- Purpose - The aim of the study is first to describe and discuss an innovative strategy, pursued by a music festival, to reduce the environmental impact by allowing only vegetarian food in the festival area. A second aim is to discuss the effects of the vegetarian strategy for the festival in terms of branding and communication impacts. A third aim is to assess the effect on the ecological footprint of the festival from the vegetarian food strategy. Design/methodology/approach - Festival visitors’ food consumption was surveyed in 2010 (719 responses) and again in 2012 when only vegetarian food was served on festival premises (663 responses). The EPA Event Calculator, developed in Australia, was used to calculate the ecological footprint of the festival. The implementation and the impacts were studied from the festival organisers’ perspective through two (one hour long) interviews with one of the festival managers. Findings - For the festival brand, the vegetarian strategy proved to be extremely successful in terms of media attention and an enhanced "green" image of the festival. An analysis of the environmental impact of the vegetarian strategy indicates a remarkable drop of 40% in the size of the ecological footprint. Practical implications - Based on the results of this study, a vegetarian strategy can be recommended as an innovation for festivals that have core values and a brand image grounded both in sustainability and the reduction of environmental impacts and that are truly concerned about the environment.

20 Years of Nordic event and festival research: a review and future research agenda
- 2021

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- The research output during the last two decades suggests that events and festivals are of major importance for society both internationally and in a Nordic context. Existing literature, primarily published in a Nordic context, is reviewed and organized according to three broad areas: The event and festival consumer, the event or festival as organization and the effects and interrelationships of events and festivals with society. We discuss the contribution which Nordic research has made to the Nordic School and to international event and festival research and suggest a future research agenda focusing on methods, context and theories.

Experience quality, satisfaction, perceived value behavioral intentions in an event context
- 2017

Ingår i: Session Proceedings. 26th Nordic Symposium of Tourism and Hospitality Research, October 4-6 2017, Falun, Sweden.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- Quality is central to understand consumer behavior. In an event context Andersson, Armbrecht & Lundberg (2015) found that production quality and service quality determine satisfaction which determines the use value of event experiences and consumer expenditures at an event. Otto & Ritchie (1996) advocate a consumer perspective and propose that quality of a service and quality of an experience must be evaluated to understand the true nature of satisfaction. Researchers have engaged in developing scales for measuring these concepts during the last decade. Particularly the affective responses to experiences has been in focus to provide the experience and event industry with a deeper insight into aspects which might result in consumer immersion (Mihaly Csikszentmihalyi, 2014), arousal (Bigné et al., 2005; Holbrook & Hirschman, 1982) and extraordinary experiences (Abrahams, 1986; Arnould & Price, 1993). Few studies have however combined measures of affective and functional aspects into larger measurement models to predict satisfaction, value, intentions and behavior. This study measures affective and hedonic aspects of event experiences and to what extent they explain consumer value. Results indicate that affective and functional aspects are important. An interesting difference is that affective aspects are more likely to influence consumer satisfaction while functional aspects predict intentional behavior such as the likeliness to recommend the event to friends and family.

Impact Analysis of Sustainable Sports Events: Triple Impact Assessments of the 2013 EAIC

Ingår i: Estimating the Impacts of Tourism and Events A research symposium in Gothenburg, Sweden in March 20-21, 2014.

Konferensbidrag (övrigt vetenskapligt/konstnärligt)abstract
- The aim of this study is to answer the question: How to measure the impacts of sport events in a commensurable way. A model for measuring the impacts of a sport event from sustainability perspectives and in a common monetary metric is tested. Contingent valuation method, direct economic impact assessment and ecological footprint analysis are used to estimate the event impacts. The model is applied to a three day long European athletics indoor championship 2013 and the results demonstrate a possibility to produce a sustainability impact analysis in a uniform metric. Measured in monetary terms, socio-cultural impacts carry more weight than economic impacts do whereas environmental impacts have little importance for the total assessment. The tested model constitutes a promising method to develop a more holistic assessment of sport events.
