This segment has received a strong boost, especially from Millennials. The purpose of this paper is to analyze the bleisure tourism phenomena and the potential for this business-leisure symbiosis in Porto. A mixed-method approach was adopted through a Delphi technique to explore tourism stakeholder’s perceptions concerning both the city’s opportunities and strategies that should be followed to boost the bleisure tourism sector. The assets identified as very important for the development of bleisure tourism in the city were unique gastronomy, good wines, the historical center and local people’s hospitality. Nevertheless, improve human resource qualification, increase flight connections, enhance local heritage and urban regeneration and fostering collaboration networks between local stakeholders are strategic actions that merit more attention. Many studies have been conducted from the perspective of business tourism activities and impacts; few have been conducted from the bleisure tourism perspective and none have been conducted from the perspective of bleisure tourism in the city of Porto. This work represents the first attempt to elicit experts’ opinions about the potential of Porto to develop the bleisure tourism segment. This study aims to contribute to better understanding how destinations can take advantage of this niche segment of the tourism market, which kind of touristic assets can be valued and which specific destination attributes should be considered.","PeriodicalId":46268,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Convention & Event Tourism","volume":"22 1","pages":"346 - 362"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2021-03-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15470148.2021.1905575","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47241075","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This crisis has been particularly harmful to the tourism industry and, more specifically, to the events’ subsector. This study aims to understand the main measures that have been implemented by the Portuguese public sector to assist companies which specialize in the organization of events. In addition, the study seeks to empirically understand the strategies and solutions that, according to the industry’s players, should be implemented in future crisis scenarios. The sample consisted of representatives of 165 companies belonging to the subsector of cultural and sports events, corporate events, and tourist animation. The data was collected during the month of April 2020 by means of a questionnaire prepared by the Portuguese Association of Congress Organizers, Tourism Animation and Events (APECATE). The adopted methodology was anchored in the mixed methods paradigm. Through a quantitative approach, the frequencies of the variables under study – sector of activity, support measures by the public sector, suggestions of additional measures – were analyzed. Afterwards, the suggestions referred by the participants were codified and analyzed qualitatively. The results of this research reveal that 72.1% of surveyed companies have used some kind public sector assistance mechanisms, with layoff being the most widely selected initiative by respondents. As actions to be implemented in a future crisis scenario, surveyed companies highlight, for instance, support to the managers of companies specialized in organizing events, as well as financial support to these companies by means of non-repayable loans.","PeriodicalId":46268,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Convention & Event Tourism","volume":"22 1","pages":"407 - 428"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2021-03-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15470148.2021.1904077","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46599505","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These are further amplified and reinforced by international media. International business events provide an opportunity to enhance the destination’s touristic image and competitiveness. This study investigates the influence of business events experience on international visitors’ perceived destination image. The study was carried out at three leading business event venues in Nairobi, Kenya. Convenience sampling method was used to select respondents during the events. A total of 335 questionnaires were successfully completed and used for data analysis. An exploratory factor analysis identified six business event experiences factors important in influencing a destination image including destination’s venue facilities, accommodation facilities, destination attractions, destination accessibility, destination safety and security and perceived affordability of services. Structural analysis indicated that business event experiences influenced destination’s cognitive image and the overall image. Destination cognitive image influenced destination’s affective image and overall image, while the destination’s affective image influenced the overall image. However, business event experiences did not have a direct significant influence on destination’s affective image. The study findings extend the knowledge on influence of events on the host destination’s image using business events perspective. Discussions and implications of the findings are also highlighted.","PeriodicalId":46268,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Convention & Event Tourism","volume":"22 1","pages":"384 - 406"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2021-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15470148.2021.1895017","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45363041","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research therefore sought to get insights into exhibitors’ preferences that captivate them to attend trade fairs from an African perspective. The objectives of the study were to determine the role that exhibition organizers are expected to play by exhibitors, to establish the nature of benefits sought by exhibitors and to identify service quality preferences by exhibitors. Structured questionnaires were self-administered to 136 exhibitors attending the 2019 edition of the Zimbabwe International Trade Fair. Results revealed that organizers are seen as the link between exhibitors and visitors, hence are responsible for marketing the event so that it lures more exhibitors. An Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA) done on the benefits sought by exhibitors yielded two factors which are product positioning benefits as well as interaction with key stakeholders. Accessibility of the venue, communication by organizers, boothscapes, exhibition environment and ideal duration of the exhibition are some of the quality issues highlighted as preeminent to exhibitors. A further EFA done on exhibitors’ service quality preference extracted two factors which are logistical arrangements and event atmospherics.","PeriodicalId":46268,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Convention & Event Tourism","volume":"22 1","pages":"363 - 383"},"PeriodicalIF":2.2,"publicationDate":"2021-03-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1080/15470148.2021.1893241","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49085671","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To test the research hypotheses, a quantitative approach, with a sample of 300 Tunisian who have attended the International Festival of Carthage, was conducted. The analytical packages (exploratory and confirmatory factor analyses) confirmed most of the research hypotheses. The empirical results indicated that the festival information, program, atmosphere and staff are crucial predictors of festivalgoers’ emotions. Furthermore, positive and negative emotions seem to predict satisfaction, which in turn is a determinant of tourists’ behavior and also influences their intention to revisit and recommend the festival to others.
