Particularly, these insights were depicted that awareness, environmental concern, green advertising, greenwashing, green product attributes, social norms and income were identified as key factors for generating the perception of event planners in Sri Lanka. The semi-structured in-depth interviews were conducted among the 05 most reputed event planners in Sri Lanka to derive research data and the narrative analysis method has been adopted as the data analysis method in this study. A qualitative approach was applied to determine the underlying influences on event planners‟ perceptions about eco-friendly events in Sri Lanka. Additionally, the impact of the perception of consumers about the green concept related to the events was explored in this study from the event planners‟ point of view. Findings of the study show that awareness, environmental concern and green advertising are the factors that mostly impact on the consumers‟ green purchase intentions.
