Sažetak
Events and festivals have a positive impact on the local economy but these large gatherings usually produce an increase of resources and accumulated waste. This could result in negative effects, especially in those tourist areas which owe their popularity to unspoiled environment. The aim of this paper is to propose a way how zero waste philosophy could be applied in the organisation of events and festivals. In order to contribute to the sustainable development of destinations, this paper suggests a more holistic approach that includes main steps to sustainable event and festival management and selected indicators. A best practice example shows how realistic it is to achieve the ‘zero waste’ goal in organising and managing an event.
