Abstract
This systematic review aims to draw a general overview of tourism event planning studies and identify the main components of tourism event planning. For this purpose, Scopus and Google Scholar databases were searched from 1994 to 2024 with the keywords of event planning, tourism event, event framework, and event models, and articles were extracted. Then, these articles were screened by the criteria of non-repetition and relevance to the topic. Finally, 140 articles were analyzed using MAXQDA, Zotero, VOS viewer, and artificial intelligence software. The research findings show that the period from 1990 to 2000 is dedicated to forming event planning foundations, from 2000 to 2010 to creating frameworks and models, and from 2010 to 2024 to integrating sustainability and interdisciplinary discussions.
Also, the four components of strategic planning and governance principles, stakeholder participation and cooperation, resource and risk planning, sustainability principles, and innovative and interdisciplinary approaches are among the main components of tourism event planning studies.
