Nas últimas décadas, observa-se o surgimento de festivais dedicados ao cinema de arquivo. No Brasil, foi criado em 2002, pelo Arquivo Nacional, o Recine – Festival Internacional de Cinema de Arquivo, evento que foi substituído pelo Arquivo em Cartaz em 2015. O fenômeno dos festivais se relaciona com o tratamento do patrimônio audiovisual ao longo do século XX e XXI, sendo inseparável da trajetória das instituições arquivísticas. Neste artigo, pretende-se, por meio da análise dos dois festivais, discutir como esses eventos trabalham a tensão entre exibir e preservar, duas das principais funções

Abstract:
Festivals represent significant sociocultural and economic events in many societies. In Ghana, traditional festivals have evolved to take on more modern dimensions. The Kwahu Easter festival in Ghana's Eastern Region exemplifies these dynamics. Once a religious event, it has become a major tourist attraction driven by secular entertainment activities. This study explored the festival's history, identified its socioeconomic Significance, and examined associated tensions using mixed methods.

This study explores marketing strategies for content-driven festivals independent of local place assets, focusing on the Ansan Street Arts Festival. Based on a literature review, survey, and interviews, the study examines the festival’s connection to urban identity. Results show weak perceived links due to limited spatial continuity and symbolic presence. Strategies such as content specialization, regional collaboration, and public design are proposed. The study concludes that such festivals can contribute to urban branding and identity.

Kyoto’s Gion festival has arguably the best-documented history of all festivals (sairei) in Japan, and studies of its development have heavily influenced our understanding of festivals in general.

Diversity of financial resources is important to increase the sustainability of festivals. This is because even if one of the festival’s resources is stopped by external variables, the festival can be continued with other resources. Local festivals often suffer from low levels of economic independence as a primary concern for their economic sustainability. To solve the aforementioned real-world problem, this study investigated the determinants of festival goers’ willingness to pay for the development fund for the local festival. By using the CVM method, this study initially hypothesized four f

Abstract:
The modern science festival movement has grown significantly since the Edinburgh International Science Festival launched in 1989. Hundreds of science festivals now occur annually and vary widely. This article examines how the term “science festival” is used within research and practice. We find that most research articles fail to describe the science festivals they study. A subsequent analysis of festival websites and other publicly available information confirms the wide variability of science festival formats, which suggests the need for descriptive information about science festivals in sch

While there is a large body of literature on revisit intention to festivals, there is surprisingly little knowledge about it in the context of the Arab world. This research aims to develop a conceptual framework that focuses on the relationship between festival attachment and revisit intentions to festivals. The concept of festival attachment in the current research is borrowed from the concept of place attachment, referring to the same bonds that form between tourists and a tourist place that can also be developed or forged between tourists and a festival.

Abstract Proper observance of festivals is a major concern in early Jewish literature, but the festivals of the gentiles also figure prominently in this period. Two such festivals are the Greek Festival of Dionysus, described in Second Maccabees, and the Roman festival of Saturnalia, described in the Palestinian Talmud. I show the varied ways in which the authors of these texts, members of different groups, with different textual practices, and living centuries apart, problematize foreign holidays in their responses to imperial rule.

&lt;p&gt;The purpose of this article is to determine the attributes of entrepreneurs at festivals, in this case an arts festival. The reason for choosing an arts festival is that the largest festivals (judged by number of visitors and income generated) hosted in South Africa annually are arts festivals. A literature review revealed that this type of study had not previously been conducted in South Africa. In order to generate proper data, a survey was conducted of all small businesses that were trading at one of South Africa’s largest arts festivals, namely the Aardklop National Arts Festival,

The Literature Festival as a Public Sphere&#x0D; Literary festivals are becoming increasingly popular. They can, for instance, be dedicated to regional or world literature, a single author or a genre, literature in general or a specific theme. Despite their growing importance as public spheres, where an intense production and distribution of literary value take place, little scholarly attention has been paid to them. A common denominator for many festivals is that they have strong connections to the market, the state, and the broader cultural sphere of society. In this article I approach liter
