Abstract(s)
O turismo cultural é uma temática que tem captado cada vez mais a atenção dos investigadores, uma vez que promove a herança social do destino onde ocorre. Várias atrações turísticas podem ser criadas para transmitir a herança cultural de um povo, como é o caso dos eventos. Os eventos exercem uma forte influência na imagem do destino, sendo por vezes um fator de seleção do mesmo. Por essa razão se reconhece a importância de compreender as motivações dos visitantes que participam nestes acontecimentos.
Os principais objetivos deste trabalho de investigação são determinar quais as motivações para a participação no Festival Tremor, quais as perceções dos visitantes em relação aos impactos económicos, sociais e ambientais que o festival tem sobre a comunidade local e qual o grau de satisfação manifestado perante o evento.
A revisão de literatura aborda os principais conceitos relacionados com as motivações dos visitantes para participar em eventos desta natureza e o seu impacto sobre as comunidades locais. Igualmente se analisa a satisfação obtida pelos visitantes, atendendo que esta afeta a intenção de regresso e/ou recomendação do festival e do destino turístico.
Quatro hipóteses são formuladas e testadas através da aplicação de um questionário aos visitantes do festival.
Os resultados do estudo permitem dar um contributo para melhorar o planeamento e a gestão deste festival de música e de outros eventos desta natureza de modo a que se possam satisfazer as necessidades dos visitantes e da comunidade local.
