## The Essence of a Mass-Event Legal Audit

Georgia has no unified, separate statute on mass events — event law is assembled from civil legislation, contractual discipline and the rules of tort liability. Precisely for that reason the legal audit of a mass event is a justified instrument: it is a systematic verification of how far the event's entire contractual structure — the relations of the organizer, contractors, vendors and service providers — fits within the law's requirements, and which damage risks remain uncovered. The audit answers one question first of all: does a contract exist? Under Article 327, a contract is considered concluded where the parties have agreed on all essential terms, and essential are the terms on which agreement must be reached at a party's demand or by operation of law. The same article allows a preliminary contract to be formalized as well — an obligation to conclude a future contract, to which the form of the main contract extends. An event without defined essential terms is not merely sloppy paperwork; legally, parts of it may not exist at all.
