In this context the importance of organized cultural events could not be understated, with key factor in their success being the communicating and informing target audiences. Different theories of consumer communication patterns and the variety of methods of research and measurement of effectiveness dictate the main challenge facing modern marketers: selecting the right set of methodologies on the basis of which to carry out the evaluation and modify the communication strategy, which outlines the main problem this paper aims to solve.

The methodology includes a survey of organizers, attendees and general public. Based on the results of the multidimensional study, recommendations are made to cultural operators for their next projects, as well as potential prospects for further research in the sector.
