An important point to remember regarding the validation process of a destination is that seasonality is also crucial. A local festival in the middle of winter in a typically warm city, for example, can drastically alter accessibility and prices, even for less important events than those you mentioned.

Lacunar process: who takes on the ownership of decision-making regarding the importance of local events in destination validation?
Without a clear governance framework, assessing their impact becomes arbitrary and may lack relevance.
For example, for a business trip to Milan, the Fashion Week is not a validation factor but a logistical and financial complication that requires an escalation for a mitigation plan.
It is imperative to document evaluation criteria and obtain a formal sign-off at each level of influence.

Who is the owner of the assertion that local events are a major component of destination validation? For me, there is no clear process that defines when and how this impact is assessed, nor who bears the responsibility.
Without this documentation, it is difficult to make informed trade-offs, especially if trip objectives vary.
For example, for a business trip where punctuality and budget are key, a local event like a music festival can cause logistical disruptions and unforeseen accommodation costs, requiring clear approval to bypass or incorporate it.
A governance framework is necessary to determine when the impact of local events is decisive and when it is not, with explicit sign-offs for each scenario.
We need clear roles and a defined chain of command for this decision-making process.
