  • ANDERTON Music Festival Capitalism
    1 Music Festival Capitalism Chris Anderton Abstract: This chapter adds to a growing subfield of music festival studies by examining the business practices and cultures of the commercial outdoor sector, with a particular focus on rock, pop and dance music events. The events of this sector require substantial financial and other capital in order to be staged and achieve success, yet the market is highly volatile, with relatively few festivals managing to attain longevity. It is argued that these events must balance their commercial needs with the socio-cultural expectations of their audiences for hedonistic, carnivalesque experiences that draw on countercultural understanding of festival culture (the countercultural carnivalesque). This balancing act has come into increased focus as corporate promoters, brand sponsors and venture capitalists have sought to dominate the market in the neoliberal era of late capitalism. The chapter examines the riskiness and volatility of the sector before examining contemporary economic strategies for risk management and audience development, and critiques of these corporatizing and mainstreaming processes. Keywords: music festival; carnivalesque; counterculture; risk management; cool capitalism A popular music festival may be defined as a live event consisting of multiple musical performances, held over one or more days (Shuker, 2017, 131), though the connotations of 2 the word “festival” extend much further than this, as I will discuss below. For the purposes of this chapter, “popular music” is conceived as music that is produced by contemporary artists, has commercial appeal, and does not rely on public subsidies to exist, hence typically ranges from rock and pop through to rap and electronic dance music, but excludes most classical music and opera (Connolly and Krueger 2006, 667).

  • Using Green Man Festival As a Case Study
    An Investigation to identify how festivals promotional techniques have developed over the years – using Green Man Festival as a case study Victoria Curran BA (hons) Events Management Cardiff Metropolitan University April 2018 i Declaration “I declare that this Dissertation has not already been accepted in substance for any degree and is not concurrently submitted in candidature for any degree. It is the result of my own independent research except where otherwise stated.” Name: Victoria Curran Signed: ii Abstract This research study was carried out in order to explore the different methods of marketing that Green Man Festival utilises, to discover how successful they are, and whether they have changed and developed throughout the years. The study intended to critically review the literature surrounding festivals and festival marketing theories, in order to provide conclusions supported by theory when evaluating the effectiveness of the promotional strategies. It aimed to discover how modern or digital marketing affected Green Man’s promotional techniques, to assess any identified promotional techniques and identify any connections with marketing theory, to investigate how they promote the festival towards their target market, and to finally provide recommendations for futuristic methods of promotion. The dissertation was presented coherently, consisting of five chapters. The first chapter was the introduction, providing a basic insight into the topics involved. The second contains a critical literature review where key themes were identified; the third chapter discussed the methodology used whilst the fourth chapter presents the results that were discovered, providing an analysis and discussion. The final chapter summarises the study, giving recommendations and identifying any limitations of the study.

    WE’RE FESTIVAL VETERANS Getting value for money from your festival branding activity requires research, planning, creativity, and an appreciation that you’re venturing into an environment where brands can be welcomed, tolerated, ignored or vilified. We have a long history of helping clients win cut through at festivals around the world, these include: R ECOVE FESTIVALS NOT RIGHT F OR YOU? THINK AGAIN With younger festival goers increasingly priced out of the game, today’s festival audience largely comprises Millenials, people in their thirties. This also explains the increasing number of festivals catering for families, cultural, literary and culinary enthusiasts. It also means an opening of the way for brands that previously might have never thought about investing in a festival. And a growing number are realising this is an environment that can yield results; there’s a lot more to festivals than mud, booze, rock and roll. KNOW YOUR FESTIVAL HEDONISTIC Global Gathering, Big Chill, Exit, Tribal Gathering, Tommorowland, Boom Town, 2000Trees MAINSTREAM Glastonbury, V Festival, Big Day Out, Tea in the Park, Oxygen, Isle of Wight, Wireless, Reading & Leeds Festivals FAMILY FRIENDLY/ CULTURAL Secret Garden Party, Sonar, Green Man, WOMAD, Camp Bestival, Big Feastival, Wilderness, Somersault Brands that can work their way into the festival environment in a natural, creative way can engage this audience while they’re in a highly receptive state. To do this, there are a couple of simple principles we employ: 1. IDENTIFY ‘WHY’ Identifying your ‘why’ is all about finding a festival with which your brand can legitimately demonstrate a shared purpose, common ethics and values.

Many festivalgoers are likely to consume large quantities of alcohol over two to three days and then quite possibly drive home the morning after the event. But it’s not only people attending festivals who are susceptible to morning after drink driving; during the summer months large amounts of alcohol are often consumed at weddings, BBQs and evening parties. Our campaign highlights the issue of morning after drink driving in an informative and non-threatening manner. We provide people with information to help them make an informed decision as to whether they will be safe and legal to drive the ‘morning after’. STENNIK | TWO RESoURcES For several years the ‘Morning After’ campaign has Summer provided low-cost resources to enable road safety teams and other stakeholders to remind drivers about of this issue.
