Defining Event Categories
01 August 2025
This research aims to objectively understand what exactly we mean by small, medium, large, major, mega and giga events, to create both objective and subjective definitions, and a scoring system to know when an event has passed through one size to another. Through this, we hope to develop “generally accepted” definitions of different event categories.
