Resumo: The present article discusses the strategies of development and positioning of a tourist destination based on the tourism of sporting events. The argument is supported by a discussion of results based on a case study - X African Games - which took place in Maputo City, capital of Mozambique in the year 2011. The research is descriptive-qualitative in nature, using the techniques of bibliographical, documentary and data collection research based on the standardized interview technique and direct nonparticipant observation, which concludes that in CM the tourism segment of sports events is a strategic impeller of development of a tourist destination. The positioning is not yet visible, since this destination is still in the phase of exploration (1st phase) of the tourist destination’s life cycle.

A argumentação é sustentada por uma discussão de resultados assente num estudo de caso – X jogos africanos – que decorreram na Cidade de Maputo (CM), capital de Moçambique no ano de 2011. A pesquisa é de natureza descritiva e qualitativa, com recurso ao uso de técnicas de pesquisa bibliográfica, documental e de recolha de dados baseada na técnica de entrevista padronizada e da observação direta não participante, donde se conclui que na CM o segmento do turismo de eventos desportivos constitui-se num impulsionador estratégico de desenvolvimento de um destino turístico. O posicionamento não é ainda visível, dado que este destino se encontra ainda na fase de exploração (1a fase) do ciclo de vida do destino turístico.Departamento de Economia, Gestão, Engenharia Industrial e Turismo da Universidade de Aveiro2017-01-01T00:00:00Zjournal articlejournal articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://doi.org/10.34624/rtd.v1i27/28.9677oai:proa.ua.pt:article/9677Journal of Tourism & Development; Vol 1 No 27/28 (2017); 985-1001Revista Turismo & Desenvolvimento; vol. 1 n.º 27/28 (2017); 985-10012182-14531645-9261reponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAPporhttps://proa.ua.pt/index.php/rtd/article/view/9677https://doi.org/10.34624/rtd.v1i27/28.9677https://proa.ua.pt/index.php/rtd/article/view/9677/6321https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessPascoal, JoaquinaGustavo, Nuno2022-09-26T10:56:39Zoai:proa.ua.pt:article/9677Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T16:05:25.999434Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse
