  • Sponsorship Effects on Music Festival Participants
    Copenhagen Business School 2014 MSoc.Sc.Service Management MASTER’S THESIS Sponsorship Effects on Music Festival Participants Victor Guedon David Gramm Kristensen February, 5th, 2014 Supervisor Helle Haurum 111 Pages / 267.755 Characters Abstract While worldwide investments in sole sponsorship fees were expected to reach $53.3 billion in 2013, findings from the academic research on sponsorships’ ability to impact customers’ perception of a sponsor are inconsistent; ranging from positive, small or ambiguous effects to negative or no effects at all. Thus, the objective of the current research was to contribute by researching if participation in a music festival, NorthSide 2013, would influence festival participants’ perception of the main sponsor Royal Beer. To do so, the chosen research design was a pre-post event quasi experimental design with independent samples. It was crucial to have both pre and post event measurements of event participants to investigate a potential change. Moreover, the quasi-experimental strategy was deemed relevant since it features the use of a control group to identify the source of an effect. Identified as one of the reasons for the inconsistent academic findings, the aim was to avoid conscious processing of the respondents by eliciting sponsorships or the two entities together, so that answers collected would account for the effects rather than respondents’ opinions about how this sponsorship affected them. In pursuance of this research several practical steps have been undertaken: a thorough literature review, a face-to-face interview of the Royal Beer brand manager, creation of a beer brand personality scale fitted to the Danish setting, a focus group to translate the brand personality facets and most importantly; the design and data collection of three distinct questionnaires that resulted in a total of 950 valid responses.

    Ivete Sangalo leva show especial ao Rock in Rio Lisboa para celebrar a sua 10ª atuação no festival Rock in Rio é nomeado para os prêmios de Melhor Festival do Mundo nos NME Awards e Melhor Festival Internacional pela Pollstar Awards Rio de Janeiro, 23 de janeiro de 2020 – A artista Ivete Sangalo é mais uma atração confirmada para o Rock in Rio Lisboa em um show que promete marcar a noite do dia 20 de junho, data que também sobem ao Palco Mundo Camila Cabello e Black Eyed Peas. A 9.ª edição do Rock in Rio Lisboa acontece nos dias 20, 21, 27 e 28 de junho, no Parque da Bela Vista. Ivete Sangalo é a única artista brasileira que já se apresentou em todas as edições em Portugal, além de estar presente no evento inédito na Torre de Belém que marcou os 15 anos do Rock in Rio Lisboa.

  • NOS Alive: Let There Be Rock!
    M-A-1713 0-04-17-0249-0 NOS Alive: Let there be Rock! Maio de 2017, depois de árduos meses de trabalho, Álvaro Covões, CEO da Everything is New (“EiN”), entra num táxi em Lisboa e na rádio, entre notícias, estado do trânsito e música ouve um anúncio dedicado ao NOS Alive, que se iria realizar entre 6 e 8 de julho no Passeio Marítimo de Algés, em Lisboa. Mas este não era um normal anúncio com o objetivo de vender bilhetes para o festival: era apenas um agradecimento a todos os espectadores que haviam, pela primeira vez em Portugal, esgotado a lotação total de um festival antes da sua abertura. “NOS Alive 2017: LOTAÇÃO ESGOTADA! Obrigado a todos aqueles que ajudaram a fazer deste um dos maiores festivais de sempre” O NOS Alive, que teve a sua primeira edição em 2007, rapidamente se tornou um dos mais cobiçados eventos do calendário de festivais europeu, atraindo grandes nomes da música bem como um número sem rival de espectadores estrangeiros no contexto dos festivais portugueses. A caminho da 11.ª edição, o NOS Alive tinha realizado um feito tão histórico quanto inédito ao esgotar a totalidade dos bilhetes dois meses antes de se ouvir o primeiro acorde no Passeio Marítimo de Algés. Mas este não era um trabalho realizado em algumas semanas ou meses: apesar de ainda não ter tido início a edição de 2017, já a de 2018 começava a ser planeada. Perante este sucesso, Álvaro Covões não conseguia deixar de começar a pensar no passo seguinte: como escalar a receita de sucesso do NOS Alive sem perder os seus elementos diferenciadores, de festival urbano, com uma experiência única e centrado no melhor cartaz? Qual o caminho a seguir? AESEinsight – Uso exclusivo para Alumni AESE #BusinessKnowledge Agosto/2021 Por outro lado, o NOS Alive representava uma parte de um plano de maior visão para a EiN: o de se tornar um player em todo o contexto turístico português.

  • September / 2018 There's 1 Year Left Before Rock in Rio: Organizers
    September / 2018 There’s 1 year left before Rock in Rio: organizers announce a day dedicated to metal – headlined by IRON MAIDEN along with The Scorpions, Megadeth and Sepultura in a night to remember The event has announced its official dates: September 27, 28 and 29, October 3, 4, 5 and 6 of 2019 in the City of Rock, at Barra da Tijuca. Rio de Janeiro, Sept 27, 2018 – Rock in Rio 2019 offers not only a night to remember, but also a historic event. After a metal-free festival at City of Rock in 2017, the Rock in Rio organizers are giving a special gift to the fans and announces, for 2019, a whole day dedicated to this musical genre. It will be a revival of the first edition in 1985, when the nights with these heavy metal bands brought over 300 thousand people to the event. Thirty-four years later, with the headliner Brits IRON MAIDEN, the Germans from Scorpions, the Americans from Megadeth and the Brazilians from Sepultura, Rock in Rio promises another memorable night on October 4th. These announcements marked the start of the one-year countdown to Rock in Rio 2019, that will take place on September 27, 28 and 29 and October 3, 4, 5 and 6 of 2019, in the City of Rock, at Barra da Tijuca (Parque Olímpico - Av. Salvador Allende). For Roberto Medina, president of Rock in Rio, announcing the whole line-up for the World Stage on the metal night at once is a way to honor this metal community that, in 2017, wasn’t represented.
