In a fast-moving industry where new theory and practice is implemented rapidly, this is essential reading for any advanced student or researcher in festivals and events. * Provides a contemporary look at the current issues in the field * Expertly edited and contributed to by an international group of subject specialists * Advances and emphasises the interrelationship of multidisciplinary academic approaches, contexts and research methodologies in festivals and events.
