AB Culture-led regeneration is now a rising feature of cities as they seek to establish themselves as competitive cities of culture. The rise of culture impacts considerably upon the quality of life in cities. The competition takes two major strategies: mega projects and mega-events. While the main cities of the economically  advanced  nations  go  through  a  wide  range  of  experiences,  their  successes  and  failures  should be taken into consideration by those other cities that wish to imitate the ones leading in the rank-ing. Cities of the developing world, however, may meet completely different problems even during the stage of planning. This paper reviews such a case, namely Izmir, by way of stating the city’s intentions to  benefit  from  culture-driven  strategies  as  seen  through  its  indicators,  and  showing  the  evidence  that  cause it to fail in reaching its goals. The final statement shall emphasize the importance of cultural poli-cies to be formulated on a wider perspective.
