Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Promotional giveaways are a common marketing strategy used to attract and retain event attendees by creating memorable experiences and fostering loyalty. In Zaria Local Government Area, Kaduna State, event organizers often use branded merchandise, free samples, and discount vouchers as giveaways to incentivize attendance and encourage repeat participation. According to Suleiman and Adamu (2024), promotional giveaways not only enhance attendee satisfaction but also serve as effective tools for brand visibility and audience engagement.

This study evaluates the effectiveness of promotional giveaways in building event loyalty in Zaria, focusing on their benefits, challenges, and best practices.
