Abstract :Mega sporting events, such as the World Cup and the Olympics, are international events where the host country and city change. Technological developments at these events are used in various fields, including wearable devices, line technologies, and advanced analytical applications. These developments improve athlete performance, fan participation, and managerial efficiency. This study examined the technologies used in mega sporting events from historical and contemporary perspectives, as well as made predictions about future technologies. The study was conducted as a review. First, the technologies used in mega sporting events were examined within the scope of the research. Information was collected by reviewing academic publications, event reports, company websites, news sites, and event videos. The study concluded that the technologies used in mega sports events fall into five main categories: athlete performance and health technologies; refereeing and decision support systems; fan experience and interaction technologies; organizational and infrastructure technologies; and education, preparation, and analysis technologies. It is believed that this categorization can be used in future research.Keywords : Gelecek, Mega Etkinlikler, Spor, Teknoloji
