An event is always going to be more problematic than a seasonal undertaking.

A business has to focus on a short term barrage of customers rather than the steady repeat customers that can build a solid foundation.

Not always.

Farm stands sell seasonally and make a profit; Spirit Halloween is only open for a short time before Halloween and they seem to do fine.

Events have a large surge of participants in a short period of time.
Much harder than if that is spread over a season.

Bike Week gears up with temporary tents and vendors, which is not conducive to investment in brick and mortar structures.
