Research conducted among 18,000 individual paying visitors showed that in connection with their attendance at this event people spent more than 164 million Crowns and there was an increase in revenue of 393 million Crowns. Every Crown in the budget of the Prague Quadrennial thus generated almost 6 Crowns in revenue for the Czech economy and two Crowns of GDP.
