Abstract Turističke destinacije sve više shvaćaju brojne prednosti koje im može donijeti razvoj event turizma, pa taj specifični oblik turizma sve češće dobiva primat u strategijama razvoja turizma destinacija. Osim što privlači posjetitelje u destinaciju koja joj je domaćin, manifestacija značajno doprinosi stvaranju pozitivnog imidža, obogaćuje doživljaj posjetitelja te doprinosi produženju njihova boravka u destinaciju. Ljudi postaju sve više zainteresirani za manifestacije svih vrsta, i putuju veoma daleko kako bi učestvovali u onima koje ih zanimaju. Split, drugi po veličini grad u Hrvatskoj, se u prošlosti često smatrao isključivo tranzitnom destinacijom, a zadnjih nekoliko godina doživljava turistički procvat te ruši rekorde posjećenosti iz sezone u sezonu. Kao jedan od ključnih oblika turizma kojeg turističke institucije u Splitu strateški razvijaju kako bi obogatili turističku ponudu grada Splita te smanjili masovnost i sezonalnost je manifestacijski ili event turizam. Upravo su se brojne manifestacije istaknule kao glavni motiv dolaska gostiju, a najznačajnija od njih je festival elektronske glazbe Ultra Europe koji se u Splitu održava svakog srpnja od 2013. godine, a u tri dana trajanja privuče više od sto tisuća posjetitelja iz više od sto zemalja svijeta što ga čini jednim od najposjećenijih glazbenih festivala u Europi. Ultra Europe je događanje koje je uvelike obilježilo galopirajući turistički razvoj Splita: osim prihoda za destinaciju i za puno njezinih djelatnosti, kao što su smještaj i ugostiteljstvo, trgovina i promet, taxi prijevoz i drugi transferi, radi se o turističkom proizvodu koji je dao dodatnu vrijednost postojećoj turističkoj ponudi Splita, privukao novi profil gostiju odmaknutih od standardnog proizvoda sunca i mora te upisao Split na kartu najboljih festivalskih destinacija Europe.

As one of the key forms of tourism that Split as tourist destination is strategically developing is event tourism. Numerous events have been highlighted as the main motive for the tourist arrival, and the most important of them all is the Ultra Europe, a three-day long electronic music festival that is held in Split every July since 2013. Every summer this festival attracts more than one hundred thousand visitors from all over the world which makes it one of the most popular music festivals in Europe.
