What are the benefits of holding those public events?

These events attract thousands of people together. They boost the local economy and allow people from different backgrounds to communicate and collaborate. In addition, they put the spotlight on cities as journalists report about the event on national media.

   What makes some events more popular than others?
   
   1. 
      think that it depends on the nature of the event. First of all, events that have been organized for many years are more likely to be popular than those that have been recently created. The Xiamen marathon did not attract so many people the first five years it was organized. In addition, some events will always seem more fascinating than others because of their historical reputation or the memories the name of the organization brings up. For example, a football World Cup will always be successful because it makes the fans dream. The summer Olympics remind everyone of past champions, and amazing records, such as Li Ning, or Carl Lewis (= 9 gold medals) or Jesse Owens (= Black athlete who won 4 gold medals in 1936 in Munich, in front of Hitler). On top of this, I believe that the media can definitely make a public event more famous by reporting about it, and spreading news of its merits.
