ABSTRACT

To promote city marketing, some cities have hosted Mega-events and left behind several large cultural facilities. However, some of facilities are underutilised in subsequent stages, leading to isolate from the daily lives of the surrounding communities. In this context, this research takes the China Pavilion of the Shanghai World Expo as a case study to evaluate the subsequent use of Mega-event spaces. It proposes strategies for spatial organic regeneration guided by social integration. Data were collected through questionnaires and interviews and analysed using mean statistics and multiple linear regression methods. The findings revealed several issues regarding the subsequent use of the China pavilion. The conclusion highlights that, to achieve the goal of sustainable social development, targeted strategies for the organic regeneration of Mega-event spaces should be proposed under the guidance of social integration based on qualitative and quantitative analysis.
