Analyst Opinion

The Sport Events market in Hong Kong is experiencing significant growth and development in recent years.

Customer preferences:
Customers in Hong Kong have shown a strong preference for participating in and attending sport events. The demand for sports events has been driven by the increasing popularity of sports such as football, basketball, and marathon running. Hong Kong residents have embraced a more active and healthy lifestyle, leading to a greater interest in sports events.

Trends in the market:
One of the key trends in the sport events market in Hong Kong is the rise of international sporting competitions. Hong Kong has become a popular destination for hosting international sporting events, attracting participants and spectators from around the world. This trend has been fueled by the city's world-class sports facilities, its strategic location in Asia, and the strong support from the local government. Another trend in the market is the growing popularity of niche and alternative sports events. Hong Kong residents are increasingly seeking unique and exciting sporting experiences, leading to the emergence of events such as extreme sports competitions, obstacle races, and adventure races. These events offer participants a chance to challenge themselves and push their limits, creating a sense of adventure and excitement.

Local special circumstances:
Hong Kong's unique geographical location and international status have contributed to the growth of the sport events market. The city's proximity to mainland China and other Asian countries makes it an attractive destination for both regional and international events. Additionally, Hong Kong's status as a global financial hub has attracted a large expatriate population, many of whom are sports enthusiasts and actively participate in or attend sport events.

Underlying macroeconomic factors:
The strong economy and high disposable income levels in Hong Kong have also played a significant role in the development of the sport events market. As people have more disposable income, they are willing to spend on leisure activities, including attending sports events. Furthermore, the government's investment in sports infrastructure and promotion of sports tourism have created a favorable environment for the growth of the market. In conclusion, the sport events market in Hong Kong is experiencing rapid growth due to customer preferences for active and healthy lifestyles, the rise of international sporting competitions, the popularity of niche and alternative sports events, the city's unique geographical location and international status, and the strong economy and high disposable income levels. With these factors in place, the sport events market in Hong Kong is expected to continue to thrive and attract both local and international participants and spectators.

Methodology

Data coverage:

The data encompasses B2C enterprises. Figures are based on Gross Merchandise Value (GMV) and represent what consumers pay for these products and services. The user metrics show the number of customers who have made at least one online purchase within the past 12 months.

Modeling approach / Market size:

Market sizes are determined through a bottom-up approach, building on predefined factors for each market segment. As a basis for evaluating markets, we use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies, third-party studies and reports, as well as survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey). In addition, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific associations, such as GDP, GDP per capita, and internet connection speed. This data helps us estimate the market size for each country individually.

Forecasts:

In our forecasts, we apply diverse forecasting techniques. The selection of forecasting techniques is based on the behavior of the relevant market. For example, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing. The main drivers are internet users, urban population, usage of key players, and attitudes toward online services.

Additional notes:

The market is updated twice a year in case market dynamics change. The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the Russia-Ukraine war are considered at a country-specific level. GCS data is reweighted for representativeness.
