F) Comment on the amount of tourism benefits received by the host city of the chosen event.


Demand for Arts

The unique experience left by the festival to the customers would generate a growing public demand for arts and also help creates new cultural platforms.

Tourism revenue increased

Visitors who visited the festivals tend to have an extended length of stay. Hence, this would increase the revenue earned from these tourists.

Tax revenue increased

The more the tourists spend, the more the tax fees are charged upon them. Usually, tourists who come for such unique events tend to spend a lot as it leaves them with memorable experience. Thus, results in a rise in tax revenue.

Business Opportunities

The Singapore Arts Festival provides the host community with a strong platform to display their expertise, hosting potential investors and also help promote new business opportunities.

Creation of Employments

The revenue collected from the influx of tourists as service revenue can be used for building other infrastructures that could be a platform for employment opportunities.
