  • Traditional Festival As a Tourism Event- Stakeholders' Influence On
    Traditional Festival as a Tourism Event: Stakeholders’ Influence on the Dynamics of the Sendai Tanabata Festival in Japan YUJIE SHEN JAP4693 - Master’s Thesis in Modern Japan Master’s programme 30 credits Autumn 2020 Department of Culture Studies and Oriental Languages (IKOS) University of Oslo December 15, 2020 Summary A new method of analyzing traditional Japanese festivals (matsuri) based on event studies is presented. Stakeholders’ influence and their interactions redefine narratives of tradition. In Japan, the urbanization of society has transformed matsuri into tourism-oriented events. However, the influence of touristification on tradition has not yet been fully explored. This paper offers a close examination of a case study about the dynamics of the Sendai Tanabata Festival. Local newspaper archives were used as the primary source and adopted the stake- holder theory and social exchange theory from event studies to examine stakeholders’ power and interests, as well as their relationships. The results discovered that it is the conflicts of festival stakeholders throughout the years that shaped the Sendai Tanabata Festival to what it is like today. Although festival organizers and local residents are key players, both domestic and foreign tourists’ influence should also not be neglected. The inheritance of traditional cul- ture depends on its original community i.e. local residents. Depopulation and aging social problems have shifted the weight of festival ownership to tourists, as they contribute to the economic revitalization and regional development. As a result, festival organizers tend to tai- lor the festival to tourists’ tastes, which often leads to change or loss of tradition’s original festive meaning or the invention of a new tradition.

Japan Japan is home to almost 128 million people spread out on over 3,000 islands. The four main islands, Honshu, Hokkaido, Kyushu, and Shikoku, account for 97% of Japan’s total land area. Over 70% of the country is forested, mountainous, and unsuitable for agricultural or residential use. The beauty of nature, undisturbed by humans, will surround and astound you. Legend attributes the creation of Japan to the sun goddess, from whom the emperors were thought to be descended. In acknowledgement of this, the characters that make up Japan’s name translate to “sun-origin” and give Japan its nickname of the “Land of the Rising Sun.” Japan’s culture has evolved greatly over the years from its traditional ways to its current culture, which includes influences from Europe, North American, and the rest of Asia.
