Graduate Business School Working with Events to build a Destination Brand Identity -the DMO Perspective Jessica Johansson Graduate Business School Tourism and Hospitality Management Master Thesis No. 2007:33 Supervisor: Mia Larson Using events to build a destination brand identity - the DMO perspective _________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The tourism industry is considered one of the largest and fastest growing industries in the world. To successfully compete in this increasingly competitive environment, it is a relatively new trend among destination marketing organisations (DMOs) to turn their destination into a brand. At the core of the brand lies the identity, which refers to what a brand stands for, what gives it meaning, and what makes it unique. The purpose of this study is to examine how DMOs are working to establish a destination brand identity, and how events are used strategically in the process. Interviews have been undertaken with DMOs of various sizes, locations and characteristics. Findings indicate that it is a rather recent, however common practice, among the DMOs to strategically work with destination branding and to carefully consider the brand identity. How this is done varies between the studied destinations, and although they all regard events as main contributors of their tourism development; the strategic thinking is in this matter less obvious. The event brand is in some of the cases not intentionally corresponding with the identity of the destination brand. Key Words: Destination Branding, Brand Identity, Destination Brand Identity, Events. 1 Using events to build a destination brand identity - the DMO perspective _________________________________________________________________________ ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Writing this thesis has been a challenging journey, much due to the effort of working full-time at the same time. It has also been a great learning process and experience, and several people have been contributing during this time, some of which I would now like to show appreciation. First of all, I would like to express my deepest gratitude to the participating organisations and managers who took time out of their busy work-lives to help me with this study. Your enthusiasm, helpfulness and valuable information has made the process of writing this thesis both exciting and educating. I also like to thank my supervisor Mia Larson, Phd, who has pushed me towards constant improvements and who has provided valuable guidance and constructive criticism along the way. A big thank you to Kristina Christofferson, my manager at work, for choosing to hire me in the middle of the thesis period, and for allowing time out of work for interviews and meetings. Thanks also to my thesis group members Helene and Farah, for suggestions, support and uplifting conversations at our thesis meetings and during tough periods. Lastly, I would like to thank my family and friends for supporting me this whole time. Your patience and understanding has truly been helpful. A special thank you to Anders, for endless encouragement and love. 2 Using events to build a destination brand identity - the DMO perspective

    Dialogmöte Exercisheden Inkomna synpunkter via webben, Facebook och Instagram Vad vill du ha mer av på Heden? Stadsbyggnadskontoret har bjudit in till ett antal dialoger kring utvecklingen av Heden på temat Vad vill vi ha mer av på Heden? Utöver de fysiska dialogmötena fanns även möjligheten att lämna synpunkter via webben, Facebook och Instagram (de sistnämnda som kommentarer till inlägg/reklaminlägg på respektive plattform). Totalt via digitala verktyg inkom det ca 760 unika synpunkter. Nedan finns alla synpunkter samlade under de teman som uppkommit under dialogmötena. 1 Vad vill du ha mer av på Heden? Bostäder Tycker heden hade varit perfekt för studentbostäder, alt mindre hyresrätter för unga. Nära till stan och ställen där unga i stor utsträckning befinner sig. Hög bebyggelse så att det får plats många bostäder. Bostäder. Släpp i övrigt fram storskalig förtätning på höjden. Nya bostäder i höghus med verksamheter i bottenvåning vore också väldigt passande, så länge Heden fortsättningsvis ha gott om öppna ytor för allmänheten. Flervåningshus som smälter in i miljön. Träd emellan. Åtminstone delar av lägenheterna bör vara billiga ettor och tvåor. Jag vill ha mer riktig kvartersstad på Heden. Med massor av bostäder och verksamheter. Börja med att bebygga området norr om förlängda Vasagatan. Jag tycker att vi behöver förtäta innerstaden och att vi ska bygga ett nytt bostadsområde, där vi satsar på högre hus, på Heden. Naturligtvis ska området ta hänsyn till social hållbarhet och främja mötesplatser som inkluderar. Området bör av samma anledning bestå av både billigare och dyrare lägenheter. Näringslivet kring Avenyn skulle vinna mycket på en förtätning av staden österut.

Målet är nära, publiken längs med banan hurrar och hela staden kokar av feststämning. Alla älskar känslan som uppstår när man överkommer hinder. När man utmanar sig själv, tar sig ut och tränar, slår sitt personliga rekord, eller rent av är snabbast av alla. Känslan när prestationen är avklarad är oslagbar och någonting som alla kan känna igen sig i, oavsett vilka förutsättningar man har. Att cykla Göteborggirot är att äga staden, loppet och livet, om så bara för en kort stund. Du som partner kan också vara med och äga staden under Göteborgsgirot 4–6 maj 2018, Västkustens största cykelfest! Då Hösten 2012 satt Christer Wallin som engagerad och före detta ordförande i GAIS och funderade på trender och utmaningar, med visionen om att skapa något nytt i Göteborg. I bakhuvudet hade han starten av Gothia Cup för många år sedan, då GAIS och Häcken startade det som kom att bli världens största ungdomsturnering i fotboll. GAIS hoppade av några år efter uppstarten. Han funderade också på Göteborgsvarvets explosion i antalet deltagare samt givetvis på evenemangsstaden Göteborg. Stora evenemang skapar turism, intäkter och puls till staden. Christer insåg också att det finns en tydlig samhällstrend som bygger på hälsa och välbefinnande.
