Furthermore, studies reveal that festival experiences contain elements that can be used in building the festival brand; that in turn, increases loyalty, positive media coverage, ticket sales and sponsors’ interest. Th e rationale of the study lies in the need to explore the consumption of the festival experience to fi nd ways of facilitating the experience of the audience. Th e overall aim is to construct a model of the total festival experience consisting of elements present in festivalgoers’ experiences. Furthermore, the objective is to fi nd out possible reasons for the existence of the experience elements.
