Whether through education, sport or festivity, events form the
basis on which we attribute cultural meaning, significance and
value to our lives. In this light, community events have the
potential to create positive and negative social, cultural,
economic and environmental impacts within the community across a
wide variety of genres and platforms. This book offers a deeper and
more critical insight into the relationships, dynamics and planning
processes of festivals and events and the impact this has upon
authenticity, cultural consumption and the local communities they
serve. It does so by looking at a range of key debates in power
theory, event planning and design, event construction, experience
and meaning, authenticity, sustainability, social inclusion,
accessibility and sponsorship engagement. International case
studies are embedded within the chapters, examining the role of
stakeholders, local communities, organisers, local governments and
infrastructure. This critical event studies text is
interdisciplinary and will make valuable reading for students and
researchers who are interested in the relationships and dynamics
involved in the construction and planning of festivals and events,
their immediate impact and their significance for the future.
