  • Mass Gatherings, Health, and Well‐Being
    Social Issues and Policy Review, Vol. 00, No. 0, 2020, pp. 1--32 DOI: 10.1111/sipr.12071 Mass Gatherings, Health, and Well-Being: From Risk Mitigation to Health Promotion ∗ Nick Hopkins University of Dundee Stephen Reicher University of St. Andrews Mass gatherings are routinely viewed as posing risks to physical health. How- ever, social psychological research shows mass gathering participation can also bring benefits to psychological well-being. We describe how both sets of outcomes can be understood as arising from the distinctive forms of behavior that may be found when people—even strangers—come to define themselves and each other in terms of a shared social identity. We show that many of the risks and benefits of participation are products of group processes; that these different outcomes can have their roots in the same core processes; and that knowledge of these process provides a basis for health promotion interventions to mitigate the risks and max- imize the benefits of participation. Throughout, we offer practical guidance as to how policy makers and practitioners should tailor such interventions. Mass gatherings take many forms: large-scale religious pilgrimages (e.g., the hajj), sporting events (e.g., the World Cup), music festivals (e.g., Glaston- bury), regional and national commemorative events (e.g., St Patrick’s Day cele- brations), etc. Some are short-lived, others span days, even weeks. Some attract a few thousand, others, hundreds of thousands. Perhaps the most striking of all are the Kumbh Mela and the Magh Mela, each of which attract millions of Hindu pil- grims to the banks of the Ganga (north India) for a full month (Buzinde, Kalavar, Kohli, & Manuel-Navarrete, 2014; Hopkins et al., 2015; Maclean, 2008).

  • The Economic Impact of Festivals on Small Towns
    The Economic Impact of Festivals on Small Towns Gwen Shelton Tennessee Certified Economic Developer Certification Program April 2017 1 Abstract Rural areas have encountered numerous changes to the economic and social fabric of their communities over recent decades. As a result they have suffered declining economies and shifting demographic characteristics, therefore they have looked to tourism and specifically events as foci of rejuvenation. However much of the research in this area has been directed towards the economic impacts of tourism and overlooked the social consequences that tourism and events create. 2 Introduction Background Tourists visit places in search of an interesting environment and plenty of activities they can involve themselves in. There are various activities in the State of Tennessee that tourists can engage in. The State of Tennessee offer tourists a good natural adventure with beauty, music, rivers, and ancient mountains. Whether tourists visit Western, Middle, or Eastern Tennessee’s Regions, they will experience small communities’ festival spirit, camaraderie, and a rich culture rooted in country music, Rock n Roll, culinary delights, shopping, agri-tourism, sports, outdoor recreation, aquariums, museums, and amusement parks for all to enjoy. In addition to the entertainment value, Federal, State and Local Governments rely heavily on tourism for real estate development, tax revenues, and employment generation. Studies are now showing that tourism creates jobs, both through direct employment within the tourism industry and indirectly in sectors such as retail and transportation. When these people spend their wages on goods and services, it leads to what is known as the “multiplier effect,” creating more jobs.
