It combines contemporary and historical analysis of the economic and social impact of music tourism, with discussions of the cultural politics of authenticity and identity. Music tourism evokes nostalgia and meaning, and celebrates both heritage and hedonism. It is a product of commercialisation that can create community, but that also often demands artistic compromise. Diverse case studies, from the USA and UK to Australia, Jamaica and Vanuatu, illustrate the global extent of music tourism, its contradictions and pleasures.

Book Music festivals with a closer look on Wiesen

Download or read book Music festivals with a closer look on Wiesen written by Katharina Maier and published by GRIN Verlag. This book was released on 2004-11-27 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Diploma Thesis from the year 2004 in the subject Tourism - Miscellaneous, grade: 1 (A), , language: English, abstract: The most famous place for international music festivals in Austria is Wiesen. It is located in Burgenland and Mr. Bogner, the founder of these festivals has satisfied millions of people, including myself, with his events by now. Due to my general interest in event management I decided to do my studies on music festivals. It gave me the chance to have a deeper sight into this subject. Music festivals are special events, which can give a great experience to musicians, organizers and customers if they are properly organized. Everyone can gain a profit out of it – musicians with promoting their music, organizers with making profit and visitors with enjoying several concerts in one or more days. Furthermore I wanted to go into detail of the indirect profitability. The buying behaviour is not just influenced by media but also by transfer of visitors, accommodation abilities, food and beverage choice and many more. The marketing mix should address not just inbound but also outbound tourists to increase the customer awareness in the European festival market. The Wiesen Festival & Concert Veranstaltungs GMBH provides customers with high quality in concerts, F&B, security, waste management, etc. Nevertheless, no event passes by without any crisis. The reader should get an idea about upcoming problems and their solution during the festival. This diploma is focused on the positive consumer satisfaction which is only reached by proper planning. A customer is highly satisfied when the product is better than promised. Studies are done on the organizational methods, the customers feedback and the different service providers. The primary research is based on interviews with members of the organization team, journalists of music magazines, public transfer members, involved companies and festival visitors. The secondary research consisted of information from special event books, magazines and the Internet. The purpose of this thesis was to get a better view of creating a music festival. The reader should get a more complex idea of the whole performance in Wiesen. Furthermore it shows how the individual needs for an event are linked together.

Book Music Festivals and Regional Development in Australia

Download or read book Music Festivals and Regional Development in Australia written by Chris Gibson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 397 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Throughout the world, the number of festivals has grown exponentially in the last two decades, as people celebrate local and regional cultures, but perhaps more importantly as local councils and other groups seek to use festivals both to promote tourism and to stimulate rural development. However, most studies of festivals have tended to focus almost exclusively on the cultural and symbolic aspects, or on narrow modelling of economic multiplier impacts, rather than examining their long-term implications for rural change. This book therefore has an original focus. It is structured in two parts: the first discusses broad issues affecting music festivals globally, especially in the context of rural revitalisation. The second part looks in more detail at a range of types of festivals commonly found throughout North America, Europe and Australasia, such as country music, jazz, opera and alternative music festivals. The authors draw on in-depth research undertaken over the past five years in a range of Australian places, which traces the overall growth of festivals of various kinds, examines four of the more important and distinctive music festivals, and makes clear conclusions on their significance for rural and regional change.

Book Events and Festivals

Download or read book Events and Festivals written by Martin Robertson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-09-13 with total page 149 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Events and festivals have an increasingly vital role in our leisure lifestyles. We recognize them as part of our lives. For some, they are a very significant part of our lives. The network of festivals and events that either adorn the world now, or are planned for the future, can both serve to motivate new visits as well as enhance the lives of the people who live in – or near – the host area. They are also dynamos of cultural development, of sport knowledge and excellence and sophisticated consumption. Such dynamic outputs require dynamic inputs. This book looks at different event and festival cases and forwards separate and current managerial implications and responses to these, with reference to the UK, America and Australia. Both up-to-date and forward thinking, the managerial themes addressed are: Creative Management, Festival and Event audience development, Culture and Community, Event and Festival evaluation. Festival and event types include sport events, art festivals, community events, live music and culinary extravaganza. This book was previously published as a special issue of Managing Leisure: An International Journal.

Book The Routledge Handbook of Festivals

Download or read book The Routledge Handbook of Festivals written by Judith Mair and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-09-03 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In recent times, festivals around the world have grown in number due to the increased recognition of their importance for tourism, branding and economic development. Festivals hold multifaceted roles in society and can be staged to bring positive economic impact, for the competitive advantage they lend a destination or to address social objectives. Studies on festivals have appeared in a wide range of disciplines, and consequently, much of the research available is highly fragmented. This handbook brings this knowledge together in one volume, offering a comprehensive evaluation of the most current research, debates and controversies surrounding festivals. It is divided into nine sections that cover a wide range of theories, concepts and contexts, such as sustainability, festival marketing and management, the strategic use of festivals and their future. Featuring a variety of disciplinary, cultural and national perspectives from an international team of authors, this book will be an invaluable resource for students and researchers of event management and will be of interest to scholars in the fields of anthropology, sociology, geography, marketing, management, psychology and economics.
