The event first took place in Glasgow in 1948. It has been held regularly in Glasgow since 1986.

2. What does Glasgow City Council say the event will do? （格拉斯哥市议会称，该活动将有何影响？）

解析：C。录音后半部分提到，格拉斯哥市议会表示，这场比赛预计将为当地经济带来30万英镑的收入。C项是对此内容的概括总结，故为正确答案。

错项排除：A、B、D三项中的“提升城市形象”“丰富当地文化”“娱乐社区民众”等信息在录音中都没有提及，故均可排除。
