Summary/Abstract: Events are activities that belong to the group of created attractions, which every destination that plans the successful development of tourism should have. The main role of the event is to promote tourism through the autonomous power of attraction of the event itself and to complement the tourist supply of a particular destination. The Southwest Serbia cluster has significant attractive features for the development of different forms of tourism, where a special role is played by event tourism, that is, various types of events. Some events in this cluster are of international significance, since, in addition to attracting domestic tourists, they also attract a significant number of foreign ones.
