Description

Festival Encounters examines how small-scale, non-metropolitan festival events shape community identity and place through the lens of encounter theory. This Routledge academic text explores rural, regional and peri-urban festivals, analysing the complex relationships between communities and their cultural celebrations. The book investigates how festivals function as meaningful spaces where different people meet, interact and create shared experiences. By focusing on historic, religious, cultural and traditional significance, this research-driven work provides theoretical frameworks for understanding how festival events contribute to community building and social connection. Ideal for students and researchers in event management, cultural studies and community development.

Key Features

Festival Encounters uses encounter theory to analyse how festival events create spaces for community interaction and cultural exchange.

The book focuses on small-scale, non-metropolitan festivals in rural, regional and peri-urban settings rather than large commercial events.

Published by Routledge as part of the Advances in Event Research Series, providing scholarly analysis grounded in academic research.

Explores the relationships between place, community and identity through detailed examination of festival significance and function.

Examines how festival events contribute to community building and preserve historic, religious, cultural and traditional heritage.

Offers theoretical perspectives suitable for event management professionals, cultural researchers and community development practitioners.
