Introduction
Sports and cultural events play a crucial role in the transformation and development of cities, influencing both their infrastructure and identity. These events not only bring visible changes to urban layouts but also impact the economy, social fabric, and global image of host cities.
One of the most evident effects of major events is the construction of new facilities and the improvement of existing infrastructure. Hosting the Olympic Games or a FIFA World Cup often involves building stadiums, convention centres, and public spaces. At the same time, cities invest in expanding and modernising transport networks, such as metro systems, roads, and airports, to ensure seamless mobility for attendees.
