschaftlichen Primat legitimieren müssen. Der öffentliche Anspruch an eine differenzierte und plurale Sportkultur sollte daher nicht zugunsten von ausschließlich „marktförmigen“ Veranstaltungen aufgegeben werden.

This contribution provides an ex post analysis of the economic impacts of the two most recent single-country World Cups (WCs), Germany 2006 and France 1998. Based on macroeconomic indicators, the experiences of these WCs appear to be in line with existing empirical research on large sporting events and sports stadiums, which have rarely identified significant net economic benefits. Of more significance are the novelty effects of the stadiums, and “intangible effects” such as the image effect for the host nations and the feel-good effect for the population. The experiences of former WCs provide a context for analysing the scope and limits for South Africa 2010. Like previous host countries, South Africa might have to cope with difficulties such as the under-use of most WCstadiums in the aftermath of the tournament. On the other hand, this paper examines a handful of arguments why South Africa might realise larger economic benefits than former hosts of WCs, such as the absence of the northern-style ‘couch potato effect’ and the absence of negative crowding-out effects on regular tourism. Furthermore, the relative scarcity of sport arenas in South Africa might induce a larger positive effect than in countries with ample provision of sports facilities. In addition, against the backdrop of continuous declines in South African poverty since 2001, the novelty effect of new stadiums might be of special importance. Finally, the innovative South African ambitions to use stadiums with ‘signature architecture’ as a tool for urban development or to generate external effects for the regional economy are different from former WCs.

Universiade and Urban Development Sinisa Jasnic As sport rapidly takes over the global market we take a ‘time out’ to see why more and more countries bid to host international sports events. With worldwide corporations and brands setting aside increasing budgets for sponsoring competitions, countries are quickly recognizing the importance and potentials of such events for developing and strengthening their positions among neighboring markets. Serbia has a long tradition of organizing sports competitions. Universiade 2009 will be the largest event this country has ever organized and one for which the Serbian government has put the highest fee so far. This fact inevitably drives to conclusion that countries and their businesses benefit immensely from sport and sports competitions, a statement undoubtedly supported by the fact that the

Sport Facilities as a Catalyst for Urban Regeneration – The Sheffield Experience Peter Price This presentation will attempt to demonstrate how Sheffield has successfully used the 1991 Universiade and its investment in new Sport and Cultural facilities as a catalyst for economic and social regeneration. The presentation will begin by describing the city pre 1972 as a successful thriving industrial city with an unemployment rate of below 3%. A city whose prosperity grew out of 3 basic industries; cutlery, steel and manufacturing and whilst it had major environmental problems had a fairly contented populous of over half a million people. The presentation will then go on to describe the devastation that hit the City in the late 1970's early 80's when over 50,000 jobs were lost and the unemployment rate rose to 15.2% as a result of the collapse of the steel industry as a large employer. The conflict between central and local government, the dereliction left and the loss of civic pride will be described in some detail. The second part of the presentation will cover the decision to use sport as a catalyst for regeneration and a brief look at the experience of some USA cities. It will continue with the decision to bid to host the Universiade and to build 7 world quality sports facilities and a cultural theatre at a capital cost of £150 million. The deficit of over £10million incurred on the Universiade and the conflicts that followed will also be covered. The final part of the presentation will cover the progress of the City. Since 1991 the city has hosted over 500 national and international events, having a major economic impact through secondary spend and having attracted other major private and public capital investment in the City including The English Institute for Sport, the National Ice Dance Centre, many new hotels, Several National Sporting Governing bodies have relocated to Sheffield along with many Elite training squads. The City was awarded the title of Britain's first National City of Sport in 1993 In 2005 a partnership was formed called SportsPulse, a unique public-private partnership tasked with developing the sports business sector of South Yorkshire its vision being to establish the region as one of the most, advanced and attractive environments for sport business in the UK It has brought

European Sports Geography – Spatial Demand and Supply for Sports Gabriel Ahlfeldt & Arne Feddersen We estimate the spatial demand curve for professional team sport events on the basis of survey data and effective road-based travel times of spectators. According to our estimates, spatial demand halves every 16.5 km. More than 99% of aggregated demand is limited to a range of 110 km. These results point to a somewhat stronger spatial discount compared to our results for a European spatial wage relationship, which can be interpreted as a broad measure of regional integration in Europe. We aggregate sports capacity on the basis of the estimated spatial demand curve in order to assess the effective regional access to football stadium capacity. While the largest endowment in absolute terms exists in south England, Benelux and Rhine-Ruhr, our results suggest that these European core regions do not exhibit above average stadium capacities considering the large potential demand. Since the relationship between spatially aggregated capacity and population is much stronger than between population and capacity, we conclude that nut3 boundaries represent no insuperable barriers for fan-affiliations. Our results also suggest that sports geography is largely shaped by population distribution and that regional purchasing power does not represent a significant determinant. There is hardly any grave relative under provision with spots infrastructure, indicating that football enjoys a relatively large acceptance across Europe. However, for some countries there are also significant unobserved effects. While Portugal and UK, particularly driven by middle-west England and Scotland, have aboveaverage relative stadium capacities, with regard to density of population Poland, Netherlands and Germany have surprisingly low stadium capacities in professional football.

The Impact of Mega-Sporting Events on Stock Markets Katrin Gottschalk, Jedrzej Bialkowski, & Xi Li This paper examines the impact of international mega-sporting events on the stock markets of their host countries. In particular, we investigate four major types of mega sports events: Summer Olympic Games, Winter Olympic Games, FIFA World Cups and European Football Championships, starting in 1980. An event study methodology is applied to assess the stock market reaction around announcement, beginning and end dates of these mega sports events. Somewhat surprisingly, the empirical results indicate that there is no announcement date effect on the stock market of the winning bidder. This finding is robust for both mature and emerging markets. Moreover, whereas stock markets do not react in a predictable way to the opening of the event, there seems to be a significantly negative market response after the end of the mega-sporting event. In addition, we analyse the overall annual performance of the host countries’ stock markets over the year of the mega-sporting event. The study of annual returns shows that the equity markets in four countries performed exceptionally well in the year a particular mega sports event was hosted: Greece regarding the 2004 Summer Olympic Games, South Korea regarding the 2002 FIFA World Cup, Portugal regarding the 2004 European Football Championships and the United States regarding the 1996 Summer Olympic Games. Finally, a sector-level analysis for several emerging markets indicates that sectors like Consumer Goods (especially beverages, brewers and soft drinks) and Industrials (especially heavy construction, industrial goods and construction material) do have potential to outperform the market after the future host of a mega-sports event is announced.

Sport, Sport Events and the Chances for Urban Development

Until the beginning of the 80´s, financial crises were seen as events which happened in individual markets, without a systemic nature. For this reason, at that time, the possibility of transmission of shocks between countries or international stock markets deserved little attention. During the 90’s there have been changes, due to the occurrence of exogenous shocks, mainly originated from unpredictable terrorist attacks or corruption episodes. One of the most impressive characteristic of these crises was that related to the moment of their occurrence and of their intensity which did not seem to be related to the performance of stock markets. Furthermore, the negative effects associated with the instability caused by certain episodes, were not limited to the stocks where the exogenous shocks

took place, being quickly transmitted over the most representative international stock markets (contagion effects). It is important to study the transmission of shocks among international stock markets for different reasons. Firstly, contagion may have deep implications for portfolio management, particularly in the processes of international diversification of risk. Secondly, there is a tendency for the integration of stock markets on a worldwide basis. This paper is particularly related to the study of the effects of a corruption episode, named CalcioCaos, on the performance of the stocks of European Football Clubs. It also contributes to the literature, about contagion, at two distinct levels. Firstly, it is a pioneer attempt to measure the effects of a corruption episode on the performance of the, so far, neglected stocks of European Football Clubs. Secondly, we attempt to explain the changes on stock prices of some clubs, which belong to the DJ STOXX Football Index, by performing a comparative analysis between two different time periods: before and after the CalcioCaos. A Cointegrated Vector Autoregressive (CVAR) approach is applied, in order to detect the cointegrating vectors and to forecast the behaviour of the endogenous variables. A dynamic analysis is also performed, by using the block exogeneity tests to check the existence of causality relations, under a Grangerian sense. Before the CalcioCaos, the results reveal the importance of two stocks, of leading European Football Clubs (those of the Juventus F.C. as well as of the Borussia Dortmund F.C.) for the explanation of the pricing of other stocks that integrate the above mentioned benchmark. After the CalcioCaos, the stock prices of the Juventus F. C. lost explanatory power, whereas other previously less influent stocks (such as: Roma AS and Porto F.C.), did now play an important role in explaining the pricing of European Football Clubs, under a cointegrated approach.
