Resumo: | Originally, music festivals appeared with the purpose of celebrating regional culture by bringing communities together (Duffy, 2000). There was a shift, decades later, and commercial motives started prevailing over community orientation. Hence, bigger music festivals started to be hosted in bigger metropolis, due to their more adequate infrastructures. A growing stagnation of rural areas can also be seen since they are unable to stem the exodus from the interior to the coast. The rise of nostalgic tourism has brought, however, some hope to these regions. Music festivals started being considered as a possible strategy for rural revitalisation, not just for generating economic benefits but to regenerate communities. As such, in this context, several questions emerge: “Can music festivals revitalize and develop rural communities? If yes, how does it happen?” To give a thorough answer to these questions, this research focused on the case of BONS SONS music festival. Interviews with two locals and the artistic director of the festival were conducted, as a survey to local businesses of Tomar was applied, to identify which were the cultural, social, and economic benefits and costs. Two OLS regressions were also estimated to understand if an impact was seen on the business’s organisations, from staging this music festival. Hence, this research resorts to a strategy of data triangulation, since three different research methods were combined. Results seem to indicate that BONS SONS festival contributes positively to the local economy. Besides leveraging local businesses, especially in the accommodation and food service activities sector, it contributes to the implementation of other social projects throughout the year. |

Décadas mais tarde, motivos comerciais começaram a prevalecer sobre a orientação comunitária. Deste modo, festivais de maior dimensão passaram a ser realizados em grandes cidades, dadas as suas infraestruturas mais adequadas. É possível assistir também a uma crescente estagnação das zonas rurais, que se revelam incapazes de estancar o êxodo do interior para o litoral. A ascensão do turismo nostálgico trouxe, no entanto, alguma esperança. Os festivais passam a ser equacionados como uma possível estratégia de revitalização rural, não apenas pelos benefícios económicos, mas pela capacidade de regenerar comunidades. Assim, levantam-se várias questões, como as questões de investigação que se formulam: “Podem os festivais contribuir para a revitalização e desenvolvimento de comunidades em zonas rurais? E, se tal se verificar, como é que isso acontece?" O Festival BONS SONS foi usado como caso de estudo. De forma a identificar quais os benefícios e custos sociais, culturais e económicos, foram realizadas entrevistas a dois locais e ao diretor artístico do festival, e aplicado um inquérito aos estabelecimentos locais. Foram também estimadas duas regressões OLS para medir o impacto do festival nestes negócios. Assim, uma estratégia metodológica de triangulação foi utilizada, dado que foram combinados três métodos distintos. Os resultados sugerem que o BONS SONS beneficia positivamente a economia local. Para além de alavancar negócios locais, sobretudo do setor de alojamento, restauração e similares, contribui para a implementação de outros projetos sociais ao longo do ano, algo que se considera ser positivo.Coelho, Sandra Cristina LimaSeixas, Carlos Eduardo Soares deVeritati - Repositório Institucional da Universidade Católica PortuguesaTeixeira, Maria João Carvalho2022-12-07T16:21:34Z2022-10-112022-092022-10-11T00:00:00Zinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersioninfo:eu-repo/semantics/masterThesisapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/39511TID:203088611enginfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessreponame:Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos)instname:Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãoinstacron:RCAAP2023-07-12T17:45:02Zoai:repositorio.ucp.pt:10400.14/39511Portal AgregadorONGhttps://www.rcaap.pt/oai/openaireopendoar:71602024-03-19T18:32:20.593264Repositório Científico de Acesso Aberto de Portugal (Repositórios Cientìficos) - Agência para a Sociedade do Conhecimento (UMIC) - FCT - Sociedade da Informaçãofalse |
