David O’Loughlin Mayor City of Prospect: Council Agenda 22/03/2016 Item 15.1: 2016 Tourrific Prospect Event Evaluation 3 3 AGENDA ITEM NO.: 15.1 TO: Council on 22 March 2016 DIRECTOR: Nathan Cunningham, Director Community, Planning and Communications REPORT AUTHOR: Carolyn Ramsey, Manager Arts, Gallery and Events SUBJECT: 2016 Tourrific Prospect Event Evaluation 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 Council endorsed a budget and recently delivered the fifth Tourrific Prospect street party, and the Stage 1 Start of the Santos Tour Down Under (STDU). 1.2 For City of Prospect, the Tourrific Prospect event continues to be a major undertaking. The investment by Council is significant and the support from local sponsors is highly valued. Together, this investment sees Council deliver on its commitment to undertake the best possible event for our, and the wider, community within allocated resources and event site limitations. 1.3 In 2016 strong crowd and trader numbers were achieved. Since the first Tourrific Prospect in 2012, the event aims to deliver a high calibre, inclusive event which is admired by other Councils, as each competes for audiences within Adelaide’s peak event period. Our relationship with the STDU is well regarded and the STDU continues to support and promote the Tourrific Prospect brand to their local, national and international audiences. 1.4 The Guinness World Record (GWR) Largest Ukulele Ensemble attempt was a new initiative developed as an audience development and participation strategy to attract and bring new people to Prospect and the event. As many Councils now do great street parties, the events team sought something unique that the whole community could embrace, participate in and enjoy as a ‘once in a life time opportunity’. 1.5 To continue future Tourrific Prospect events Council will need to consider the significant financial and staff investment as well as sponsor commitments required to maintain the quality, variety and broad participation the community have come to expect of their own ‘street party’. 1.6 This report is presented ahead of Annual Budget deliberations to inform Council’s decision making for the 2016/17 financial year. 1.7 This report provides Council with information and details concerning the event’s objectives as well as the following. Event management practises that have been built up over five years by incorporating event staff, trader and participant feedback and comments as to what works and what needs improvement Budget and expenditure forecasts in this high demand event period that impacts on availability of event staff and infrastructure, often at a premium price City of Prospect: Council Agenda 22/03/2016 Item 15.1: 2016 Tourrific Prospect Event Evaluation 4 4 VIP events showcasing what is great about our City, and achieving sponsorship income success in an increasingly competitive and risk adverse climate Staffing and volunteers- their roles, responsibilities and collective value to the event The report and findings by Greenhill Research and Planning in association with Truscott Research that was designed to determine the impact of the event from the perspective of event patrons, stallholders and traders, Prospect Road businesses and our 2016 sponsors Marketing and media achievements by marketing company Algo Mas Operations and logistics overview with regard to visitor, trader, stage, security and site management as well as emergency response plans Our continued commitment to the tradition of Tourrific Prospect as a true family friendly, all ages and inclusive event Overview of the second year results of our ‘zero waste’ strategy Validation of attendances, estimated at 18,000 Return on investment calculations for Council Overview of Council’s relationship with STDU noting we were offered not only a stage start again after only a one year break, but the much sought after Stage 1 Start confirming Prospect as a highly regarded partner of the STDU Summary of internal (staff, volunteers and Elected Members) evaluation and feedback sessions with observations and suggestions for future major events. 1.8 The 2016/17 budget approved a net cost to Council of $178,066 (plus projected income – all sources of $62,000) resulting in a total expenditure of $240,066 for the 2016 event.
