Local resident perceptions of the impacts of the FIFA Confederations Cup 2009 within the City of Tshwane.

M. Tech. Tourism and Hospitality Management / South Africa has been the world's stage in hosting major and mega sport events that drew the world's attention such as the legacy of the Rugby World Cup 1995, the Cricket World Cup in 2003, the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA) Confederations Cup 2009 and the latest FIFA World Cup 2010 which are also examples of the opportunities provided by major and mega events. Such as in many cities, destination marketing organizations have engaged in the systematic planning, development, and marketing of events as tourist attractions, image-makers, or catalysts for other developments however, the involvement of local residents in the planning and operational stages is often neglected. Therefore, this study has been conceived to focus on the local resident's perceptions of the impacts of the Confederations Cup 2009 within the City of Tshwane (Metropolitan Municipality).
