    Customer preferences:
    Customers in Ecuador are increasingly looking for unique and immersive experiences when attending events. They are seeking out events that offer a combination of entertainment, education, and networking opportunities. This shift in preferences has led to an increase in demand for tickets to concerts, festivals, sporting events, and cultural performances. Additionally, customers are also showing a preference for online ticketing platforms, which offer convenience and ease of use.

    One of the key trends in the Event Tickets market in Ecuador is the rise of online ticketing platforms. These platforms have made it easier for customers to purchase tickets from the comfort of their own homes, eliminating the need to physically go to a ticket booth or stand in long queues. Online ticketing platforms also offer customers the ability to compare prices and choose the best deals, leading to increased competition among event organizers. Another trend in the market is the growing popularity of international events in Ecuador. With the increase in tourism and globalization, more international artists, musicians, and sports teams are choosing to perform in Ecuador. This has created a surge in demand for tickets to these events, as customers are eager to experience world-class entertainment.

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.

    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.
