Art events are widely recognized as one of the most important facilitators in achieving cultural, social, and economic goals in the process of culture-led urban regeneration. This paper examines the difficulties faced by the International Film Festival for Children and Youth (IFFCY) during culture-led urban regeneration in Isfahan and suggests strategies to overcome these difficulties. Using a mixed-methods approach, the first stage of the research was based on grounded theory, and data was collected through semi-structured interviews with 14 experts. The second step involved quantifying and ranking qualitative data in accordance with the Promethee II multiple criteria decision making method. According to the results of this study, the Festival faced many obstacles in achieving culture-led urban regeneration due to the government’s undue interference in the Festival’s specialized affairs, the dilapidated venues, and the lack of spatial and temporal stability. The strategies proposed in this paper aim to develop management, enhancing venue quality of art events in historical cities, and economic dimensions of culture-led regeneration.
