Austragung vs Organisation
organization
'die Organisation' and 'die Austragung' can both occur in connection with events. 'Organisation' mainly means planning and preparation: rooms, dates, people, and materials. 'Austragung' more often means that an event is actually carried out, especially in sports competitions. So you can plan the organization of a tournament long in advance, but the 'Austragung' happens on the day of the tournament. The words are easy to confuse because organization is also needed for an 'Austragung'.
Austragung
Die Austragung des Finales findet in diesem Jahr in Köln statt.
The final will be held in Cologne this year.
Organisation
Für die Organisation des Stadtlaufs sucht der Verein noch freiwillige Helfer.
The club is still looking for volunteers to help organize the city run.
