O contributo dos festivais de música no desenvolvimento da actividade turística

Abstract

Events are an important alternative for destinations and for tourism as an economic activity in the implementation and diversification of the tourist offer. These currently have motivated people to make their journeys, as well as to extend their stay in a certain destination. In this context, this monograph aims to analyze the contribution of music festivals in the development of tourist activity, that is, to what extent music festivals can be a reason for the displacement of tourists and visitors to a given destination. To materialize the work, a bibliographical review was used, where a theoretical survey of literary works that address the subject under analysis was made. Therefore, it was possible, from a theoretical point of view, to understand that music festivals have been the target of a lot of adherence and that they constitute an important element, where tour operators or agents can resort in times of lower tourist flow. And that their inclusion in tourism can bring economic, social and cultural benefits to everyone involved. As a result of the research, it can be seen that music festivals as events can positively contribute to the development of tourist activity and can be an element to be considered in the local tourist offer.
