Urban development and the arts strongly influence
each other all the more when mega-events such as
the Olympic Games are added to the picture as they
will be in Vancouver in 2010. What happens to a city
and its arts community once the decision for the next
host city is made? How can the influx of new funding,
increased world-wide attention and a common goal be
used to develop the city into a creative world class
city; a great home for all of its citizens and
visitors alike? Over a period of several years the
preparations for a mega-event shape the atmosphere of
and urban change taking place in the city, and exert
an enormous influence on the local economy, civic
pride and people s lives in general. Vancouver s
existing diverse arts community and the extensive
plans for the cultural component hold vast potential
to contribute to the successful staging of the
Olympic Games in Vancouver. Employing computer-based
content analysis of expert interviews, the author
assesses the expectations, fears and hopes of the
arts community and, linking these to
theoretical concepts of urban development, outlines
the potential impacts of the Olympic Games coming to
Vancouver.
