Chapter One: Introduction
1.1 Background of the Study
Mobile apps have become indispensable tools for enhancing attendee engagement at events, offering features such as real-time updates, interactive maps, and feedback mechanisms. In Gombe Local Government Area, Gombe State, the adoption of mobile apps in event planning has gained traction, particularly in large-scale gatherings such as festivals, conferences, and community celebrations. These apps facilitate seamless communication between organizers and attendees, improving the overall event experience. According to Ahmed and Bello (2023), mobile apps enhance engagement by providing personalized content, enabling networking opportunities, and fostering interactive participation.
