Experiential attributes and benefits of transnational festivals
Despite their significant impact on the well-being of immigrants, the destination image of host countries, and preservation of heritage, transnational festivals have received limited research attention. This study aims to explore transnational festival attributes and their experiential benefits using a constructivist grounded theory approach to analyze two major Ethiopian transnational festivals that take place in the USA. Based on the research findings the study formulates five main domains of festival attributes: transnational religion, homeland atmosphere, volunteering, homeland people, and convenience. These attributes allow visitors to gain educational, spiritual, esthetic, social cohesion and volunteering experiential benefits, which are different from those of conventional festivals. Theoretical contributions and practical implications are discussed along with study limitations and directions for future research.
期刊介绍:
International Journal of Tourism Research promotes and enhances research developments in the field of tourism. The journal provides an international platform for debate and dissemination of research findings whilst also facilitating the discussion of new research areas and techniques. IJTR continues to add a vibrant and exciting channel for those interested in tourism and hospitality research developments. The scope of the journal is international and welcomes research that makes original contributions to theories and methodologies. It continues to publish high quality research papers in any area of tourism, including empirical papers on tourism issues. The journal welcomes submissions based upon both primary research and reviews including papers in areas that may not directly be tourism based but concern a topic that is of interest to researchers in the field of tourism, such as economics, marketing, sociology and statistics. All papers are subject to strict double-blind (or triple-blind) peer review by the international research community.
