Governments spend huge amounts on stadiums and infrastructure. For example, in 2022 FIFA World cup held by Qatar. New stadiums and sometimes new hotels create for the world cup. Most billion dollars funds invest and built that all things. Then nowadays, some stadium rarely used in their country. Therefore, these events can create financial problems in them countries.
On the other hand, international events can provide significant benefits for the country. Some one hosting relevant events, they are creating lot of jobs and other infrastructures. For instance, in 2026 FIFA World cup held by USA. Most countries individuals arrived in USA and spend money on hotels, restaurants, and local businesses. That events can all other countries people together and local people can proud of their country. In the final game ticket price was minimum 20,000 dollars up to. Lot of earn that relevant games hosting the country and that is investment for the other tourist people as well. Therefore, hosting these events can benefit the economy and society.
