abstract = {Sporting events are drivers of urban life and have the potential to bring substantial shortterm
economic benefits to the host region by attracting visitor spending. This study has analyzed the
impact generated by the 2021 Senior and Elite BadmintonWorld Championships that took place in
Huelva, Spain. The objectives are (i) determine the economic impact and determining factors; and
(ii) the impact on the development of badminton in the region. For this purpose, the study used the
Cost-Benefit Analysis approach to estimate the cashflows through a survey applied to both events.
The results reflect a direct positive impact on the region’s economy, although the results are not as
satisfactory at the sporting level. The article contributes to the few mid-range event studies on a
minority sport in a city with a highly developed tourism sector.},
